@Chaoslink1: Not too hard actually. I would go with the 2 Mario and Luigi games as they will last you close to 100 hours and impo Superstar Saga was the best gba game and still is my favorite of the series. Isaac is a good game but it can wait.
Hey everyone! I finally jumped on the Wii U bandwagon and got it for christmas in the mario kart 8 bundle! I've enjoyed Mario Kart so far, but want more diversity in my gaming so I'm going to pick up one or 2 more games tomorrow! I kind of thought of a pecking order of which games i want to buy in which order when I have the money and was wondering if there are any games I should buy ASAP or any games I should wait to buy. Any advice would be appreciated! Here is my current list:
1.LOZ Wind Waker HD (One of two zelda titles I haven't played yet)
2.Super Smash Bros (My only concern is I played hundreds of hours of Brawl and was wondering if this was THAT different)
3.Pikmin 3
4. Xenoblade Chronicles X
5. DK Country Tropical Freeze
6. Splatoon
7. Super Mario 3D World
8. Bayonetta 2
9. NintendoLand
10. New Super Mario Bros U
…Any suggestions of games I should get sooner or if Super smash bros is too similar to brawl to warrant a purchase?
@robbiemactavish: Wind Waker is my favorite Zelda game of all time. Well worth your #1 slot. I've got everyone on that list except for Bayonetta 2 and that's one great list to start with. While I'm not really much of a Smash fan it's certainly quite popular. I don't see anything wrong with that list but you much want to move Splatoon up a bit. It's quite fun and addicting online shooter. Also you may want to look into Hyrule Warrior's as it feels like a whole new Zelda experience but still has enough to satisfy any Zelda fans needs. I dismissed it at first but it's quite fun.
If you don't mind me asking, what's the other Zelda game you've yet to play?
@robbiemactavish: All great games in your list. Splatoon is lots of fun, imo the best game on the Wii U. I also love DK but you should know that it can be very difficult and will test your patience. Perhaps Mario Maker is a better choice than Mario U?
@robbiemactavish: Personally, I would replace NSMBU with something else, such as Yoshi's Woolly World. YWW is a very creative platformer that gets pretty challenging (if you play it without any aid) after the first worlds. All the 7 S levels are masterpieces. Or replace NSMBU with Mario Maker.
If you're concerned Smash U is too similar to Brawl, swap the positions of Splatoon and Smash U. Splatoon is obviously much more unique and absolutely very addicting once you've understand its depths, although it requires a good internet connection (=good up speed and no lost packets). Now is a good time to start playing Splatoon, since there are billions of new Splatoon players in Inkopolis these last few days.
AFAIK, the only games on the list where you can get occasional good price deals are Bayonetta 2 and NintendoLand.
@Spoony_Tech The only other Zelda game I haven't finished to completion is Spirit Tracks (I've never got around to playing it :/ )! Also I haven't played Tri Force heroes or whatever that 3DS title is but I'm not counting it as one
Thanks everyone! That helped! I'm going today and now I think I'm going to get Splatoon over Smash Bros, just for something fresh and new!
Also with mario maker not being on my list, I prefer games with some sort of progress indicator, whether it's an adventure game or unlockables. I'm not sure if MM has anything like that?

Nor am I lol. It doesn't interest me in the least. I like my single player experiences.

If I was only ever able to have Monster Hunter and EO games in the future, I would be a happy man.
I ended up getting the two I planned on getting because Smash Bros was on a minor sale so was 15 bucks cheaper than Splatoon :S My next two games are probably for sure Pikmin 3 and Splatoon though!

@Jase1981: The most obvious game missing from your list is Pikmin 3. Then there's other games like Wind Waker: HD (since you didn't have the Gamecube), Lego City: Undercover, Xenoblade X and Wonderful 101. And depending on what other systems you have, there are a couple of 3rd party titles (such as Rayman Legends) worth getting.
And the eShop list regarding good indies is really large, but it's also depending on what other systems (such as Steam) you have. FAST Racing NEO and Affordable Space Adventures are both a must IMO. And Steamworld Dig. Lots of great stuff from Curve Digital (Stealth Inc. 2, OlliOlli, etc). And so on...

Hey! Thanks for the reply, I posted this late last night so I left out some info. I do have some experience on a gamecube as 2 of my cousins both had one so I got to try Pikmin on there and couldn't really get into it. Also played Wind Waker but I figure now that its so late Ill wait out and get Zelda U and the Twilight Princess Remake since I never played it on Wii. I hear usually nothing but good on Lego City, but I got burnt out on Lego games and I am more of an Infinity guy (I may get the new Avengers Lego though
Xenoblade yeah I was hoping the US Eshop would get the VCWii one for 20 bucks I would get it
101 I tried the demo and I don't know
forgot to mention I also have an xbox 360 and also this week I will get a One

Yeah I only game on my consoles so no pc gaming here
and I may have to check FAST Racing out
don't think it has a demo? I had just been to busy getting my gold tires on MK8 I guess I figured did I need ANOTHER racer?
Thanks for the reply
@Jase1981: I also agree with a bunch of suggestions @jariw made but have a few other ideas coming from a different angle. For games you already own, how much have you gone into DLC for those games? Here's a list of key DLC to consider, contents are in brackets:
Mario Kart 8 Bundle (Pack 1 + Pack 2 + 8 Yoshis and 8 Shy Guys, latter 2 are free bonuses).
Hyrule Warriors Hero of Hyrule Pack (Master Quest Pack, Twilight Princess Pack, Majora's Mask Pack, Boss Pack and Dark Link costume). If you want absolutely everything there's also costume sets for Skyward Sword, Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess and Ganondorf.
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, if you have the 3DS version and want the content on both systems then buy bundles featuring both consoles. May want to wait until Corrin and Bayonetta are released during February in case there's bundles containing everything or all fighters or all fighters and stages, etc.
If you decide you want Pikmin 3, there's bonus DLC stages.
@Grumblevolcano: Hello, yes DLC is always a great purchase. I come from xbox so DLC is always vital to me to extend the game.
I have all the MK8 DLC
I have all the HW DLC except that Ganon costume pack
I have all the Smash DLC cant wait for Bayonetta
Oh also my current game collection is:
-Mario Kart 8
-Super Smash Bros
-Wind Waker HD
-Mass Effect 3
I'm a student on a budget so I was looking at either buying the physical copies of both Rayman Legends and ZombiU (19.99 + 9.99 with free shipping) or Super Mario 3D World for 41.99 on the discount.
Does anyone have an opinion on which one sounds better?
