Cube Posted August 4, 2013 Posted August 4, 2013 (edited) The single most important thing about a console is the games, and in particular games you can't get on any other platform. I've come up with a list of exclusives for this year. If I'm missing any, let me know. I'm only counting games with a retail disc. Wii U Lego City Undercover (Open world) Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate (Action RPG) Game & Wario (Minigames) New Super Luigi U (Platformer) Pikmin 3 (RPG) The Wonderful 101 (Action) Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Platformer) Wii Fit U (Fitness) Wii Party U (Minigame) Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games (Sport) The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD (Action/Adventure) Super Mario 3D World (Platfomer) Sonic Lost World (Platformer) PS3 Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch (RPG) God of War: Ascension (Hack n Slash) Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time (Platformer) MLB 13: The Show (Sports) The Last of Us (Shooter/Horror) Atelier Ayesha: The Alchemist of Dusk (RPG) Wonderbook: Diggs Nightcrawler (Interactive Kids Book) Beyond: Two Souls (Interactive Novel) Dragon's Crown (Action RPG) Puppeteer (Platformer) Gran Turismo 6 (Racing) Disgaea D2: A Brighter Darkness (Tactical RPG) Time and Eternity (RPG) Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory (RPG) Tales of Xillia (RPG) Wonderbook: Disney (Interactive Kids Book) The Guided Fate Paradox (RPG) The Witch and The Hundred Knights (RPG) Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix (RPG) Until Dawn (Horror) Ratchet & Clank: Nexus (Platformer) Xbox 360 Gears of War: Judgement (Shooter) Fable Anniversary (Action RPG) PS4 Killzone: Shadow Fall (FPS) Driveclub (Racing) Knack (Platformer) Xbox One Ryse: Son of Rome (Hack n Slash) Dead Rising 3 (Action) Before anyone points out: Due to the unique relationship between the PS3 and Vita, I'm still counting games which also appear on the Vita as exclusive. Like how Smash Bros would still count as a Wii U exclusive. If anyone wants to do a handheld list, I'll add it to the post. Edited August 8, 2013 by Cube
Happenstance Posted August 4, 2013 Posted August 4, 2013 (edited) Couple more PS3: Time and Eternity Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory Tales of Xillia Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD (I was going to leave this off but I guess if Wind Waker HD is on there then so should this be) How come only retail disk?

Cube Posted August 4, 2013 Author Posted August 4, 2013 It's much harder to find proper news and information on digital titles, due to how varied (in terms of budget/marketing/size/everything). It's easier to stick to retail discs. Also, it may be a bit unfair counting localised games if they were released in Japan previously.
Murr Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Is Titanfall scheduled for this year or next year release? That's just for 360 & Xbone right?

Mokong Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 Forgot Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on Wii U I know it was out on 3DS too but as you said you counted PS3 games that also appeared on the Vita too
