I'd put it down as disappointing by Nintendo's own standards, but one that has improved after the event. 3D World is a huge disappointment to me, as is DKCTC over Metroid, but Mario Kart 8 and Smash look ridiculously good. Think this year was all about tempering expectations, Nintendo Direct now does what E3 did

Hopefully this acts as a gateway to Galaxy's true successor

So hyped

Wolverine + Asgard = insta-win

@Rawk_Hawk I think the new Mario 3D game will do that, Galaxy really pushed the Wii

Another Mario Strikers wouldn't go amiss...

Poor old Rayman Legends...

HYPE!

@GiftedGimp That'll change when Smash Bros appears

I like how all the Wii U critics have suddenly slinked away. Welcome back Wii U

@Raylax Kudos for going to the trouble of linking to all those games! Hopefully by new gameplay they mean an evolution of Generations, not Werehog

Bring back Marine! runs and hides

@Knuckles It's no use!

@XCWarrior That's not been true since Sonic 06, even Unleashed managed to get reasonable reviews

6 months too late with that message...

Sounds fake to me. I'd much rather a Generations style game than another train-wreck Sonic 4...

I knew I was doing something wrong in Smash, and it turns out it was moving

@placidcasual Oh man, I'd completely forgotten about Advance Wars GBA games possibly coming to Wii U! I really hope that happens!

Oh look, it's me spamming Miiverse about the awesomeness of Lego City

Not long to wait now! Unless of course it gets delayed for a multiplatform SteamBox release

The UK is a bit of a joke for Nintendo fans, which is a real shame. I didn't know anyone who owned a Nintendo console until I was 20

Best. Promotion. Ever

@ShadJV The fact it never came out in Europe had a big effect on it's score

As someone who is entirely sceptical of Animal Crossing, I'd love to see a demo for this one

Shame about the load times, but it was something I feared. I still pick this up, Chase IS a legend, but maybe not right away. Undercover won't complete itself!

Days = weeks. Good cover Tom

@SirQuincealot Duck Hunt Wii U over 3DS, but a return either way would be nice

Equally I know a lot of people who bought a PS3 for the Blu-Ray player...

The Mii Channel really should come over to Wii U, it was a nice feature to bolster your Mii roster

IT BEGINS!
Personally I'm waiting for Non-Specific Action Figure's glorious return to be announced

Software is the key and software is precisely what Wii U is lacking. That and advertising. Sort both of those out and the situation begins to solve itself

Finally!

As normal, Pachter hits the nail on the head. While it's not great to hear, Nintendo are in a bit of a mess right now and should have launched a Wii HD in 2010. Although I can't say I agree that they've blown their chance in the console market, they could just abandon Wii U early and sort it out that way

This really needs to be a £20-£30 game. Unless there are some extra features, there's no reason to get this over the PS3/360 version

I've always said Nintendo need EA's support, if only for the annual sports games. I for one am a massive fan of FIFA, and getting shafted year on year on Nintendo platforms with mediocre efforts is taking it's toll. It was one of my main reasons for buying another platform last gen. That and Mass Effect. Wii U needs that sort of game.
So for me, Nintendo really need to get EA back on board

Chase McCain?! No wait, wrong game
This is looking awesome, can't wait. So long as the spirit of Lego City passes through, I'm more than excited

@Grubdog 12th in an all-format chart is a great achievement for a console with such a small fanbase. It's sold really well considering

That's a clever way of making me buy a lot of eShop credit I'll never need... Well played Nintendo

Well I suppose there's some bright side to it still not being out here :/

Patience... This is a new system, not the 3DS. That's built and got stronger and stronger, as will Wii U. Although a little advertising wouldn't hurt

Telling the world before committing a crime is probably the worst thing to do
Although saving a ROB is a worthy cause...

2000 people does not make a survey... At least not a good one anyway

For me it would be SNES

It's been released?! I didn't even know that and I've certainly not heard ANYTHING about it. Great marketing ¬¬

Well that's unexpected! Good news

So basically all of April I'll be playing Chase McCain games... Sounds good haha

This is looking awesome, but a lack of analogue triggers is going to hurt it so much...

It's interesting that everyone (and I mean everyone) I've physically showed the Wii U to has been pleasantly surprised by it and even expressed an interest in buying one. People I talk to about it dismiss it and don't understand it's uses. Marketing needs to step up, Nintendo Land is the perfect advertising tool is used well

Yep, they need to be used more, but only when it's done sensibly. Kid Icarus had a wonderful use of AR Cards, and I'd love to see more. After all, what's the point of having that functionality on the system if no-one will use it?

Glad someone else is doing this, we need the main dev teams working on new stuff!

Other M, Skyward Sword and Uprising rank amongst some of my favourite games ever, I can't really see why anyone would take issue with them (apart from scanning for pixel-width blobs in Other M...)
