Platformers are my favourite genre, luckily on wiiu we have plenty of great ones, and 2D platformers are what i grew up on, and no they dont belong on handhelds

DK:TF. Great levels, extremely tight controls, very challenging, and loads of fun :D

DK and rayman, i cant decide. those are my favorite games on wii U(i love 2d plataformers).

Rayman Legends

Such a tough choice.

I'd probably give it to Tropical Freeze. The difficulty was spot on and there were plenty of varied and novel stages.

That said, NSMBU was also fantastic. Despite the series suffering from massive franchise fatigue, I still found the level design to be fresh and fun, which is a pretty amazing feat IMO.

NSLU should be on the list too, it's a speedrunner's delight.

Man, that soundtrack was so orgasmic its hard for me to even pick a fav track.

It'd be one of these three though:

Not the same thing.

Dk:TF the unforgettable level design and the top notch soundtrack

I'd say that you can skip NSMBU! The game is very fun, but it's probably a better idea to get only TF and Legends!

Oh snap! I was almost going to post that, then at the last minute I deleted it and posted the Seashore War one instead.

I love the above-water version of the Amiss Abyss tune, too. It's such a blink-and-you'll-miss-it song but it's so warm and expressive. Love it!

Almost posted Scorch 'n Torch, too. Another favourite, for sure. I would have LOVED a Scorch 'n Torch level in the new Smash. Picture that music while you play in an arena where the upper platforms are branches that turn to ash throughout the match.
