Wii U, Which games are worth playing.
« on: March 16, 2017, 04:45:28 pm »
Afternoon/Evening,

So now that the switch is out the price of 2nd Hand Wii U took a dive of price into my area of expertise.  So I picked one up with a bunch of games.  Really looking for what the must have games are for the wii U, Sure I'm not expecting there to be more then a dozen or so, But hey for what I paid for it :)

Already have Zelda the windwaker, Mario Kart 8, Splatoon, super Mario Bros U, Super Mario Maker, Nintendo Land, Zombi U, Just Dance, And last but not least Zelda Breath of the wild.

Haven't played it yet, but if it's anything like the prior 3DS game of the series, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze is probably worth playing. And yeah if you get anything, get BotW, it's awesome.

The only 2 other games I played before Breath of the Wild was Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and Terraria.

Anything made by Nintendo that isn't a sports title or a "party" title.  It's a Nintendo console, you by the Nintendo games... that shouldn't have to be explained.

Did you hack it?  I can't find enough worthwhile games to fill a 128gb thumb drive.

Well that has more to do with the fact that Nintendo games are notoriously tiny file-wise.  My problem is by the time it was hacked I already owned most of the games and had played through them.

You can get snarky all you want, but when you say something stupid, expect a reply.  :)

Cheers guys, Was pretty much as expected then. Nintendo games for the win.  I'll get Rayman for the missus too I think.  I'll have a look at Hacking it, But normally just pick up the games as they get cheaper.
