Nintendo cant pump out enough games by their self to have a "great year" no 1st party can even come close. Even if your entire list came true it would only be an "ok" year and most of those aren't going to happen.

Also NX is a home console and will release in 2017. If Nintendo pulls the plug on the 3DS they are VERY foolish. Its going to be the last 50+ million handheld seller ever.

Most of the games on that list are imaginary. NX needs to come at Christmas, Wii U flopped, and the sooner anintendo dumps it the sooner we're getting something more exciting.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Christmass this year!?

That's impossible, I am not sure that they can launch new console next year.

And Wii U is pretty exciting console for Wii U owners, it have some of the best Nintendo games ever.

Well, "Yay Zelda", but this is a Deja Vu.

A year ago we said 2015 would be awesome, but then proceeded into becoming the least interesting year in gaming in the last decade.

Let's not forget about Retro's upcoming game, but I think it'll most likely be a 2017 title.

You didn't add Tantalus's AAA port. (which could be 2015 but we don't know yet)
Also, NX will be a replacement for the 3DS. and if it a replacement for the Wii U, it won't be released until 2017.

I read something recently which lead me to suspect that Animal Crossing will not be on Wii U. Something about the producer thinking the series is better suited to handhelds. And considering how much work it would take to update all of the assets from 3DS resolutions to HD, I wouldn't be surprised to see it skip Wii U.

I'm fairly confident of a Animal Crossing for Wii U coming out next year

Wii U needs some heavy hitters to get sales up in Japan, and if you haven't noticed, Animal Crossing is huge in Japan

If they didn't release one on Wii U, they're missing a big change to get some good sales from Japan


Animal Crossing is huge in Japan........on handhelds

The one on GC did about 1 million and the one on Wii did about 1.3 million with 3x the install base. With Wii U doing worse than even GC and literally only having a single title over 1 million in Japan (Mario Kart will make it 2), I don't think 1 million is even possible, something like 500-800k probably and while that's not bad sales at all for a single region, wouldn't it be wiser to just release it on the next handheld where it will likely sell over 4 million like the DS & 3DS versions?



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

I don't know about that. We don't know a lot of games that are definitely coming to the Wii U next year.



DélioPT on 03 April 2015

Speaking of Wii U, the only games confirmed for 2016 are Zelda U and FExSMT.
Even if you had Retro...

With this E3 focusing on 2015 unlike last year which focused on 2016, i wouldn't count on 2016 being a better year than 2015. Assuming there are a lot of surprises for next year, which i really doubt.
