Nintendo - RPGs on the Wii U - View Post

Nintendo home consoles haven't exactly been good consoles for RPG's since the N64 (which was absolutely abysmal on this aspect). So considering Xenoblade Chronicles X (which looks awesome as hell), Child of Light, the inevitability of a Paper Mario, Fire Emblem x SMT appearing someday and maaaaaybe a Crystal Chronicles someday, I'd say the Wii U is already in a confortable position =P

I wouldn't expect more than that though. Out of the big names, Dragon Quest is the one that would be most likely, but DQXI will either be a 3DS or a PS4 game (at least I'm fairly sure of it)

This sadly...

Albeit the 3DS is a great RPG system. The Nintendo Home consoles however suffer from an RPG definiancy since the N64 days. The Wii is sort of an expection, but still wouldn't even say it had the BEST RPGs in the seventh generation.

However combined with the Wii, Wii U, and eShop games, maybe that's enough to satisfy your taste.
