Funny, Project Giant Robot still listed for the first half of 2015 in EU and NA. Fatal Frame, XenoX and Devil's Third still 2015 (zero info about month or quarter though). Only Zelda U listed as "TBD" in all three regions. Why they not put "2016" here?


After seeing that chart we should all just be thankful the Wii U is even getting games, as holy shit they just left the 3DS out to die.

What do you mean? 3DS is still getting more games than the WiiU. Even if 3rd parties are the decisive factor, they are not letting the 3DS to die. Hell, most 3DS heavy hitters will come in 2016 (Fire Emblem, Youkai Watch arriving to the west...).



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Uh look at the chart? All of 2 3DS games for the rest of the year in the U.S. versus Wii U's 7, 9 if we want to count the project games which I guess we should if we're counting a port/remake and a cheap spinoff.

Both systems have a similar software schedule. If the WiiU is getting more Nintendo games than the 3DS is because Nintendo are the only ones supporting the system. WiiU needs more Nintendo's attention than the 3DS.

Winter 2015 for Japan only. No way it will come worldwide earlier than 2016.



Wii U is a fail (at least from a commercial standpoint) and IMO its catalogue too.

Didn't even know half those games existed lol. Overall quanity might be even, however the 3DS line-up is pretty niche and Nintendo didn't quite put in it's best with 3 out of it's only 5 being remakes, and how many of those games released already as there seem to be huge gaps after Puzzles n Dragons.



It's just annoying



Good job, Nintendo.



nice

Xenoblade X has been deep in translation for at least 5 months according to Nintendo

 

Its NOT being delayed



Considering the system is used for just 1st party, this staggered release schedule is concerning



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
