jawafour wrote:Yeah, I'd probably be up for Zelda Twilight, Star Fox Zero, Pik 4, Papes and Zelda U.
There are a couple of third party disc titles, too: Lego Avengers (next week) and Mighty No. 9 (Feb)... plus maybe Minecraft (TBC).
There's no getting away from the fact that pickings will be slim, but hopefully eShop releases wiil bolster the line-up.

Now, this is the kind of comment that could cause hysteria! Don't panic, Club U - TWA isn't about to leave the U behind. I have it on good authority that he'll soon be back online and continuing his role as a complete gooseberry fool in Mario Kart.

Magic, you missed it - it had a few quid off about two weeks ago but it's back to the standard price now, dude. I kinda wish I had picked it up, too.
Affordable Space Adventures (KnapNok Games) - €13.20/ £11.80 (Ends February 4, normally €18.99 / £16.99)

LoZ: Twilight Princess HD

Pikmin 4?

Mario and Sonic at Rio 2016
SEPTEMBER
Paper Mario U?
NOVEMBER
LoZ U
Thrown in a couple of GC remasters like Super Mario Sunshine and that's not bad for a system on its last legs

Wow. The year of the WiiU is upon is.

Unless of course you've not yet bought one. In which case the year's line-up looks like this:
JANUARY
Post reply to chalkitdown on GRcade
FEBRUARY
Wii U price slashed to £149.99 with two free gaemz (Splatoon and DMLGOTF Mario Maker)
MARCH
Mario Kart 8 announced as free-to-play for all Wii U owners. GR stream becomes most popular channel on Twitch; Steve comes out of forum retirement, his subsequent swear-laden tirade against noobs goes viral
APRIL
Starfox U released; actually a cross between Lylat Wars & GC Starfox Adventures (except good) with elements of Metroid Prime and Fallout 4 thrown in. Early GOTY contender
MAY
Nintendo admit AC amiibo festival was a filler; full-on proper Wii U Animal Crossing announced. Best version yet
JUNE
Nintendo announced its new "U MUST BUY MII" range of discount hits. Each title £9.99 + free amiibo. Dan buys Wind Waker HD, Mario 3D World, Pikmin 3, Smash Bros and Tropical Freeze
JULY
Pikmin 4 MMO; Nintendo profits go through the roof; movie-tie-in announced directed by Alejandro G. Iñárritu
AUGUST
Mario and Sonic at Rio pulled due to IAAF doping scandal; Sega decide to develop good games instead. Sonic Boom 2 not terrible; jawa vindicated
SEPTEMBER
Paper Mario U better than TTYD, absolutely nothing like the vile piece of scum that was 'Super' Paper Mario. True believers rejoice
OCTOBER
Sony announce PS5 in order to counter struggling PS4 sales due to Nintendominance
NOVEMBER
Zelda U so good, solves international conflicts. UN announces 'World Peace Day'; Bernie Sanders' speech: "no longer shall any nation Triforce in resolving their differences". Wins Presidential race by landslide; confessed Xbox owner Trump fails to carry any states
DECEMBER
GRcade replaces Google as default homepage for Chrome users; Dan buys Captain Toad. Slightly disappointing. But hey, it's Christmas

. . See, the system really is now getting the same content as other consoles... third party season passes - now we can have the option of paying more for games, too .Dan. wrote:

I've not picked it up, magic - but it gained a warm reception with an 81 assessment on Metacritic. I'd like to support it because it's hugely original, contains some good ideas and is exclusive to the U... but I've only just splashed out on another game so I'm not sure.
