"At this year’s E3, I had the opportunity to play Mario Maker, a recently-announced game from Nintendo that lets players design levels for the famous Super Mario Bros. series. I got to the booth and played through a few quick demonstration levels before hopping into the course designer to fiddle with the toolset. I found blocks, warp pipes, various enemies, and a few modifiers at my fingertips. At first glance, it looked like any other Super Mario Bros. level.
But I quickly learned that Mario Maker lets gamers break the rules of the traditional Mario games and put any pieces anywhere. You can make flying Hammer Bros. and multistory Koopa towers. If you can think of it, you can build it, and that’s what Mario Maker is all about. The more creative you get with the small number of tools, the more rewarding the experience becomes.
There were only about nine tools and two aesthetic options, but Mario Maker was nonetheless a complete and compelling product. When my time with the dem...
The Wii U had a pretty rough time. At its lowest moments, people mocked it, laughing at the lack of games and third party support. Even when the system was in a good run of form, people still looked down on it. Like the toaster, from the film The Brave Little Toaster (yeah, i’m going … Continue reading A Fond Farewell To The Wii-U
Just been playing donkey kong tropical freeze amazing game another Nintendo classic.
Wii u such a waste, Would of been nice to see it succeed let's hope switch is successful and
brings us even more Nintendo goodness:)
Don’t let the release date of the NX make you trigger shy, because the Wii U has quite the line up in its five year life cycle, and here are just a few.
Two of those are remakes so I didn't buy...replace the Zelda remakes with Tokyo Mirage Sessions for the unique experience, or Pikmin 3
Wind Waker on the Wii U is still a fun game to play and the use of the gamepad for inventory was convenient; however, I do agree with the other two games you listed. If I had to add, Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze is a lot of fun.
Smash Bros. is a game my friends and I will always play. It's such a fun multiplayer game
Tokyo Is okay so far, but I need to spend more time with it! Been moving, so have not spent much time gaming the past month. :(
I'd add New Super Mario Bros U (easily the best in the "New" Super Mario Bros series), Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, Super Mario 3D World and The Wonderful 101 to this list.
Edit: holy hell, how could I forget Mario Kart 8... I've already put around 150 hours on that title alone.

Not even worth it at that price, with such a tiny library of games available (and very few notable ones).
Theres actually a ton of really excellent games buddy Ive got the stack in front of me. You've missed out on loads of amazing games, that's the reality of whats happening here lol.

Huge library compared to ps4/Xbox one? Or ps3/Xbox 360 because either way it's not comparable
Some of the best games on wiiu are remaster
DKC Tropical Freeze
Super Mario 3D World
Captain Toad's Treasure Tracker
Mario Kart 8
The Wii U has some seriously awesome games!
There are rumors about Xenoblade X getting a Switch port.
I'm not interested on that one, seeing how I've already played it plenty on my Wii U, and finished it (but I'm nowhere near completing it, not even close).
I would love an HD remaster of the original Xenoblade Chronicles, though. What a masterpiece.
Yeah I'm not too keen on the Wii U ports myself, especially considering they haven't been out too long (and still look nice) Wii games would be better (if they updated them)
I skipped the WiiU so I'll probably be down to get a few ports of it's best games.
In Super Mario Maker For 3DS Announced & Release Date | Nintendo Direct 9.1.2016 Splurge Tells you about the nintendo 3DS Livestream called Nintendo Direct...
When are Nintendo going to actually show what the NX is and give details? Its getting very late in the year now.
Its getting to the point where the silence isn't one of mystery and suspense, but one of concern
They already stated more 2d mario games features will be added and online sharing. Panicking already.
people seriously complaining about Nintendo's E3 Demos? First Splatoon saying it needs more maps and modes, which they already confirmed it would, now Mario Maker which has all the way to 2015 before release? Whats wrong with people? They were demos.
I'd spend $60 if it includes a Super Mario World Skin and items, one of my favorite games and the art style hold up well. Also please let there be secret areas (via pipes), I'm sure they will make it a full fledged game with download options
My question is will we be able to make castles and bossfights?
This be Nintendo's LBP game, it looks great.
