What Nintendo games do you like the most (besides Smash and Kart)?

I'm a Nintendo and PlayStation fan myself and I enjoy the games listed below for many of the same reasons.

Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare - Splatoon
Axiom Verge - 2D Metroid
Ratchet & Clank - 3D Mario
Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams - 2D Mario
Rayman Legends - Donkey Kong Country
LittleBigPlanet 3 - Yoshi/Kirby
Mortal Kombat X - Killer Instinct
Dragon Quest Heroes - Hyrule Warriors
Hot Shots Golf - Mario Golf

These 3 have yet to release but it seems that they're going to offer similar kind of fun.

No Man's Sky - Star Fox
Yooka-Laylee - Banjo-Kazooie
Final Fantasy XV - Xenoblade

Additionally PSVR launches with a slew of VR games (some worth playing). Let's hope the NX arrives in 2017 at the earliest or else our wallets and love lives are going to suffer ;-p

Ratchet and clank and rocket league. LBP 3 could be a game between xenoblade sessions.  U1 is somewhat repetitive but U2 is much better, in fact its the best in the series.

I don't know when you plan to buy KH3, but since the team prioritized KH 2.8 over re-releasing 1.5 and 2.5 on PS4, you can watch a walkthrough of those games and then buy 2.8, which leads into KH3. Though, I'll just assume you played the Nintendo games and watched a walkthrough of the PS games and X[Chi] on PC, which is from the players perspective(X: Back Cover in 2.8 is told from a certain group of people's perspective).

Thanks about the headsup on Grim Fandango! Definately picking that up as well!

Lol yeah I know I got a lot of games to play, I have a huge back catalogue but I cant help myself, when ever I find good deals on games I buy to play when ever I can ;)

BraLoD said: Have you ever played a MGS game? You could check MGSV even if not, as seems like the gameplay is really fun. And definitely try Bloodborne. There is an indie game you might like if you are a 8/16 bit Metroid guy: Axiom Verge Another indie, that you may already have on Wii U though, is Shovel Knight. If you like Strategy RPGs I would recomend Disgaea 5, but not now, as you said you'll be going for XCX and want a smaller game and Disgaea may end up being more time consuming than XCX if you end liking it. Anyway, enjoy you PS4

Holy shit! I saw 30 seconds of gameplay and then I ran to the Playstation. That games is right up my alley. Thanks a ton!

Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, Pikmin 3 are probably my favorite Wii U exclusive games to date. Other favorites are 3D World, Smash, MK8, Wow101 and Rayman Legends even though it is not exclusive.

Thanks a ton for this, lots of games on this list.

Great post, falla, and welcome to the forum.

Thanks man

One can only assume that PS4 has sold a quite many consoles on Black Friday. Four new consoles entered my family over the weekend. My nephew, my cousin, and both of my Brother-In-Laws all bought PS4. I talked them into it because we're all excited for the Uncharted 4 beta. We'll have a full team!!! Also, welcome to the collective OP! We're happy to have you!
