Wii U Appreciation Thread!

Wii U Appreciation Thread!

I love the Wii U, it's a really great system with a pretty solid fun library and it still bothers me that it didn't do very well. It deserves way more love.

Third party support could have been a hell of a lot better but the games that did get released were pretty good.

I do like that a lot of them got Nintendo exclusive content too.

>Tank Tank Tank is first on the list
Well the Wii U certainly did that!

it was a GOOD system, not great like the wii. its underrated and piracy made me realize that

I will take the thread as a just Wii U thread, and not a thinly-veiled console wars.

MK8 is pretty good. The graphics are beautiful, and I love how they brought back parodies' brands. Battle mode is really bad though, as it's not fun trying to chase someone in a course that's meant for racing. I also don't understand if they were going for this, then why they didn't add Baby Park in the selection?

>Baby Park
dlc, low blow but the price is good

I agree, Baby Park would have been glorious. Yoshi's Valley is pretty fun though as a battle stage.

that's the definition of shovelware

Bought a Wii U last week and modded it with just an SD card now I play all these games for free

I have to say that the Wii U is easily the best console in term of exclusives this gen. It's a gem of a console that actually feel like it was made for video games.

yea its great, download captain toad

Sonic Transformed was great. I played it with a friend local co-op.

Black Flag was great with Gamepad integration.

Arkham City was great.

Deus Ex is the best console version by far.

>Wii Party U
You know Nintendrones are desperate to pad the list when...

Look into modding the VWii for Wii/GameCube games

More like the only console with exclusives this gen. The Wii U and Vita are easily the best consoles this generation and yet they sold like shit, proving that the majority of people who play video games have terrible taste.

They are pretty fun party games if you want to play with your Mom or what ever.

Wii Party U is much better than a lot of those games on that list.

>Vita
no i dont see it, i own it and 3ds is better. care to explain?

That list is all of the Wii U exclusives in the West, minus Devil's Third which I forgot about.

Basically JRPG and Rhythm game heaven

My mom loves rail shooters. Wii U have any?

Already played Captain Toad pretty amazing even though it was short. Playing Smash with all the DLC now.
I have a Wii I homebrewed with ripped GC games on disc and an External with every wii game.

The Wii has some pretty good ones, but I don't think the Wii U has a single one.

Why the fuck is GalGun 2 on PS4 without move support, it's a rail shooter that you need to use a controller for

Wasn't very good anyway.

oh i see then vita is the king in that. a lot of great jrpgs, i wish the vita wasnt that bloated with ports/multiplatforms because the system itself had the potential that it could have lived up too

The Wii U may have some blunders, but it also has plenty of great things going on too.

I've own this console for this for 3 years. Feels to experience the console from nears it beginning to end. A ton good moments and total bullshit moments as well like getting perma ban from miiverse. My little cousins are playing super mario 3d world at the moment and love the system to death. I wish i had that same love had for the console like i had in 2013.

...

Still my most played wii u game despite the lack of dlc.

Quite a few I disagree with which should be rated higher but pretty accurate.

>narutard likes cod
not surprised

Just started it earlier and put about an hour in to it. Never played CoD before, is this a good one to start on?

r8 me bro

I've loved it from start to finish, I just wish it had more JRPGs like Final Fantasy and such, and then it would be perfect.

Nice pic user.

autism/pi

Its a lot of fun. Just try not over rage or rage quit over the bullshit. People play smart and will fully take advantage of everything possible on multiplayer. Alot of people don't even have mic or don't turn on their mic for some odd reason. Kids do play this game but not as much as xbox live and ps3 or pc.
>just have fun anyway.

Well I'm enjoying myself..

That says a lot about the WiiU's library.

I'm hoping for more 5 or 6 AAA games until the end of its life.

>Zelda Breath of the Wild
>Paper Mario Color Splash
>Just Dance 2017
>Yooka Laylee

Are the only things I see coming.

Dude what the fuck I never played that WarioWare game, that's fucking terrifying.

Sure, it says there's a lot of shovelware but the Wii had the same issue. There are lots of quality games on both systems, it's just not the majority much like every other console.

Ah, this is used in Smash bros..

