Last week we looked at six promising titles for the upcoming Wii U launch day on November 18th. This week we will look at six more, including an updated version of Ninja Gaiden III, and some of the biggest Nintendo exclusives: New Super Mario Bros. U and Nintendo Land.
While the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions of Ninja Gaiden III were generally panned for a bland experience and neutered gameplay, Team Ninja seems to be looking to rectify the mistakes of the past with the Wii U port, Ninja Gaiden: Razor’s Edge. Team Ninja has added so many new features, improved on many that were introduced in the other versions of Ninja Gaiden III, and tinkered with the main gameplay so much that Razor’s Edge almost feels like a completely new game.
With “Rayman Legends,” a Wii U exclusive, being announced earlier this week to no longer be a launch title for the Wii U system, it is time to look at what games will be released in a little over a month when Nintendo’s upcoming system is finally released. With around 23 games being released on November 18th alongside the system, including some well known third-party games as well as a few Nintendo exclusives, it should be a great day to be a gamer.
In a recent “Iwata Asks” segment on the Nintendo website, it was revealed that Pikmin 3 will now have a much later release window than originally anticipated. Being one of the few original Nintendo IPs being currently announced for release on the Wii U, will Pikmin 3’s delay help or hinder the fledgling system?
In a newly released interview as part of Iwata Asks, various Wii U developers and designers discuss the range of the Wii U Gamepad, a feature of the device that has long remained a point of great interest.
While Madden NFL ’13 on the Wii U will lack some of the key features of the Xbox 360 & PS3 versions, the developers have decided to make use of the unique Wii U technology to alter the gameplay and offer a more tight-knit and accessible experience.
The new trailer for Tekken Tag Tournament 2 Wii U Edition reveals some of the new features that will appear exclusively in the game. With Nintendo themed costumes and a few crazy new game modes, including the return of Tekken Ball, Tekken Tag 2 looks like a colorful, flashy, and an insanely good time.
