You forgot Captain Toad! No can forget theirs captains!

Besides Captain Falcon....


That's a 2014 game though. I was strictly talking about the 2015 lineup. 2014 is still arguably a bit weak. All we really have for this year are Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta, Smash Bros, and Captain Toad. Though I do think those will all be awesome games (well except maybe Hyrule Warriors).

Oh dang you're right! I thought it was 2015. My mistake.

I think at this point if you're buying a Nintendo console you're accepting the fact that third party support will be limited. Honestly, this has been the case since arguably way back to the N64, or the GCN for sure. I don't understand why it keeps getting made a big deal of. You buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games, plain and simple. Even the casual buyers that flocked to Wii bought it for the Nintendo games (Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Wii Play, Mario Kart Wii). Why are we still dwelling on it? Let's accept that that's how it is for a Nintendo console and move on so we can look at how awesome the first party lineup is currently looking.


the problem is,this makes WiiU a console for Nintendo only gamers or peeople who buy more than one console.The typical one console gamer will go to PS4/Xone/PC.

imo WiiU will be like N64/gamecube,a console with some amazing gems but few people have.

The N64 and GCN did more than respectable in terms of sales back in their day. I mean GCN essentially tied Xbox WW. People need to remember last gen was a HUGE anomaly in terms of total hardware sales. The fact that all 3 big systems could eventually pass 100m units sold, or close to that, is insane. That's never come close to happening before and I'm sure never will again. Uusally we have one big 60m+ home console seller per gen and the others do around 20-30m. Anything over 20m lifetime WW for Wii U is fine for Nintendo to keep doing what they're doing and stay in the hardware business.

Remember when the Wii U's 2014 line up was amazing last E3? Yeah, remember that feeling.


It technically still is.  Also, Xenoblade Chronicles X was one of the games people were expecting 2014.  

This year's line up is/was:

Mario Kart 8
Super Smash Bros 4
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Bayonetta 2
Watch Dogs

and a few other games were speculated as possible 2014 releases at the time.

Add Captain Toad and Hyrule Warrios in there and I guess the 2014 lineup isn't too bad either. Still 2015's is looking on a whole other level.

Thats cuz we thought some games come out this year at the time :-/

2014= 2 biggest IP, and some low-mid tier games. Next year with X + Yoshi pushed back, i believe it'll be a much better year. we'll see soon enough (pls dont let me down :0)

OT: You forgot Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem and Devil's Third

Is SMTxFE still a thing. We saw nothing since the initial reveal, didn't we? Came any confirmation it is still in development?

 

If yes, I would be happy, SMTxFE beats everything else for me.



3DS-FC: 4511-1768-7903 (Mii-Name: Mnementh), Nintendo-Network-ID: Mnementh, Switch: SW-7706-3819-9381 (Mnementh)

my greatest games: 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 

10 years greatest game event!

bets: [GTA6]

SMTxFE and Devil's Third doesn't have a date. Both are TBD. Althought I expect DT for next year.

Now, we need to see how many of those are delayed. My fear is that the first one to be could be Zelda.

This is my take for the dates:

Yoshi's Wooly World - February 2015
Splatoon - March 2015
Mario Maker - April 2015
Devil's Third - August 2015
Xenoblade Chronicles X - September 2015
Kirby and the Rainbow Curse - October 2015
Zelda U - November 2015

Star Fox U - delayed to 2016
Project Guard and Giant Robot (maybe) - 2016
Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem - 2016

And there are some other games to be announced and dated:
Animal Crossing
Metroid HD
Retro's next project
Third DKC game
Next Level game for Wii U



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile


Now if only they get there marketing to knock it out the park the WiiU can get itself back in the race proper.



This is the Game of Thrones

Where you either win
