Probably not getting a Wii U at launch thanks to my 360 dying again and still wanting a 3DS (which has more MUST-HAVES in my opinion).

But if it is cheap, I will probably ask for it as a gift or something, since my Birthday is November and then there is Christmas.

As for games:
- Pikmin 3
- Zombi U
- Nintendo Land (hoping it is packed in though; Or budget priced)
- NSMBU

Scribblenauts, Game & Wario (unless we hear more amazing things about it), Rayman and LEGO City can all wait. And honestly, so can NSMBU, but I'll probably get it sooner rather than later.

Assassin's Creed III & Sonic Kart Racing I want to get on 360. I will get Sonic on Wii U if they have an awesome exclusive character from Nintendo or something (read: other than Mii). Both of those can wait regardless.

Already own Batman and all DLC except Harley, don't want Mass Effect 3, no interest in most if not all of the other titles. CURIOUS about P-1000, but will only consider if I can get my hands on a demo and I enjoy it.

This also all depends on when I get a Wii U, how much it is (and the games) and what games are readily available.

If I ever decide to buy a Wii U at launch (and at the moment, I'm not sure I will), I think New Super Mario Bros U and maybe Pikmin 2 are games I'd buy. I'm personally considering waiting for Smash Bros and maybe a Zelda game before I buy the console though.

There are only a few titles so far that interest me for the Wii U (and would get at launch):
ZombiU
NSMBU
Nintendo Land (kind of hoping it's included)
Assassin's Creed III
Project P-100

There are some others I have some interest in, waiting for more developments on those though.

As for Assassin's Creed III I think it would be very cool on Wii U, even in comparison with the other consoles, I do wonder how they will utilize the GamePad.

Eventually I'm going to get just about everything, but at launch I'll probably just get Pikmin 3. I don't have a Wii right now, so I'll also be saving up for 4 Wii remotes so that my friends and I can play Nintendoland properly.

Not sure if I'll get it at launch or Christmas... but whenever I do get it, I plan on picking up Nintendo Land, New Super Mario Bros. U, Rayman Legends, ZombiU, Assassin's Creed III, and Game & Wario. Possibly Lego City or Batman. Most likely not all at the same time, but eventually. Other non-launch games I'm looking into are Pikmin 3, Wii Fit U, Project P-100, and Scribblenauts Unlimited. Holy crap, I just realized how many good Wii U games there are gonna be around launch.

Definitely getting NSMBU and Nintendo Land - both great games to show of the new GamePad! Can't wait for ZombiU either it's about time a Nintendo console had an original zombie game! :D
Counting down the days to the Wii U launch!!!

Nintendo Land (with the bundle), NSMB U, Scribblenauts Unlimited, and perhaps ZombiU. :) Couple that with a whole bunch of Wii games I haven't played yet/haven't finished yet due to having a broken Wii for 2 years, I'll be playing my Wii U for a long, long time! :mrgreen:

Not sure if I'm still going to get a black Wii"U" at or around launch but I'll try my very best to purchase it along with NSMBU.

Not getting at launch, but when I get, Black Wii U w/Nintendo Land confirmed.

NSMBU, Zombi U, Rayman Legends.

Pikmin 3 depends on when it's getting released, and Zombi U and Rayman may be pushed back due to the fact I know those will go down in price. NSMBU is never going to price drop, so may as well just get that.

Now that I realize I have no money, I'm going to get 0 games at launch (except for Nintendo Land). I really want NSMBU and ZombiU, but there is no way I'll have enough cash to get those games. Right now, I'm just hoping I can get the system at launch.

There's no way I'll be able to afford everything I want at launch. BUT I will change up my picks a bit. Definitely getting the Deluxe Bundle, so NintendoLand fo' sho'. After that...:

-Scribblenauts Unlimited (the NP feature sold me on it)
-Assassin's Creed 3
-New Super Mario Bros. U
-Darksiders II*
-NBA 2k13*

And pretty much everything announced for the eShop so far (Runner 2, Chasing Aurora, Toki Tori 2, Trine 2: DC, Nano Assault Neo, The Cave, Cloudberry Kingdom), so I'll probably be sacrificing at least one of said retail games.

Sort of want ZombiU & Rayman Legends, but I see a price drop shortly after their release(s). Hope I'm wrong, but either way I won't likely be getting either at launch.

*Might pick it up on another platform due to price drop and/or sale

I'm super excited for Pikmin 3 and NSMBU

The Wonderful 101 is a must-get as well.

I'm also 99% sure i'll get Rayman and ZombiU

i''ll most likely wait for a bunch of the other ones to get a bit cheaper, like darksiders and scribblenaughts

Should I feel bad that I am not interested in Wonderful 101?

I'd get it at a budget price, but I don't really see $60 in it. It's something I'd definitely pick up for cheap, but it's not grabbing my full attention.

I do want Scribblenauts, just not sold on if I want it for Wii U or 3DS.

eShop-wise, Runner2 is a definite. The Famicom Mode on the tablet sold me on the Wii U version instead of getting it for 360. The Cave looks cool. No idea what Cloudberry Kingdom is, and I have no reason to get Mighty Switch Force unless they fill it with extra crap. I am perfectly fine with my 3DS version.

What I want, and what I'll actually get are two different things. I want the Deluxe Wii U,
New Super Mario Bros U,
Wii Fit U,
Darksiders 2,
Game and Wario,
Skylanders Giants,
Epic Mickey Power of Two,
Rabbids Land,
Rayman Legends.
and possibly Lego City Undercover (the presentation was interesting!)


I will probably get four or five of them around launch, and others down the road.

I think I've narrowed my day one buys to...

• New Super Mario Bros. U
• Trine 2
• Mighty Switch Force HD

And of course I'll be getting Nintendo Land too since I'm picking up the Deluxe set. And as soon as my wallet cools off a little from all that, I'll look into grabbing The Wonderful 101, Darksiders II and Pikmin 3 as well.

The only FOR SURE titles I'm getting at launch, mainly due to budget constraints, will be Pikmin 3 and NSMBU.

And, because I pre-ordered the premium bundle, I'll also be getting Nintendo Land with it.

Other than that? Well, there's a couple games I've thought in the past about getting on PS3 that I might as well, IF I get them at all, get on Wii U, such as Batman, Tekken, and Aliens. Lego City Stories interests me, as does The Wonderful 101 (which looks really fun). And of course, while I still haven't played more than the demo of Origins, Rayman looks cool.

So I don't know. Those top 2 for SURE, everything else, is completely up to budget or people possibly helping a brother out with Christmas presents, lol.
