You’ll be pleased to know that Wii U hard hitters The Legend of Zelda, Star Fox, Xenoblade Chronicles X, and Kirby The Rainbow Curse are still on track to release on the console in the US next year. We heard earlier today that Splatoon, Mario Maker, Yoshi’s Woolly World and Project Guard have been dated for the first half of 2015. The only game that has yet to be dated in Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem which is currently listed as to be determined.
Zelda Wii U, Star Fox Wii U, And Xenoblade Chronicles X, Still On Track For 2015 Release In US

2015 is when the wii u will be saved!
Damn I do not regret this wii u purchase. Have 10 games for it already excluding digital
Still more than the exclusive on PS4 that are actually good XD
Technically 2014 is saving it but 2015 is looking promising
Either SMTxFE is going through severe issues or it’s getting a surprise reveal trailer.
We’ll be getting information and possibly a glimpse of gameplay of SMTxFE this E3. I’m sure of it.
Not to be a dumb-dumb… but what does that stand for?
never mind
It says in the article, but it’s Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem. It’s a crossover Strategy RPG for the Wii U.
Judging how good Fire Emblem Awakening was, I’m looking forward to it. Hopefully it’s out (late) next year.
Yeah, I looked into it…
Yeah, that is a great slate of games… For me it is three in the first half and these three for the second half… damn. 6 games that need to be bought for this system
Can’t wait!!! lots of good games!
Nintendo better talk about Metroid Wii U at 2015 E3. Looking forward to playing Zelda and Starfox.
Fuck yeah! I also can’t for E3 next year! There’s DEFINITELY going to be a playable Zelda Wii U, Starfox Wii U and Fire Emblem X Shin Megami Tensei demo!
I’m just imagining what games that are going to be revealed, next year. Could it be Pokemon Snap? Or F Zero? Diddy Kong Racing? A classic Metroid? A 3D Metroid? New series?
Personally, I would be hyped beyond campare is there was a gritty, incredibly tough, Mischief Makers reboot.
Or a new Final Fantasy Tactics for the 3ds. Seeing that Square and Nintendo are working together more and more, there’s a decent chance for this game.
I’ll definitely be saving my money for Mario Maker, Splatoon, Xenoblade, Zelda, Star Fox, Project Cars and SMT X FE. The only non-Nintendo games I’m really digging is Metal Gear Solid and Indie stuff… Not bad, Nintendo…
I love Yoshi Story and Yoshi’s Island, but I don’t know what to think about Yarn Yoshi. And honestly, Project Guard/ Project Robot/ Captain Toad all seemed like cheap 2nd thoughts. I’ll be avoiding those 4.
I mean, I can’t wait for Smash Bros, but this year’s ~4 great games is easily trumped by next year’s 7+.
It’s whool not yarn retard!
Jeez, dude. Next time you make a mistake, I’ll be sure to meet you with a similar disrespect.
You obviously have never met anyone who is learning disabled. Kid, you don’t understand how offensive you are being by saying that. Grow up.
And I find it super ironic that you misspelled “wool” (whool).
Haha! I was just kidding! XD But I actually do kind of get annoyed when people say Yarn Yoshi instead of Wool. Also yeah I feel stupid for spelling wool wrong! lol XD btw I’m 15 :)
Well it is tough to decipher sarcasm on the Internet.
But in all seriousness, don’t call people “retards”. Jokes are fun, but there are people out there with learning disabled siblings/friends/family who would are really hurt when they hear a kid say something like that. Alright?
Yes I understand that quite well actually. I should have used a less insulting term. Thank you.
There should be more people like you. Your humble reaction has inspired me to keep believing in humanity.
Bravo!
Thanks! I feel I’m the only person who thinks this way! XD
Have you not seen the trailer for Captain Toad? To me it looks superb – every bit as lovable as Super Mario 3D World. I also reserve judgement on Yoshi’s Woolly World though. The art style is simply phenomenal, but we’ll have to see whether the game matches up to that.
For me the thing on the top of the agenda is The Legend of Zelda. I’m glad they’re still saying a 2015 release date. We can only hope, but for me that games matters ten times as much as the rest of the list put together (though I’m certainly very excited about Splatoon, X and Project Cars).
Yeah, the art style for Yoshi Wooly World is pretty good. The Yoshi games have always been really painterly, and this new one is neat, to say the least. But, it just looks a little bit slow paced. But, yeah, we’ll wait and see.
As for Captain Toad, I’ve just been a little bit disappointed in the last few Mario games. 3D world was heaps better than NSMBU, but it didn’t really leave the sense of wonder that SM64 and Galaxy left. Nowadays I prefer the RPG spinoffs (Paper Mario/ Mario&Luigi), so I suppose it’s just a matter of taste.
Zelda- and it’s open world, no less. I too am looking forward to it.
Just Metroid and maybe, just maybe like this might be waay too much to ask but I would really like to see another Last Story game, I think it is copyrighted by Nintendo.
Actually I don’t think it is.
three games I’m looking forward to next year.
Nintendo has been hiding majora’s mask references every chance they get for 2-3 years now,mm3ds please!
That’s very likely to happen next in E3.
If they can get all 6 of these games out next year, we may see a serious turnabout for the Wii U.
What about Devil’s Third? D:
This is only about our sacred games comrade…
But what about Devil’s Third damn it? I’m really excited for that game. :(
Yes, I’m sure they will say something about our conquered games soon…
I hope it’ll come soon to fill that void for a kickass shooter on Wii U and I’m not talking bieng some generic crap like COD, Battlefield and even ASSassin’s Greed.
It’s gonna be huge for Wii U owners, Zelda’s mah jam and I’m waiting for this episode like it was the holy grail. Only lacks Metroid Wii U and my life would be complete.
