There's a broken link on the page that sends you to Xbox 360 deals if you click "Wii U." :P
I don't usually buy games like this, but I'll definitely be making an exception for X.
It looks absolutely amazing, and I want to support the Wii U and its devs every way I can.

Everyone throw around the term "failure" too much. How about we wait until this generation is OVER so we can clearly see how things compared?
In my eyes, a product is a success if it's enjoyed by people. I'm enjoying my Wii U, 3DS, and Vita, so those are all successes in my book.
Of course, it's important to look at sales, but Nintendo's pretty good at turning a profit from low-selling consoles. It's happened before, and it will ...
OH MY GOODNESS
It's no secret that Pokemon X and Y were named that for a specific reason. X and Y are axes... Add Z (the rumored "third" game), and you have 3D. Hence 3DS...
If they're getting clever with their titles, then... Plus and Minus. The two buttons on the Wii and Wii U.
Could it be? They're hinting at it simply from its name?
It's pretty much been confirmed there will be online multiplayer.
Of course, it hasn't been "officially" confirmed, but by examining trailers, you can tell that online multiplayer will be supported, as well as a live text chat (possibly voice as well?)between up to four players.
That's what I was thinking.
They seem to be looking for a lot of positions, and from what I've seen, X is pretty far into development...
This could be for a new game.
That's easy to say from a consumer standpoint.
They create Mario games because they know people will buy them. Taking too many risks, software-wise, does not always prove to be profitable, as Sony has proven.
As gamers, we get impatient and think, "why haven't they made this game? I want it now." However, you need to realize that developers usually do what they do for a reason: it could be they don't have the right resources or they'...
Look...
"We think this mode of play is best possible with the Nintendo 3DS. If, for example, the Wii U were to be portable in its own right we’d probably reconsider."
They simply weren't including the Wii U because it is not portable and could not use the features they wanted to implement.
They never ruled out the possibility of a Pokemon Wii U game in general. And, in fact, this rumor makes it seem that this indeed could be p...
Oh, man! The rumors claim the next region will be similar to South Asia... Look at the background of that picture!
Also, the styles for both this picture and the newly leaked one look very similar!
*explodes in excitement*
Well, if you think about it, camping is just a tactic.
I've been camping in laser tag since I was seven, and it works really well.
I think of cheating as more "taking advantage of what the devs didn't intend to happen," if that makes sense.
The Xbox is actually fairly popular in America, especially among teenagers.
I would personally choose the PS4 over the Xbox One, though.
I thought we were done discussing what gen the Wii U was part of.
This is not hard. The Wii U, PS4, and Xbox One are all successors to 7th gen consoles. That makes them eighth gen. End of story.
The Wii U is still a next-gen console, despite the fact that it is not as powerful as the others.
Well, we don't normally acknowledge the Shield, either, do we?
The Wii U was released a little over one year ago, not two.
Great list! I'm looking forward to all of these!
It's funny how nobody reads the actual article... Everyone is arguing over the PS4 and Xone when the article is explaining why you should buy a Wii U.
Then what's going to sell consoles?
Person 1: Hey, I really like the color of that Playbox U.
Person 2: Me, too! That makes me want it.
Person 1: Here's 400 dollars.
Satire aside, I believe that good games do sell consoles. That's the only thing that makes me want one.
This isn't based on sales. IMO, the Wii U was pretty good this year. It didn't get nearly as many amazing games as the 3DS, but my collection has grown exponentially.
Also, this is grading companies as a whole. That means it takes both 3DS AND Wii U into account and averages them. I think both had great years, despite sales on either end.
While that is true, it's not like the site is
25% Sony fanboys
25% Microsoft fanboys
25% Nintendo fanboys
25% PC elitists
There ARE obviously more of some types than others, and I think that also brings out the "inner fanboy" in some of us.
For example, if there are tons of Microsoft (just an example) fans speaking their opinion, a Nintendo fan may feel nobody agrees with them (when that's not true)....
