Well I can play 2 of those games on Xbox One (Rayman and Guacamelee) and 2 on my 360 (Bayonetta and Guacamelee). That 's half your games I don't need a Wii U for. LOZ and Smash are essentially ports of games I can play on other systems before they came out for less and 3D World is just mission pack sequel. Bayonetta 2 is ok but that's all you have to show for it after 2 years on the market, a full years advantage! Metacritic is honestly irrelevant, sure it's a gauge but it's hardly the last word on the quality or originality of a game. If it were than Wii U wouldn't have been the first horse in the race now trailing in last place. You also mention 1 or 2 games per genre as if that's supposed to last them the droughts that the Wii U is known for, there is no third party support so you sit around and maybe 1 or 2 retail releases will come out a month. Like Kart Racing well there is only one to choose from, like fighting game, hope you like smash cause that's it. Like hack and slash, well we got one and a port of another. LOZ, well that will be another year to an original title, like third parties, we aren't getting any of those this generation. Xbox One has FPS Halo MCC (I assume ports are ok since you used LOZ), Sunset Overdrive, Destiny, Far Cry 4, COD AW, TItanfall Survival Horror Evil Within, Dead Rising 3, Alien Isolation 3rd person/Open World GTA 5, Minecraft, Watch Dogs, Dragon Age Inquisition, Assassin's Creed Unity, Project Spark, Warframe Fighting Killer Instinct 1 and 2 Sports FIFA 15 NHL 15, NBA 15, NBA 2k15, Pro Evolution Soccer 2015, WWE 2015 Madden 2015 Racing Forza 2 RPG Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor Borderlands Stealth Styx Adventure D4 Ryse Platformers/Kids Lego Gotham 3, Disney Infinity, Skylanders TT Tower Defense Defense Grid 2 Platformer Rayman Legends, Guacamelee, Max COB There is over a dozen genres most of those games you won't find on a Nintendo console and those are all games that are out now, give the ONE another year and it will blow away the Wii U lineup of what...the next six months all I see as confirmed are Kirby and Captain Toad and maybe Splatoon and another Yoshi, that's all that's been confirmed for the first 6 months of next year, come on! And I'm barely touching on all the great 2D and other great arcade games that cover generes from Pinball to Toy Soldiers. Enjoy getting your bimonthly game and always having to pay full price while I get numerous games each month for free and for a reduced price which was the point of my post to begin with.

This guy can play Bayonetta 2 on his XBOX360. What a miracle!
I don't want crappy games even if they're free. Though I did get Wind Waker HD, Pikmin 3, Bayonetta 1 and Super Mario 3D Land for free. ;) So much for paying full price, huh?
What does the XBONE have lined up for exclusives next year? Do tell me. If you want to play third party games you're better off with a PS4.
Wii U has Zelda (action adventure), Splatoon (third person shooter), Xenoblade Chronicles (jrpg), Yoshi's Woolly World (2.5D platformer), Kirby (2.5D platformer), Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (I live in Europe), Star Fox, Mario Kart 8 dlc pack 2, Fire Emblem x SMT, Mario Party 10, Mario Maker, Devil's Third (though I don't think this looks like a fun game at all), etc.
Plus I'm sure Nintendo is still holding a couple of surprises in their hand. ;)
And since I also have a 3DS there's also Youkai Watch, Bravely Second, Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Saphire, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, STEAM, etc.
That's about 17 games that are currently announced already, of course I won't be buying all of them, but still plenty coming.
I can play all your games on my PC.
