What's that you say? A top 10 for a console that has no gaemz!?!
You should all have had enough time to play on Breath of the Wild to determine whether it deserves a place in your top 10 best games.
So let's send the Wii U out in style by determining its top 10 games of all time!
If you need a reminder,
here’s a list of Wii U gamesJust list your top 10 below (each counts for one vote, so ranking them isn't important).
Voting is open for a month, and will close on 30 June.As always, I look forward to seeing your nominations.
I guarantee this is the most important vote you will make this month.

1) Mario Kart 8
2) Super Mario Maker
3) Sonic Boom
4) Thomas Was Alone
5) Pikmin 3
I've made my selections based purely on the fun that I have got out of the games. I feel bad because, although I know there are lots of other cool games, I just haven't played them for long enough to justify voting for them.

Haven't purchased/played DKC:TF, Paper Mario, Xenoblade, or Captain Toad so they might have made my list
Haven't included the Zelda remakes, TP:HD would probably make it, still need to play WW:HD
Star Fox was dissapointing

Some great games on the Wii U, but I'm definitely not one of those that even thinks it comes close to the library of something like the Dreamcast. There's a couple of games in my top 10 where my opinion of them is pretty negative. NSMBU for being too much of the same thing, and XBCX which felt a long way short of it's predecessor, and it's open World reminded me of the PS2 era.

Copy pasting from a similar SONM thread:
Only including games I played on WiiU (for example, no BOTW as I have it on Switch and no WW as I have it on GC).
Mario Kart 8
The best Mario Kart (although the Switch version has the original WiiU game beat) and one of the best kart racers ever made. Near-perfect for local multiplayer, MK8 still gets played regularly with my housemates.
Super Mario Maker
Is there a game more perfect for the WiiU and gamepad than Super Mario Maker? Probably not. User created 2D Mario executed near perfectly - all we need now is an expanded sequel to add functionality such as multiplayer and (deep breath) slopes.
Splatoon
A brand new Nintendo IP that has firmly secured itself a place alongside the other Nintendo greats. As an online shooter Nintendo had a lot to prove with Splatoon, and they did it. Everything from the fresh aesthetics and music to the superbly balanced gameplay makes this one of the best shooters of recent years - who thought that would be said about a NIntendo developed WiiU game?
ZombiU
This launch game still remains one of the best uses of the gamepad. An excellent singleplayer experience with an underrated but very fun asymmetric multiplayer mode that completes the package.
Hyrule Warriors
I might prefer the 3DS port, but Hyrule Warriors is still an excellent game on WiiU. A near-perfect blend of modern Musou and Zelda, the love here for both franchises is obvious.
Nintendo Land
A mixed bag of games overall, but Mario Chase alone elevates this to games-to-always-have-to-hand status. The world needs more asymmetric multiplayer games, and we can only hope they are half as fun and accessible as Mario Chase.
Devil's Third
I know what you're thinking, and it's true that the singleplayer here missed the mark (although I think it's still worthy of merit for the glimpses of how it could have all come together so much better). The online here was really the best part though, and it's a tragic shame that so few people played it. I had an absolute blast in the short time I spent with the game.
Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games
Or to give it it's proper title: Mario & Sonic Rugby Sevens. If Mario Chase is what makes Nintendo Land, Rugby Sevens is what makes M&SR2016OG (better shorthand on a postcard please).
Super Smash Bros. U
I'm far from a big smash fan, but the multiplayer appeal is unarguable and I do enjoy the new board game mode.
Fast Racing Neo
Until Nintendo finally give us a new F-Zero, Fast Racing will suffice. It's not quite on the level of F-Zero GX (what is?), but it's a great racing game.

Great Console! No disappointment from my side. I don't have as much time as many of you to play games so there were plenty enough high quality games for me. Plus I bought my Wii U late, so I had a full selection of games from day 1.
I still have some huge titles to play that I don't own yet.
