Forums - Nintendo - Wii U: Best Launch Line-up Ever?

Tagged games:

I just saw that PS3/X360/PC is getting the Mass Effect Trilogy. *laughs*

It's actually funny how sad this is. Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater 3D all over again.



Around the Network

pretty much every launch has "ports" of older games...its kinda ridiculous that you wouldnt even include them.



To me, just like vita... I think it's too much, honestly.

Space those releases more intelligently would be my advice. But I guess, at least through march, wii u still has some ammunition - Pikmin, Monster Hunter, Lego Underground, etc...

BTW, it's not only ports, many (if not all) are improved versions.

Yes, since when multiplpats dont count? oh right its Nintendo

no, not "oh it's nintendo", more like "ohh i already have that game when wii u comes out" because i buy a console at launch for games i can't find anywhere else and i don't buy a console at launch for much money to play games i can also play on what i already have as long as there isn't a big difference to make it important for me.

so i would say for people who don't have a ps3/360, the launch lineup could be the best ever but i don't really know them for all other concoles. for people who have a 360/ps3 the lineup is not better as other console launches but also not worse. for me as example, the 360 launch was better because of kameo, perfect dark, pgr3 and condemned (not for the launch games i already had on ps2/xbox) but for other people it might be different.

but i believe i will never understand why some people always think people have to have something against "their" company just because people look different at something as others.



Yes.

6/10- the only exclusive that seems great is Zombie U



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

cris
i dont care if you already own those games or not, objectively, its the best launch lineup ever, if you dont like it for whatever reason its your problem

Yes

and no

There's two ways to look at it.

There's the straight list:

Launch day Wii U games

Call of Duty: Black Ops II
Skylanders Giants
Transformers Prime
Wipeout 3
Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two
FIFA Soccer 13
Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Wii U Edition
New Super Mario Bros. U
Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge
Nintendo Land
Sing Party
Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper
Darksiders II
Assassin's Creed III
ESPN Sports Connection
Just Dance 4
Rabbids Land
Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2013
ZombiU
Scribblenauts Unlimited
Game Party Champions
Batman: Arkham City Armored Edition

Probably the biggest selection of titles available for any system on launch ever.


Then there's the list minus current gen ports:

Launch day Wii U 'next gen' games

New Super Mario Bros. U
Nintendo Land
Sing Party
ESPN Sports Connection
Rabbids Land
Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2013
ZombiU
Scribblenauts Unlimited
Game Party Champions

Not nearly as impressive. And frankly there's nothing really 'next gen' about any of these except that they aren't on any current gen systems. Still huge thanks to Ubisoft for the massive launch support or this list would be half the size.

Now show me a launch with more potential, it seems like you are trying to put this launch down by pointing out the ports as if every other launch has not had ALOT of ports lol.

ME3 has been pushed back from the Wii's launch.

I mean, don't necessarily get your hopes up

But I wouldn't be surprised if we hear some pleasant news soon



yes it is the best launch yet!

I have no idea how I am going to be able to play all the games I want and find time for work :S
