I would love to see PSO 2 for Wii U , it is essentially future monster hunter . It would serve well to release within the gap of MH3U and MH4 . MH3U has plenty of people still playing it, but the further you get away from release that number gets smaller and smaller as people eventually reach the end and there is no real sign of big DLC like another tier after G rank.

I remember playing PSU and it was fun for a bit, it just had some holes in how the leveling and progression system was laid out but was overall a fun game. I also have many fond memories of playing PSO EP 1&2 on my dreamcast back in the day.

I would hardly call PSO an MMO, as its missing the first "M" by a large margin, it also lacks the requirement of requiring to be always online. PSO much like Monster Hunter is an ARPG with simply great Multiplayer.
Remember when PSO was on gamecube?

PSO was on all systems except the third which was gamecube online.
PSU was on everything but Wii
PSO2 is currently on PC in JP and headed to Vita also but only Windows for NA at the moment.

Monster Hunter is an MMORPG with no experience points and half the games don't have online. Otherwise they play pretty similarly to any other action-oriented MMO. Phantasy Star Online is and always a full-on MMO. A more action-oriented one with no exploration, but it did everything else that your standard MMO has. You're fooling yourself if you think Phantasy Star Online 2 isn't an MMO. The reason why it'll most likely be on the PS4 and Xbox One (if it comes to consoles at all...which it probably won't) is because it'd benefit from the online infrastructure and features that those consoles have, and the Wii U lacks (well, that and the specs, and the ease of porting to the Next Gen consoles).

I dare not fool myself, i am aware of what an MMO is and it is not. It doesnt even call itself an MMO as it lacks the first M. Its not massive, its not a persistent world, and its not only online. It has Hubs, Small groups of 5(?), a single player that carries your character over into multiplayer, and your character is not server side . It is not an MMO nor is monster hunter.

This is an MMO

Hell the title of the website is Phantasy Star Online 2 | PSO2 | Free Multiplayer Online RPG

PSO is just like Monster Hunter, just set in the future. The fact that we have monster hunter shows the Wii U would be just fine for PSO2. If there is any reason why it would go with PS4/Xbox One would be either the install base or the ease of moving a PC game over to those consoles due to the change in processor architecture being the same PC's use.

@CanisWolfred
I gotta agree with warruz about the MMO thing. It's more like Monster Hunter, except you don't have to join a room. Not sure if you've played Monster Hunter on Wii U, but you choose a lobby, then do stuff in the isolated area. They look very similar, besides the character statistics and such...

Also, specs is a non argument, remember? The Wii U could easily handle a game like PSO 2. X is way more demanding of a game if you haven't noticed.

That's what I was telling you, bro

I'm just gonna say, I think X looks better visual wise than PSO 2. PSO 2 is free(I guess), which is probably why that is. Plus, X isn't supposed to be an MMO at all.
PSO 2 has MMO traits as far as the lobby goes, but that's it.

Obviously, Sonic Lost World and Mario & Sonic Olympics are part of those seven. Then there is Castle of Illusion, and Yakuza 1 & 2 HD if you're counting Japan.

I really have no clue beyond those 4 games. It could be any of their IPs, including Shenmue, Skies of Arcadia, Jet Set Radio, Samba De Amigo, etc...
Besides the Nintendo exclusives, the other Sega games will appear on Wii U AND Xbox One/PS4.

Oh ya, there was a 3rd Sonic game. I must have forgotten, because there was no info after that...
I don't really see what kind of game it would be. A Sonic RPG or Adventure 3? I guess they just plan on drowning Wii U with Sonic, but I don't see an Adventure 3 happening, because it seems as though it would be too similar to Lost World.
Who knows...

Now Adventure 3 could boost the wii u sales two along with PSO2 and Shenmue 1&2 HD
