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

I buy a lot of third party titles for Wii U:

AC3
AC4
Disney Infinity
Need for Speed Most Wanted
Black Ops
Ghosts
Splinter Cell
Sniper Elite
Deus Ex
Rayman Legends
Monster Hunter
Resident Evil Revelations
Mass Effect
NBa2k13

That's just off the top of my head. I have 96 games for Wii U, most are indie and third party and 33 are vc games.

Ok, We all bought Wii U to play great Nintendo franchises and exclusives, but how many of you have supported 3rd party efforts.. here are my Wii U 3rd party games.

Zombi U- Injustice Gods among us- Mass Effect 3-Batman AA-Darksiders 2- Need for Speed- Deus EX- Splinter Cell- AC3- 007 legends- Black ops 2- Sniper Elite V2- Spiderman- Your shape (for the wife honest)- Rayman Legends- Tekken Tag- Sonic Lost world- W101- Lego City Undercover.

Eshop- Trine 2- Zen Pinball 2- Nano Assault neo- Duck Tales

 

A good chunk of those purchased during the drought lol. Any other Wii U owners out there buy 3rd party??

Retail
Lego City undercover (needs more frames per second...)
DarkSiders 2
ZombiU (great use of the gamepad)
Sonic Lost World (haven't played it yet)
Monster Hunter 3 (not really any effort put into it but I got it in a buy 2 get a third one for free  promotion)
Tekken  (why is everything unlocked from the start?)
Sonic Allstars Racing  Transformed
Wonderful 101 (is a Platinum Games game and imho should not count as Nintendo)
Rayman Legends was going to buy it when it was supposed to come out but since its a multiplatform game now there is no need to hurry at all I will wait for it to hit 10 bucks. (already was 15 so wont take long to reach 10)
Assassins Creed 3 was going to buy it then I found out its a shit port.
Batman Arkham City was going to buy it then I found out its a shit port.


Will probably buy WatchDogs unless it looks exactly like a PS360 version and/or runs with half the frames per second. (which would just mean devs could not be bothered to optimize like  they could not be bothered with AC3 and AC4)

 

Eshop 

Trine 2, Mighty Switch Force 
Want to buy Nano Assault but its to expensive for being so short imo





I try to avoid mainstream games as much as possible. But sometimes when they are cheap I still buy them as long as there is not a better deal for the PC version (I play multiplats on PC when possible. You get more bang for your buck with all the mods etc)

WiiU is the first system that makes me go  "hmm console or PC? WiiU has this and that extra feature (like 5 player mode in Sonic Allstars Racing Transformed"

Up untill now it always was "console version is shit compared to PC and is more expensive. Especially thanks to steam sales. (Farcry3, AssCreed3, MaxPayne3, Hitman Absolution, Bioshock Infinite, Sleeping Dogs, Dishonored all were 5-7 bucks)"






Splinter Cell Blacklist
TW101 (?)
Batman Arkham City
NFS Most Wanted U
COD BLOPS2
Just Dance 4 (not for me :))
Rayman Legends
Deus Ex

Nano Assault Neo
Trine 2
Little Inferno
Bit Trip Runner 2
Streetfighter 2 Turbo



I have bought these 3rd party games for Wii U


Zombie U (which actually came bundled)
Assasins Creed III
Monster Hunter Tri
Assasins Creed IV

I'm planing to buy Rayman Legends before the end of the year

I also have the following first party games

New Super Mario U
Nintendoland
Super Mario 3D World

I'm planing to buy Pikmin 3 and The Wind Waker within a couple of months.


I'm actually quite proud that I've got more thirdparty games than firstparty so far. But I think that will change early next spring.



I haven't bought any boxed 3rd party games.

But I have backed these Kickstarter projects that will make it to Wii U:

Shantae ½ Genie Hero
Dex
Armikrog.
Hyper Light Drifter
Shovel Knight
Mighty No. 9

Only Rayman Legends. And Lego City Undercover if you count that as third party.



Yep.

4 third party games, out of 6 total; Lego City, Darksiders 2, and Nano Assault Neo + Trine 2 from the e-Shop.

1st party I have WW HD and Mario 3D World.
Well, also Metroid, Kirby and F-Zero, but I don't count those as they were 30 cents deals.
