Forums - Nintendo - Does Nintendo still actually have a good Holiday line up for Wii U?

Not really, you can't really call a single game a 'lineup'

Xenoblade Chronicles X, Fatal Frame V, Yoshi's Woolly World (US only), Fast Racing Neo, Mario Tennis and AC: Amiibo Festival are more than a single game though. ;)

Granted, I'll likely only get Xenoblade Chronicles X from that list (already got Yoshi's Woolly World), but I'm too busy with Super Mario Maker right now anyway. And I was never planning to get Star Fox: Zero anyway.

Only MS has a decent exclusive holiday blockbuster line-up this year.

Well, if you consider just the Wii U, then the answer is no. They don't have a strong line-up. However if you have Wii U and 3DS line ups combined, then Nintendo is coming strong this holiday season.

No, I shall be spending my money on ps4 games from now on

I had StarFox pre-ordered.

Now the only thing I may buy... maybe... is X. Well, I was planning on getting Zelda TriForce Heroes but that is for my daughter's 3ds.

Let's be real...It's bad. We were supposed to get Star Fox and Zelda! I mean the games they are releasing are not big games. Xenoblade will not sell like a Star Fox or Zelda game. Every other console is getting many HUGE games.



Playing Xenoblade 2 before I buy Xenoblade 3 (otherwise I couldn't wait to play 3).

Can they announce a new Fire Emblem? A remake of Genealogy or Tellius would suffice !

I think the holiday line-up is just average.... Xenoblade Chronicles, Fatal Frame V and Yoshi are the real gems. Fast Racing Neo seems great and also Rodea The Sky Soldier. I don´t see many people interested in Mario Tennis this time.
I´m getting Xenoblade, Fast Racing, Rodea and Fatal Frame

Xenoblade Chronicles X.Enough said.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

i doubt Star Fox would get the numbers XCX have. i don't think its bad. Nintendo can spread and put XCX on Star Fox's release date.

They still have a decent line up but it could have been amazing with Zelda and Starfox.

There are also a couple of third party games which look somewhat fun.

Your scaring me Clint.

I am seriously pissed at the Star Fox delay, not only was I looking forward to it, it was also Nintendo moving aside and giving Microsoft and Sony free reign over the holidays. Xenoblade is going to be terrific, but is not going to be a big hardware pusher (not saying Star Fox would be, but more games the better). Im all for delivering a polished experience, but surely Nintendo and Platinum could have pushed harder to get the game out. To me it is confirmation that there is very little in development for Wii U and they are padding out 2016.
