Would be great to have the Wii game here.

It should have been a pre-installed game. Should be better than Nintendoland, at least.

Great news. The boxed version easily beats the DLC.

Nobody's buying Vita games, so it's basically just 3DS against a much higher iOS install base. 3DS sales will improve, but it's just one console.

The 3DS has pulled out of its funk, and has a good number of games lined up for it.

Yeah, I'm not giving Dave Cox's Castlevania the time of the night anymore. That sure 'worked' allright.

@Damo Curse of Darkness was actually good, with good music too. The Lords of Shadow games have just been bad.

This game needs to be translated.

Bloody Vampire looks interesting.

There is nothing to celebrate about this game. It would be best left forgotten.

Dillon's Rolling Western is a horrible game. Nobody should buy it, even at a discount.

Good analysis. Nintendo is confused about the Wii U, and that confusion is hurting the console. They need to get their act together and get back to the first years of the Wii.

Cliffy is so wrong. If the Wii was a virus, its DNA has now been integrated into gaming culture. One of the most influential consoles ever.

Wii was a great console that sold because of great games. Wii U is lacklustre, the Gamepad is an ill-conceived idea that makes the system needlessly complicated, and it's still lacking in games.

The Wii was simply a different beast than the Wii U, and that's why Wii U is floundering.

EA is crap and they make crappy games. It's better to compete with them than to co-operate with them.

I'd say that cancelling a crap game like Colonial Marines actually shows more commitment than releasing it.

@Digital-Deviant Motion controls are bad for the Gamepad. It just doesn't work the way it's being used. The Wiimote was and is the superior motion controller.

The Gamepad is a devolution. Not anywhere near as useful and comfortable as the Wiimote. Dump the Gamepad and focus back on the Wiimote.

How about "Nintendo needs to become less familiar with the Gamepad"? They need to dump the junk already and get back to the Wiimote.

Wii Party U and Wii Fit U. A lot riding on them.

@banacheck Wii had a lot of great third party games, Wii U should aspire to the same.

"Our belief is that sales react to the games lineup. Lowering the price, without any compelling software will produce nothing."

Completely agree. These guys really know their stuff.

Hooray. The eShop will be better for it.

Highly agreed. Wii was a fantastic console.

No, please no. Somebody fire Miyamoto.

Download games should be around a tenner or less. Doesn't matter if they're also disc titles. Paying 19.99 for a download title is bad, 49.99 or 59.99 is just ridiculous. Plenty of overpriced games in the download space.

Would have been the perfect Easter game

No, Team Meat. Go home. No Smash for you.

Miyamoto is completely out of touch, and Pikmin 3 is not going to be fun at all.

Hopefully the Japanese will enjoy this game as much as Westerners.

The PlayStation 4 is completely irrelevant. What Wii U needs are good games, and if it has them, it will succeed regardless of the competion.

@gavn64 It's not good value, because there are few games and most of them suck.

@SCAR392 Indeed. Wii U is suffering because it doesn't take as much advantage of motion controls as Wii did.

Wii U needs those games and a lot more better games than now if it ever hopes to reach the Wii.

@Haywired The Wii and DS were great consoles with great game selections, and that information shows that UK took well to them.

Seeing the Wii U stumble when there is absolutely nothing to buy and play on the thing is no surprise.

@JebbyDeringer 3 and 4 are the best ones. 4 was a step up and different from 3, so it wasn't just more of the same.

This is a good move, downplay that Nintendoland. But the price is still too high.

Wario Land on Wii and Adventure Time looking likely candidates.

This is Nintendo's fault in how they mishandled the launch. They've really lost their touch after the Wii.

Also Known As:

Probotector II: Return of the Evil Forces

Most awesome subtitle ever.

@CanisWolfred Haven't bought Ocarina 3D, won't buy this. Moves like this will only make Nintendo look worse.

The funny thing is, Rabbids Land is better in showcasing Wii U than Nintendoland is.

@SuperCharlie78 The Wii was by far the best console of the past generation. How any gamer could live without a Wii is the bigger question.

Square Enix:
1. Make good games
2. Release them outside Japan
3. ????
4. Profit!

@Captain_Balko If Wii U has nothing but Zelda, Mario and Yoshi, you can count me out.

@Chriiis There are so many other games, that not only mentioning but featuring and highly promoting these games is doing a disservice to the available game selection.

Lots of bad advice. Half of these "blockbusters" are outdated snorefests, and one is only available to early adopters who've probably downloaded it ages ago. There are a lot of more interesting games that could be recommended, including from the same series - how is Link's Awakening the "craziest" Zelda when Majora's Mask is out there?

@Cesco Not even Tokyo Crash Mobs or Gunman Clive?

@belmont
Already available: Crimson Shroud, The Denpa Men, Tales of the Abyss

Upcoming: Devil Survivor Overclocked, Fire Emblem, Project X Zone

TBA: Etrian Odyssey IV, Dragon Quest VII, Bravely Default FF

Also to consider: Theatrhythm Final Fantasy, Streetpass Quest

Cut price of console, sell more games. The games will bring the profit back in. They made the 3DS mistake again, poor launch selection and console too expensive.

Epic Mickey 2 should have been kept a Wii exclusive, maybe that would have made it a better game. Going multiplatform is what strained their resources too far.
