Aside from many of the games mentioned..one game I recently remembered that I played through a few times wayy back for SNES and while it is a little different, I wished they would make an updated remake is Joe and Mac (the cavemen duo)..

@xgraderx: im feeling the same, kind of like I've been ignoring a big part of video games over the last decade..

I think I see both your points.. First Nintendo probably does casual gaming better than the rest and do it well..however, to master these games it can be very challenging. They are not easy games by definition, yet most novice players could probably pickup a controller and within minutes get immersed in the game and start understanding what to do..compared to a PS3/Xbox which for the most part, the games require much more setting-up and seem more demanding in terms of follow-up needed to complete... Also Pikmin3 is def on my list of games to get later on...Here's the games I'd love to try (aside from the 2 Im getting already Ghosts/SMW3D) and hoping that I can find the time to beat them all this year:

WW HD, Pikmin3, ZombieU, DKC Tropical freeze..

Nice can't wait to try it out as well.. Although I still never ended up beating the last one BO2, Kind of just never got around to finishing up the game..It seems like theres some new things going on in this version.

Exactly I meant COD:Ghosts.... gotta love swype sometimes..yea since I haven't played any games for it at all. . There's currently more than enough games to keep me busy whenever I'm not busy..Nintendos got that magic that can't be replicated on PS or Xbox.. and believe I have them all. .. but after years I'm looking forward to some Mario etc. .pikmin3 seems like a cool game add well. .id like to try that after

Well the reason I bought the wiiu now was as a holiday gift to the family, plus I got it through a program at my job which is payroll deduct... so I jag the chance to get ps4, xbox1 for just little bit more per check but didn't feel like either offered me the gaming I want now. .I'm sure eventually ill pick up a ps4 a year or more later on. I got the wiiu with cid as it came as a bundle and also ordered mario 3d.. excited for that one. .seems like something not only I wan my to play but can be fun for the whole fam to get in on in the living room. I think the 3ds did so good last xmas that those who picked that up will hopefully get the wiiu this year instead. .

Long story short.. I was at Best Buy last week and found the wife playing around with the Wiiu while I talked to the Car Alarm guy. She quickly tried the Zelda WW game for few minutes, and we both liked it. This was after we just finished playing Link to the Past DL on Wii 2 weeks ago and introduced my 9 yr old daughter to it. I've also been feeining some new Mario games lately, as I haven't really played any Mario games in probably a decade!. At my house we have just about everything from PS3 w/ move,360 w/ Kinect, wii etc.. We've spent the past few years playing the CODS etc..and lately I just been tired of the realism and same stuff and wanted something fun and relaxing, something like Nintendos games.... I have the GTA V barely touched on PS3 (although its a great game and all), BO2 i pretty much stopped playing it after only beating two levels and getting like rank-30.. I've just been too busy w/ school and everything else to dedicate as much time as I used to to video games..and after seeying that new Mario 3D I'll admit I was sold on it.. I bought the wiiu online should get it real soon.. A co-worker of mine I know bought two of them for his house, so hopefully the sales keep going.
