Forums - Nintendo Discussion - So, i will get a WiiU

Get The Wonderful 101.

The game will chew you up and spit you out, but when you master the game, you'll be very happy you did.



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

If its your first nintendo console make sure u get a wiimote + nunchuck and use the bc of the wii u to play wii games

here are some good one:

Mario Galaxy 1+2
Metroid Prime Triology
Xenoblade Chronicles
Zelda Twilight Princess + Skyward Sword
Anno
Resident Evil 4

Is the whole Metroid prime trilogy available on Wii? I can't play those games with the standard controller?

yeah the complete metroid prime triology is also on the wii u eshop for 20€.

You have to use a wiimote or wii classic controller (iff supported) for wii games. Most games are only playable with wiimote+nunchuk though.



Well, everyone seems to have covered almost all the good games I would suggest... Almost every single game listed in this thread is worth the money. My only suggestion would be to shop on Amazon and look for decent sale prices (I usually get games 12-40 dollars new). Beats paying 50-60 at a store.

I'd also look into getting some classic Wii games if you never had a Wii considering Wii U can play Wii games.  There are probably a lot of good deals on Amazon for Wii games right now.

I would say games you want that will last you awhile that are musts, Hyrule Warriors and The Wonderful 101.

Then also make sure to get games like Bayonetta 2 and Splatoon, Smash Bros and Mario Kart.

Definitely Tropical Freeze. Wonderful platformer. And Splatoon, lovely concept and very active online community (Mario Kart 8 too)

Also, another question: How good is the online store? Can I buy all games digitally or should my first choice be physical games?

Btw, does Splatoon have splitscreen mode? :)


I love the online store, but retail games are so big I'd recommend the discs first. Great indie games snd sales though.

I don't have Splatoon but the box says it  has local 2 player.



Check the link below. (note to Admins: it's not really porn please don't ban me!)

 

For sort of a starter pack of games, I'd recommend Splatoon, Mario Kart 8, Smash Wii U, and Rayman Legends (you can get it for pretty cheap now and it has tons of content).



The four games I feel ever wii u owner should own are super Mario 3d land, Mario kart 8, super smash bros, and splatoon. The rest is just up to personal preference. I really enjoyed wind water hd, hyrule warriors, captain toad, Rayman legends, and bayonetta. I would recommend a pro controller but it's not absolutely necessary.
