Topic: Wii U eShop Recommendations thread

^ Did you like the other games? (i.e. - 2012, 2010, and 2008)

I'm looking for something that is not too hard, but hard enough to make me feel proud of my self in the end.

Look up Cloudberry Kingdom

Way too hard, not very rewarding, uncompleteable, glitchy: Giana Sisters Twisted Dreams

Very hard, frustrating sometimes, but managable, at least until the basic ending: Cloudberry Kingdom

Challenging, but fair and rewarding: Everything made by Two Tribes (Toki Tori 2+), Knytt Underground, The Cave, NES Remix, TNT Racers, Runner2

Challenging and fair, but short: Nano Assault Neo.

Which is recommended:
Dr. Luigi (Never really played any Dr. Mario game before)
NES Remix (Doesn't look too fun but i could be wrong)

I feel like spending up to $15 on the Wii U eShop
Which of the above 2 is recommended or should i go with something else like Super Castlevania IV?

Super Castlevania IV's a pretty awesome game. It's basically exactly what you would expect from an SNES sequel to an NES game (by that I mean, it's great).

How about the Mega man games.

should i get Super Mario Bros. 3 on the Wii U or 3DS XL? o_o
is there a difference between the 2 versions?

@Sonicfan11589 I loved the original Dr. Mario and nad Dr. Luigi is a great sequel to that game but NES Remix is also pretty addicting, so it depends on your style of gameplay. If you prefer puzzle games go Dr. Luigi, if you collectting stuff in games and trying to beat high scores go for NES Remix. Both are great though!

Has anyone played UnEpic on the computer, i just watched a video and it looks like a decent Castlevania-type game. I MIGHT download it later.

I bought Unepic this morning and i couldn't recommend it enough.

Nano Assault Neo, Bit trip Runner 2 are both amazing!

been thinking about Knytt underground..... sounds pretty cool.

I'm blasting through Runner 2 at the moment.
It's really awesome.

I'm getting antsy to buy a game before the DK:TF release.. I'm just curious, what are some of the hardest games available on? I was thinking about buying Mighty Switch Force and then getting Bit.Trip.Runner 2, but I'm not sold on either game. Are they challenging at all?

Runner 2 is challenging pretty early into the game, but once you get into it you can clear it, and the game makes itself easy to get into so you can go back to it at a later day. For a challenge I'd recommend clearing the game on hard with checkpoints, then going back and replaying everything without the checkpoints to get a high score.

Mighty Switch Force is a speed running game, so I'd say it starts off simple, but getting a good time is always somewhat of a challenge.

Do you recommend spin the bottle bumpies party???

@jdarrell Thanks man, I ended up buying Mighty Switch Force then using the sale to get Runner 2 and Giana Sisters.. I really like Mighty Switch Force, especially getting the par times. I like Runner too as well. Giana Sisters on the other hand.. I'm not too happy with it. It looked smooth in trailers and screenshots but it doesn't feel smooth at all when you play and it doesn't look as good either. I felt a bit deceived. I played about 4 levels and I don't even know if I want to play it again, we'll see.

I agree with the Giana Sisters stuff. I think the biggest problem is the levels feel really empty. They make these big areas that don't require much to get through. I am hoping the further I get into it the more the levels are filled and that might help the game out.

I agree on Giana Sisters - it's rather bland and really disappointing. And there's no sound coming from the GamePad, practically making off-TV play impossible (unless you like to play your games mute)!! Thank god I got it with the sale, otherwise I'd be mad had I given 15 euro to a software house that didn't even care to patch their overpriced turd.
On the other hand, Runner 2 is brilliant and everybody must play it. Mighty Switch Force is also very decent, though a bit overrated.
