Im finally a cool kid, I have an Amiibo.

I was at a walmart last weekend in middle of nowhere Alabama and in the discount section they had Wiiu Skylanders Superchargers for sale for $9. So as much as I just wanted it to play Skylanders, the Donkey Kong is an amiibo aswell.

Looks like that $175 sale from awhile ago is now the permanent price for a refurbished Wii U.

Wise from yo gwave!

Apparently, Axiom Verge is still getting a physical release for the Wii U (according to Nintendolife, at least). I will definitely get that if it actually comes out.

Also, Lords of Thunder was released for the Wii U VC last week. I picked it up and anyone with the system should do so too.

This is going to be my Christmas present to myself. There's all of ten whole games I want for the Wii U, but I'd still like to play them.
PLAY KING'S FIELD.

My Wii U library is very small, though I have 7/10 of the ones you listed and plan on getting Paper Mario. This thing is a first-party powerhouse.

No Zelda BotW?!

Overall good list. I've got them all but Bayonetta 2. I hate that I missed the double disc release. That went way up in price.

I agree Bone: there's some quality 1st party titles on the console.

This is a good list. If you don’t plan on getting a Switch, I recommend picking up LOZ: BOTW and Mario Kart 8. If you dabble in the eShop, you should definitely grab Affordable Space Adventures. It is wonderful Wii U exclusive and an amazing co-op experience.
