Just bought a Wii U !

Pikmin is highly rated but i went for Monster Hunter. Seems to be holding it's 2nd hand price better than Pikmin.

I got a wii u last week, some good deals with lego city.

Wish I got one earlier, the few games I have tried have been a lot of fun and have just worked without issue, can't remember that last time I said that about a game!

After a Wii U, waiting for the right price!

Likewise... seems all prices have been hiked up after MK8s release.

What are the batman games like on Wii U? Is zombie U worth picking up?

I really enjoyed ZombiU, it's well worth a look and can be picked up for pennies nowadays.

 

[topshot]

Yes it is cheap, might snap it up for something different in between MK8 and Zelda.

Got mine from Argos ! Doing some really good deals and they chucked in mass effect 3 for good measure ... Result !

ZombiU is a good survival horror game (it's not a 'first person shooter'), I really enjoyed it. Some very tense moments and really does work great with the GamePad.

Quite an atmospheric game too, some nice art direction in places.

a few screens I took while playing:

Just sat in bed playin mk8 on the gamepad with wii u sat in front room, what a result !

bought one over the weekend with mario kart. my house mates love me. Prior to this all we'd play was fifa on ps4. MK is the new king in town!

 

[Warbie]

I have Zelda and NSMB U. What is the best freebie to get with MK8?
Pikmin or Sonic I guess?

Not Sonic. The poor guy has been so misused by Sega that's he's damaged goods now.

Pikmin is an excellent game. 101 too. Monster Hunter, if you don't mind the learning curve, is arguably the best online game on the system after MK8

 

[sbi5ar]

I really want Star Fox for the Wii U!!!

It would be so awesome and you could really use the game pad to further the game!

There are some rumours for it, but at most they are just rumours with no concrete evidence

Not Sonic. The poor guy has been so misused by Sega that's he's damaged goods now.

Rubbish, Generations, Colours and Lost World are all highly regarding Sonic games. Only Sonic The Hedgehog and Sonic Unleashed have been poorly received.

 

[Warbie]

Each to their own. From what i've played the newer games are ok at best, with some nods to past greatness mixed with new content that shows Sega really don't know what they're doing with the ip. Either way, a million miles from the Sonic that used to stand shoulder to shoulder with Mario.

They all say that - and then they realise that in fact as amazing as MK8 is - it's actually just one title from around 7 or 8 that are completely irresistible.

MK8 is a good start - but it's just a start, the hole goes a lot deeper.

Arkham City is great on Wii U. Origins looks a bit rushed to me. Like it was ported straight from the 360 version and is unoptimized for Wii U, gets some slowdown in fight scenes etc.

Arkham City is worth getting on Wii U, especially at it's current price.