Splatoon for first half of 2015?!
Freaking AWESOME!
I’d be so incredibly happy if it releases in February; I could get it as a birthday gift!
When is your birthday? Mine is February 19!
February 4th, for me. I’ll be 31 this year.^_^
31? Lucky! You can buy whatever you want! :P I’ll be 16! :D
Nintendo is gonna send me to the poor house next year, there’s too many great games coming for the Wii U next year
Splatoon, Mario maker, Xenoblade chronicles, Starfox, and the cherry on top of the next wii u console year Zelda wii u! I can’t believe this next year could actually be better than a year where we got the fantastic DKTF game, Addicting MK 8, and soon to be legendary Smash for wii u!
And the amazing Bayonetta 2 😉
Let’s not forget about another Wii U exclusive… Devil’s Third.
Devil’s Third is trash. ;)
Oh so I take it you’ve played it already!?
I was joking. In all honesty though, it doesn’t really look that impressive.
Well all we saw was pre alpha footage plus Vanhalla Games said that they will have the graphics looking way better than what they do now. Remember what a lot of people was saying about Bayonetta 2 and Super Mario 3D World in how neither game looked that impressive visually when both games were early in development? Exactly so let’s give Devil’s Third some time before we try to prejudge it, ok?
I meant gameplay wise. I wasn’t talking about the graphics.
everything looks pretty cool, but Devil’s third is my most anticipated game. I love Zelda but I know what I’m getting with Zelda and devil third just looks ridiculously fun
Zelda is all I want. And unfortunately, that’ll probably be a holiday 2015 game. I hope Nintendo has more games other than these. Where’s Mario Party 10?
It’s also slated for a 2015 release, it’s on the upcoming games list
yay, can’t wait for them *-*
All it took was watching a few minutes of Fire Emblem Awakening on a YouTube video for me to hate the entire series and wonder why the heck people loves it so much. It looked SO incredibly boring. I doubt I could EVER like it.
LOL *epic facepalm* Get out Collector. Just… leave. XD
No. YOU leave, kid!
No. I just can’t stop laughing. That comment is worth three facepalms. You watched a few minutes on Youtube and you hate the whole series? LMAO.
Yes, if that’s how the entire series is. It’s nothing like I thought Fire Emblem was. I used to think it was an RPG series, similar to Dragon Quest etc. So you should understand why I’m so dumbfounded by the type of game it really is. Sure, I know I shouldn’t judge the game unless I’ve played it. But it’s the type of game I’d never even care about TRYING to play. And if it really is fun, then I guess I’ll never know.
There’s a demo of it on the eshop. Just download it and get it over with.
its a strategy rpg kinda thing. Its fun for people who like that stuff. and plenty do. I would give it a chance and not judge things by how they look too much. an old me would have thought the same as you but not anymore. I used to think chess was boring as well when I was small(and I still think it is when I am not playing with someone else).
If only you were like my older brother. All he has to see is a video of game to determine whether he likes it or not. I’m trying to explain to him that he should do that but he’s way too stubborn to understand. There was one time where I found out about Skies Of Arcadia Legends (the game released when I was a baby so I was new to it) and I was like “Hey man check this game out! It’s awesome!!!” (He’s a big fan of JRPGs like me) He checked it out with me then said “Vyse looks stupid. I’m not playing this game.” I was like ready to die right there when he said that. He literally missed out on a game as amazing as Skies of Arcadia JUST because he didn’t like how the main character looked…(and Vyse looks fucking awesome)
I haven’t played Fire Emblem yet too and back then I never liked it. When Awakening came out I watched some videos on it and I really wanna try it out! :)
-Data cannot identify any logic behind comment-
IKR?
It’s funny. Everyone getting offended just because I’m insulting a game they like. ; D
Its just a bit dumb to judge a game without playing it.
But sometimes a person can tell when they won’t like a game just by seeing a video. Like, if I see that a game is a first-person shooter (or has ANY first-person camera angles) I KNOW I’ll hate it. Because I despise first-person games.
What FPS games have you played? What are the ones that you like and don’t like?
I’ve only sampled a lot of them. The only ones that come to mind is Turok, Doom 64, Goldeneye etc. And several on Gamecube, but I can’t remember anything specific. But the fact is, not only do I not like first-person camera angles, but these kind of games always make me extremely motion sick. I nearly threw up when playing Doom 64 all those years ago. My eyes can’t handle all of the crazy rotating of the camera. Especially if the game’s graphics are dark and hard to see (like Doom).
That’s because of the frame rate. FPS games are usually much better because they lose that notion blur when they get around 60 frames per second. The ones you played were probably somewhere around 30 and trust me, that crap hurts my eyes sometimes. CoD is usually 60FPS, but I doubt you really care for that game. The stories of FPS games are pretty much non-existent now. There’s always Bioshock if you ever want to try that but yeah, that game will probably give you the same issues. The whole motion sickness thing. ..
I can guarantee that Zelda will be coming out in November. Nintendo seems to really enjoy releasing major Zelda titles in that month.
I need to forget about these games for a while.
1st and personally I don’t care about the release of this game for the US market. I just want to know when Zelda and xenoblade will be available in Europe.
2nd, it does not seems we will have them for the first half of 2015 as I expected.
3rd and final, It seems we will have some games in the first half of 2015. I really though we will get nothing until September
Zelda, Splatoon and X are high priority buys for me. 2015 needs to come faster.

And all I ever wanted was a full fat Pilotwings on the Wii U, not some dumbed down Mii version, or the super short 3DS game. Come on Nintendo, with F-Zero and Pilotwings, the holy grail of Nintendo games will once again be together on a single console! :)
2013 the year we woke up 2014 the year we rose up 2015 the year we fight back!
