Hopefully Starfox, but now I am not holding out any hope. My plans to get a Wii U though haven't fallen short though. Just need one more big game to take the dive this year and Splatoon might be it.

What games will you get for WiiU once you get one?
For me, I'm only interested in 5 games as it stads now. Mario Kart, Smash, Xenoblade, Zelda and SMT X FE, so I'm having a hard time justifying the purchase at the currebt price.
Zelda is far off, so I'll wait and see if there's a price drop or something.


X, Mario Kart, Bayonetta 2 & Super Smash Bros right now. Perhaps owning a Wii U will open my mind back up into owning a traditional Mario game again.

Star fox

Most likely Starfox. Fatal Frame will come out in october most likely but it could come out later.

Lots of smaller games.

Star Fox, Xenoblade, Fatal Frame, Rodea, Yoshi, Mario Maker, etc. I assume Star Fox and one E3 surprise will be pushed as the big holiday games.

Lots of amazing games like the ones listed above, plus an E3 surprise or two, and we might actually end up being glad that Zelda isn't out this year. I wouldn't have the time or the money to play even half of the games above this fall/ holiday.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.

"Bayonetta" and "W101" are also stellar. "DKC: Tropical Freeze" is the best platformer in ages - no lie. Wish we would've gotten some dish on "Star Fox/Devil's Third" during the last Direct. DT might be getting the boot to 2016 in the U.S. Seems strange, since Itagaki keeps claiming the game is "very close" to completion.

The muthuffaka link collection.

A remastered with all Zelda games, released on 20 November 2015.

Always imagined that for their next home console launch. If Zelda Wii U ain't coming til 2016, Zelda NX ain't coming til 2020.

Star Fox, Pokken, Animal Crossing, Project Robot....
Star Fox is a given, then two of the above. One will be pushed to 2016.

50$ price drop and wii sports resort club(also bundled).

Nintendo delayed Galaxy 2 so it wouldn't clash with NSMBWii, for that reason I wouldn't bet on a 3D mario game (because Mario Maker)
