The sorry state of the Wii U

While future Wii U game development remains surprisingly low,

til it's "surprising" that the least popular console since the Dreamcast has no new games in development, but wait almost six per cent of those surveyed foresee their games being released on the Wii U.  Hallelujah, praise be unto God!  The Wii U is saved!

Maybe I'll buy a Wii U for sub $100, but with less than no games, it seems highly unappealing.

Once you played a mario game you've played them all

honestly, 3D World is really good though

i know that most of us here have always found nintendo's business practices to be ridiculous and a lot of us can agree that the wii u really does have a scarcity of games worth buying the console for, but where exactly did the sudden huge increase in nintendo hate come from? almost every post from david or dp in this board over the past week has been extremely anti-nintendo lol

I'm stoked about all the local multiplayer games out and coming out, it's not a great single player console but it's shaping up to be a great multiplayer console.

The gamepad is the saddest thing though, it's just there being a regular controller most of the time, so sad because it has so much to offer yet most of the best Wii U game it just does nothing

wow SSB and only SSB

The second screen is the saddest thing though, it's just there being a map display most of the time, so sad because it has so much to offer yet most of the best (3)DS game it just does nothing

The motion controls is the saddest thing though, it's just there being a nuisance or doing nothing most of the time, so sad because it has so much to offer yet most of the best Wii game it just adds nothing

The GBA link cable is the saddest thing though, it's just there adding negligible features most of the time, so sad because it has so much to offer yet most of the best Gamecube game it just does nothing

The E-Reader is the saddest thing though, it's just there double the GBA's size and weight most of the time, so sad because it has so much to offer yet most of the best GBA game it just does nothing

Nintendo land, Mario Kart, SSB4, SM3DW, NSMB, Mario Party 10

The point is most of the games are great multiplayer which I love

Nintendo Land is lame and NSMB is a tired sub-series tho

the last two are only peripherals and not needed to enjoy most of the games


but i agree with ya

nintendo land has some decent multiplayer games,

nsmb is hella tired

just saying i like that they've focused on multiplayer games

the ps4 sold 70% of the wii u's entire existence in one quarter [if you believe vgchartz, which puts it at roughly 100,000 units lower than has shipped according to nintendo].  how utterly pathetic lmao

i wonder if nintendo regrets not offering a single official black friday sale bundle

it's like they've given up on even trying to move more units

but i guess they've realized that fewer they sell, the fewer customers they'll disappoint when they once again prematurely announce a new system in a futile attempt to revitalize their relevance in the industry

looking forward to the Wii Blewâ,,¢ in 2016
