Forums - Nintendo - How many 3rd party games have you bought for Wii U?

Off topic, the old myth is Wii U is sold at a loss and becomes profitable when one unit of software is sold? (im sure i read that somewhere) if that is true then Ninty have done well out of us VG charterz and our extensive game libraries. It seems you guys are supporting 1st,2nd,3rd parties and indies too :) great show.

I guess the same goes for VGC Vita owners I'm starting to think we're the only one's who actually buy games for Wii U and Vita Pity the rest of the market isn't half as dedicated as we are and seems to only follow a massive hypetrain, like the PS4One one :-/

 

Guys, I really believe that W101 and Bayo 2 aren't even close to being 3rd party. If a game is made completely for Nintendo's money, it's not 3rd party.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

AC3 ; Darksiders 2 ; ZombiU ; MH3U

I plan to buy Bayonetta2 when it comes out, and Watch Dogs if it's a decent port.

Same here. Like with Arkham Origins, Need for Speed Most Wanted, and Assassin's Creed 4, whether I buy Watch Dogs or not depends on the quality of the Wii U port.



Just bought Batman Arkham City: Armored Edition for $20.. Can't beat it! I'll probably grab Arkham Orgins too if I really enjoy this one. Also going to pick up Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate soon, and Rayman Legends once it hits a budget price. Slight chance I'll buy Watch Dogs if the gamepad controllers are mindblowing, but most likely I'll get that for my beastly gaming PC.

For as critical as I am of third parties, there are plenty of good ones on Nintendo consoles. I probably owned more third party games for Wii than Nintendo games.. and I KNOW I had more for Gamecube (since Nintendo's offerings were weaker than usual on that console).

Damn thats a great discount D: 

sucks to be in a 3rd world country you know, here is still full price. I guess the only way to get it cheap is from the eshop

Ok, which third world country? I live in Colombia and you can get it cheap (not as much as the link I provided, but cheap).

Really? im from colombia too!

Aca no se consigue nada barato a menos que vivas en bogota ;-; A lo mucho por mercadolibre



my Nintendo consoles library is more or less always 50% 3rd party 50% Nintendo...
which is around 10-12 games each for N64-GC and Wii
Nintendo always gets good 3rd party stuff. not much but good nonethless



ZombiU
Black Ops 2

For Christmas I am getting:
Ghosts
Assassins Creed
Wonderful101 (if it counts)

I will be getting:
Watch Dogs
Bayonetta 2



Just ordered Skylanders SwapForce starter pack off of Zavvi for £60, SM3DW will have to wait until next month now, just downloaded the free Lost World DLC and can prob buy Coster Crazy Deluxe this month or may buy a second controller pro, it's only money, spend it while you got it :)