I mean, new games

What about.............................. OTHER GAME?

I'm still playing Xenoblade Chronicles X. Just got Mia as a team member, she really wanted to let me know that she got probed in the bum.

The Wii U really is ridiculously underrated. It has a ton of good exclusive games. Pretty obvious that games don't make for a popular console.

Eh?

I like what Xenoblade did for the people that like it. All it did for me was make me realize that I like linear, story driven RPGs with interesting combat and open worlds only at the END.

Can you imagine a world where Breath of the Wild was a Wii U launch title?

Mario Kart 8 is amazing, Wii U is worth it for this game alone.. with the DLC puechased of course.

And if it was, I can't help feel that the Wii U would have done better in the long run, not by a huge amount though.

We'll just have to wait and see how the NX performs.

Aren't SNES games and GBA games playable on the WiiU? I only had like 2 or 3 games on the GBA so I missed a lot of things.

Yes you can. NES, SNES, GBA, N64, Wii and TurboGrafx-16 games are available.

Can you imagine in Mario Maker was a launch title? Would have sold the second screen gimmick.

Anyways, I'll be playing Splatoon until the day I die. Probably the best new IP of the last few years.

>Europe gets Mario Kart 64 & Mario Party 2 on N64

Whut? Come on NoA,hurry up I want this.

That's cool, I was disappointed that they weren't available for the 3DS and I really didn't feel like getting a New 3DS.

Steam is 98% shovelware. I think we can directly link steam to shovelware.

Stop misusing the word gimmick you fucking cuck. You are taking away from shit that is actually a gimmick.

>misusing the word
>cuck

IT's pretty good. It's pretty much a better Five Nights at Freddies 2. It's called Gamer and it's on Game & Wario.

The goal is to play as many Wario Ware games on your Wii U gamepad, meanwhile your mom is trying to catch you playing video games after bedtime.

You lose if :
Your mom catch you
You lose all your lives in Wario Ware
You fake sleep too much and fall asleep.

Game & Wario is pretty special.
On one hand it kind of had the least content out of all the Warioware games. So it's no wonder people felt let down when/if they were expecting something more typical of a Warioware game.
But on the other hand, the content it does have is just so fucking good.

The game is weird because looking at what it does have Game & Wario really is an excellent sequel. It has expanded on previous ideas and learnt from previous pitfalls. I think it's pretty fair to say that it is generally speaking a legitimate improvement all things considered. Except, that it is kind of lacking in quantity.

The multiplayer however is also really great. And still to this day one of my most played party games. Whenever there is a birthday party or new years eve or just a random get together, we always make sure to devote some time to Game & Wario.

So the game is kind of weird.
It has some really neat single player content too and improvements on old formulas. But due to the relatively small width of the content I'd probably not recommend the game for single player alone, in spite of the single player it has being really neat.
If you at least somewhat regularly get together with a group of friends of 4 or more people, I'd recommend Game & Wario in a heart beat.

>Wii U games are already hitting the point of getting harder to find and the prices are going back up

Say what you want about Nintendo games but their shit holds their value so much better than everything else. I can expect PS3/4 games I want to play to come down in price within months, but I have to expect to buy Ninty games shortly after release or not find them easily later at all.

Anyone played Rodea?

Is the Wii U worth buying or should I wait for the nintendo NX? Had an xbox and a playstation but ever since I bought a high end PC they have just been collecting dust. Would like a nintendo console in order to play zelda.

>Zelda Windwaker
>Zelda Twilight Princess
>Zelda Breath of the Wild
>Hyrule Warriors
>Play as Link in Mario Kart 8
Then yes, buy a Wii U

If you just want to play Breath of the Wild then wait 7 months for the NX.

Tell me about it. AC amiibo festival is such a QUALITY ninty game, i bought 4 copies. Such a great game with SO much value! Mario Tennis Ultra is also the most amazing tennis game in the world, who cares how barebones and dead the online it is, easily worth $60!

>Wii U piracy is piss easy
>Most games are under 4gb
No excuse.

Yeah except no online, shit frame rates and long load times.

>shit frame rates and long load times
Stop buying chink shit SD cards off ebay. Any real Class 10 card will play games pefectly.

No online so no.
