Forums - Nintendo Discussion - What was the last Wii U game you bought? Any games in 2019?

miedek on 02 December 2018

Of major releases it was probably Splatoon, i might've picked some virtual console or indie game afterwards, but either way it was in mid/late 2015, i didn't buy anything since then. And i got the console in late 2013, so it became a dust collector in just about 2 years. Not a great lifespan for any system.

I bought Captain Toad Treasure Tracker for Wii U in 2016 as well as Skyward Sword on the Wii channel built into the Wii U around the same time.

Fire Emblem Advance is the last game I bought, around summer last year (2017)
Xenoblade Chronicles X is the last retail game I bought.
Wii Fit U is the last game I played on it.
Ogre Battle 64 is the last traditional game I played on it.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Xenoblade Chronicles X last month. Got it brand new on clearance. Only put a few hours in so far, but just played some more today.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE on launch.

Wow, that game actually came out.

Must have flown completely under the radar.... Well! That's one game I hope they remake for Switch.

One of my favorite games on that console. A remake would be great.

I´m still hoping for a sequel, though we all know that will not happen due to the low sales of the original....

...which is kind of sad... the WiiU did not have many RPGs, and the game is very, very good. I bought the collector´s edition right at launch.

I bought BotW at launch. Haven't purchased anything since, probably won't buy anything else.

I love playing on the Gamepad, but I guess the Switch is not different. I can either play on the TV or Switch right?

 

Yeah you can, but I don't know it's not the same as the Wii U. The U just has a special kind of charm to me at least

I liked the Wii U a lot.  But, that gamepad seemed so dated, even at launch.  Paper thin tablets were becoming popular, and here comes a game system with a giant, bulky controller thing with a (relatively) small screen in it.  It just wasn't cool.  It's like the tech world passed them by during their R&D stage, but they decided to run with it anyway.
