I might have completely forgotten about Luigi's Mansion and Fire Emblem (hopefully I get them one day too), but I don't see how any of the other ones are "huge" games. EDIT: Bravely Default maybe, but I consider that a 2014 release.

As for the Kirby game, are you just saying it's eshopware because you don't feel like it's worthy of being sold at retail or is this actually going to be the case? Because as far as I know, it's going to be a retail game and it's coming from one of Nintendo's biggest (though niche) franchises. If Star Fox actually comes out next year (obviously not gonna happen), that's 6 games considering what has been announced already.

The two biggest releases of 2013 for the 3DS were both announced within that year. Sure, it takes a lot less time to develop games for the 3DS than the Wii U, but there's quite a lot more 2015 to be shown - we just don't know how big they'll be.


Bravely Default is a 2013 release everywhere but the US. It's 2013. Castlevania LOS was a big game. Pokemon MD was a big game. Professor Layton was a big game. I don't see how they wouldn't be in the same catagory as the others, while it's completely obvious why the Kirby game wouldn't be in the same catagory as the others. It has nothing to do with it being a Kirby game. It just has the game design of a much smaller eshop title. I don't even think Yoshi should be on the list of "big" releases, but I'm letting that one go because I counted DKC:TF in 2014 when I didn't want to.

And the Wii U hasn't had any such surprises like the 3DS. The only new games we learned of this year for this year on the Wii U is that Toad game. And that Xenoblade was being delayed. I highly doubt we'll be getting any news for 2015 other than a title being delayed, and maybe SMT x FE actually coming out next year, but that's literally just me being hopeful.
