What Wii U games have puzzles that fit into the environment, like in Darksiders 2 and Zelda Wind Waker? I'm not talking about platforming btw. Thanks.

Adventure Games, yes.

"Stick it to the Man!", for a humorous one. Or "The Cave", although "Stick it to the Man!" is better.

"Trine 2" might fit your description as well.

"Ittle Dew" is all about puzzles, although I haven't played that yet (not yet available in Europe).

Wikipedia's take on the term ''adventure game''; ''An adventure game is a video game in which the player assumes the role of protagonist in an interactive story driven by exploration and puzzle-solving.''
I'd say Pikmin 3 fits in that category as well, as exploration is definitely a part of Pikmin. But these video game genres are very vague and indistinct anyway.

did you realy have to correct me? This is what's wrong with society. Geeez with that definition most games are adventure but if you ask a gamer they will say zelda, god of war, ect. Pikmin is an rts before it's anything else.

The OP asked for (adventure) games with enviromental puzzles in it. Pikmin 3 does that very well. You could argue that it's an RTS, and I wouldn't disagree, but it has definitely some adventure elements to it as well. Pikmin encourages exploration and puzzle solving as well, something most RTS games do not, and it gives you full control over a main character, again something a lot of RTS games do not. I think Pikmin 3 fits his description. If (s)he likes the games (s)he mentioned, I think (s)he will have a great time with Pikmin 3 as well.

Also I didn't correct you, I just added my two cents.

Are there any other game suggestions?

Not that I know of. Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker comes out this holiday, perhaps you might like that game.
