To be fair, most of those 3rd party games will probably be caca. But if you do remember any more titles, please let me now so I can add them to the release list thread.

So if Smash Bros. for Wii U does get delayed to 2015 (I said IF @Serebii ) I wonder if Nintendo will bring forward the use of amiibo for Mario Kart 8. It seems a bit strange how MK8 is compatible with amiibo, but Smash will be the first game to make use of it. Why not release amiibo for the game that's already out, and that over 2 million people already own?

Pretty much, yeah. I still recon Bayonetta 2 will hit hit at the end of October, in time for Halloween. Smash Bros. for Wii U is an interesting one now though, I really expected it to be out by summer, but it could potentially be 2015. (something @Dcubed & @Serebii will continue to debate ) And Watch Dogs, well... I'll believe it when I see it. I really feel for any Wii U only gamers. *Goes back to playing Ni No Kuni.*

Yeah, and I just love the way it looks. There are times where if it wasn't for the controller in my hand I'd almost forget I was playing a videogame! That's a shame. I'm OK with it so far, it kind of reminds me of Xenoblade slightly as you're a bit more involved during battles.

Wowzers. That is nuts. :awesome: I was like "ha! he missed one"... oh.

When you're on the walking/climbing challenges map there should be a button in the bottom right corner that will take you to the total distance screen.

I'm doubting that. Yeah... been a bit lazy recently. Is it really just 3 of us using this now, or does the game still randomly display people whenever it feels like it?

This has been sitting on my PS3 for a few weeks after downloading it for the insane price of £3.99! Finally made a start on it last night though, and got stuck playing for hours. So beautiful. And dat Studio Ghibli vibe... Yeah, seems like this game is proper Tidy!

Well at the moment the best reason of all is Mario Kart 8: There are some great older titles to catch up on too... Nintendo Land NSMBU Zombi U Monster Hunter 3 Lego City Undercover Pikmin 3 The Wonderful 101 Super Mario 3D World DKC Tropical Freeze All exclusive to Wii U, and all awesome. And coming up we have... Hyrule Warriors Bayonetta 2 Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Captain Toad Treasure Tracker Splatoon Yoshi's Wooly World Kirby and the Rainbow Curse Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem Xenoblade Chronicles X And last but not least, Zelda: It's a slow moving process (very slow ) but right now you're looking at 10 quality exclusives to check out, and at least another 10 by the end of next year. So yeah, there should be many reasons for anyone who enjoys gaming to buy a Wii U. : peace:

Great.

I only got a notification that the contest had closed, don't think voting is possible yet though.

It's a Lexar 8GB flash drive. Only got eShop/VC titles on it (all of my retail downloads are still on the Wii U system memory) but yeah, it works a treat.

I'm thinking I should get an external hard drive at some point, currently using a USB flash drive. It works perfectly mind you, and has the benefit of not requiring an additional power supply, but I keep hearing stories about how they can easily go tits up with too much use. It's a shame you can't just keep save files on the Wii U system itself, and game files on external storage. If it was like that, I'd definitely stick with using USB flash drives.

Taking the releases for this Thursday into account, there will have been 172 games released so far this year for Wii U and 3DS. What's interesting though (if my calculations are correct ) is that it's a perfect split! 86 on Wii U, 86 on 3DS. Some stats, for anyone that cares: Wii U = 11 (6%) 3DS = 23 (13%) Wii U eShop = 38 (22%) 3DS eShop = 46 (27%) Wii U VC = 37 (22%) 3DS VC = 17 (10%) Wii U = 86 (50%) 3DS = 86 (50%) Retail = 34 (20%) Digital = 138 (80%) eShop = 84 (61%) VC = 54 (39%) Total = 172 The difference between retail and digital is pretty nuts too, the days of physical media are surely coming to an end...

First Wii Sports Club, now this. What's with this thing of re-releasing Wii U download titles on disc? Anyway, I've got both NES Remix games already (just finishing up NES Remix 2 at the moment) so this news doesn't exactly excite me. But good for peeps that don't have either of 'em yet... I guess. It seems like a weird choice of game to release as a retail version though, much more suited to digital IMO.

Nope.

I managed to get the bronze medal on that game by pure luck, but I'm thinking there must be a bit more to it. Will let you know if I discover anything.

This looks amazing running at 60fps on the Twitch stream. :awesome:

Already on the list, the European date has been know for quite some time now.Thanks for posting anyway. : peace:

It seems nothing major was revealed in the stream on Niconico. They showed the Limited Edition stuff at the end, the treasure chest plays the jingle as you open it. The Triforce alarm clock actually looks better than it did at first too, nice and shiny. Possibly only 3 spots left on the character roster though. Not looking good for Tingle. Also, Ruto's fast movement animation is ridiculous. She swims through thin air.

The only thing that could make that more awesome, would be if it actually pulled data from your Tomodachi Life savefile for the room designs/Miis. I wonder if residents will still fart on this stage?

The character designs in this look great. And the game is looking better and better with every new reveal. Once Tingle is confirmed I can start getting truly hyped. Anyway, there's a live stream going on tomorrow: http://live.nicovideo.jp/watch/lv183872180

You'd probably get a kick out of Nano Assault Neo, which is a short but pretty sweet twin-stick shooter.Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition is another great eShop game, and NES Remix 1/2 are worth checking out.
