[BlackNMild2k1]

We're getting Bayonetta 1 & 2!!?

Same disc? One price?
If so, consider it bought. 2 for 1 is excellent news.


edit: & Devil's Third is still coming!?


I thought that game was quietly cancelled like a year or so ago... atleast for Nintendo systems.

[Soren]

Devil's Third is now a Wii U exclusive.

[BlackNMild2k1]

Sounds like a good scoop for Nintendo.

They just need to start moving some systems this year and keep and forward momentum from MK8 going through Xmas and into the next year.

[AV]

The 2014 lineup is pretty weak, next year looks amazing.


Hyrule warriors actually looks fun, not sure if worth $60 but still fun.
Bayonetta 1+2 is a big maybe since this is my intro into the franchise i really like that its a two pack and a good bang for my buck, but not sure if its my style.


I will download the rest of Wii Sports Club , I really dig baseball and hopefully boxing works this time.


Captain Toad seems like a good game, but again is it worth $60 , $20 DLC sure but full price nah.


I am willing to bet Smash will come the first week of december and will bearly be playable without a day one patch. Nintendo will work those game developers like slaves to make sure it releases this year for both systems because they need that game and need it BAD!

[Soren]

Moved Star Fox to 2015 after Miyamoto's comments on the Treehouse stream (later confirmed by NOA Twitter).

[Khushrenada]

I'm really liking this thread. Good job Soren!

[ejamer]

Went in with low expectations... but Nintendo's E3 presentation left me pretty impressed. For a console with no third party support, that's a nice looking list of games. 


Nice work on this list - very helpful to have a rough outline like this posted!

[Stratos]

Wow, so much for catching up on last gen games this year like I thought would be happening.

[the asylum]

With the exception of Bayo 1&2 and Smash, the rest of 2014 looks like another wasteland. Forgive me if I'm not overly excited about Hyrule "Link's Button-Mash Training" Warriors. And Sonic Boom- unless there's an option to turn off 10 consecutive minutes of inane canned dialouge, no thanks. Watch_Dogs.... what watch_dogs?

2015 though, high holy **** it looks stacked. X, Starfox, and an actual Zelda game! And Splatoon has got me hype as ****.

[marvel_moviefan_2012]

Hyrule Warriors - Sept. 26

getting hyped

Bayonetta 2 (with Bayonetta 1 included + Nintendo costumes!) - October playing the first on Ps3 now so this is a big maybe

Watch_Dogs - Fall? already getting this just not sure which version

Sonic Boom - November
Curious but need more info on this.

Super Smash Bros for Wii U - Holiday (Amiibo support)
Mii support kind of makes me a little more interested now. still not hyped

Amiibo Figurines - Holiday curious but not hyped

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker - Holiday
SOLD damn I actually want this game right now thank you Nintendo for steeling my money

Art Academy - ?? curious but not super hyped yet


2015
Yoshi's Woolly World
Like this title better than Yarn Yoshi but the game still doesn't look too interesting yet

The Legend of Zelda Wii U
This looks like a kick ass Zelda so in.

Kirby and the Rainbow Curse
Looks great love Kirby

Mario Maker (working title)
Still not interested but it could get better

Xenoblade Chronicles X
curious but not hyped

Splatoon
Love the look of this game might have to get a Wii U for my nephew to join up in some online if it is supported.

Mario Party 10 (Amiibo support)
Looks good

Miyamoto's Star Fox curious but not hyped

No Date
Miyamoto's Project: Guard curious
Miyamoto's Project Giant Robot curious mixed with fan hype

Mario vs Donkey Kong (working title) sounds good just don't screw it up.





Those are all the games that have my interest. Most excited/hyped for Hyrule Warriors, Kirby, Splatoon, and Zelda which is much better than the current line up that had me at very little interest. Oh and Captain Toad pretty much just sealed the deal.

[Phil]

Thanks for the round-up of games, Soren!

[Soren]

Added a bunch of trailers and other stuff.

[BranDonk Kong]

I imagine Mario vs Donkey Kong will be an eShop game, since it was originally a tech demo showing off what you can build with Javascript and HTML5 on the Wii U.

[marvel_moviefan_2012]

either way it looks cool to see Mario get back to his roots. I love the hand held Mario and DK games their usually some of their best work.

[Soren]

Added Treehouse demos now.

[Stratos]

Thanks for linking the trailers.


Wow, Yoshi's Wooly World is looking to be an amazing game. Co-op, Yoshi's Island gameplay and oodles of charm.

[BranDonk Kong]

It'll take a while, but Nintendo really is trying to fill in the (huge) 3rd party gap. I was actually surprised GTAV wasn't announced for Wii U - probably wouldn't sell extremely well, but it would change just about everything about the console.

[Stratos]

I'm sure it would sell enough to make back it's costs. Maybe not by much, but enough. Nintendo could possibly jump on some joint marketing efforts with these easily ported games and could easily increase the flow of games.

[ShyGuy]

So now that we have a big gameplay demo for Xenoblade Chronicles, what do people think?

[Evan_B]

What's with those facial designs? In making them customizable they look like creepy dolls.

Gameplay looks fantastic though, absolutely gorgeous and a definite improvement from Xenoblade.

[Nile Boogie Returns]

Where's Fast Racing Neo? And where that other game they're making with the super 4k texture mapping? Other than that, my Nintendo Force mag just showed up and this is has been quite a fine week to be a Nintendo fan.

[lolmonade]

I've come to find that I maybe have time for 4-5 games every 6 months. So while many here might complain about the lack of titles for 2014, I'm eagerly anticipating Smash Bros, and will consider getting either Bayonetta, Hyrule Warriors, or Bayonetta 2.

Yeah - 4 or 5 games is what I'd look for too, and that's probably optimistic. Add in the fact that I've got a sizable backlog of Wii games plus a 3DS, and there won't be enough time to play everything I'd like despite the relatively small number of releases.

This gameplay session of Devil's Third makes it look a little better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlv5CfVqhTI
