What are some good games for it? The game library at this time is pretty bad though.
Games I am interested in for it:
Nintendo Land, Fire Emblem x Shin Megami Tensi (when it releases), Wind Waker HD (again, when it releases), Monster Hunter 3: Ultimate. |

@Zekrom, Wind Waker is getting a HD remake. I honestly do not think that Nintendo will announce the "Big Wii-U" Zelda title this year.
@Anti, it is a good console? It just lacks games. |

*that's quite laughable if I say so
sorry spelling error
its an okay console I guess, but it still cant keep up with the standards of normal consoles these days
It doesn't offer much new features and doesn't have good games |

it might be awhile for good games to come out
hell its gotten some bad press I think because apparently the Wii U has some bad hardware (it cant even use the frostbite 3 engine, normal consoles can) and a lot of developers are being put off because the wii u and the games itself are not getting many sales |

| Just look at how the 3DS started, now look how well it is selling. The 3DS had a worst title line-up than the Wii-U in my opinion. It just needs time, plus it is lowering in price. (You could of got the Wii U deluxe pack with Nintendo Land and ZombiU from HMV for only £199.). |

"(it cant even use the frostbite 3 engine, normal consoles can)"
I don't think this is actually true. It's specs are insanely close to that of the 360 and it can run it.
They probably don't feel the Wii U has enough of a fanbase for their games, thus they don't want to distribute for it so they can maximize their profits or something like that.
That or Microsoft, Sony and game developers are conspiring against Nintendo to ring them out of the game, unify and form a monopoly.

PS3 and Xbox 360 can run the frostbite 3 engine. There's already preorders available for the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of BF4 so I assume it runs it.
"It's specs are insanely close to that of the 360 and it can run it."
I assume you're talking about the Wii U?
According to what I've read about it, the Wii U has a horrible CPU and a okay GPU (550mhz AMD Radeon-based High Definition GPU) and from what DICE has said, Wii U couldn't play the Frostbite 2 engine that well so Frostbite 3 is cant.
"They probably don't feel the Wii U has enough of a fanbase for their games, thus they don't want to distribute for it so they can maximize their profits or something like that."
Maybe so. Wii U has gotten mixed press at the moment and some developers are being put off, maybe some developers cant program for the Wii U.
"That or Microsoft, Sony and game developers are conspiring against Nintendo to ring them out of the game, unify and form a monopoly."
Haha.
although I feel that the Wii U didn't feel like a next gen console (It is) and from what I've searched the Wii U doesn't carry many innovative or unique features
Maybe it does, maybe I'm being slightly judgemental here and I should try the the Wii U for myself. I don't want to though as the bad release is somewhat putting me off |

I got a feeling good Wii U releases will speed up in this year, but its kind of looking bad for Nintendo at the moment |

(LaCoffeeMan here)
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, and New Super Mario Bros U as of now.
Pikmin 3 comes out in August, and Rayman Legends comes out in September. But Mario Kart U and Wind Waker come out this fall. Yarn Yoshi also is expected to come out this year too. I'd recommend those.
Monster Hunter 4 and Super Smash bros come out next year btw. |

"I got a feeling good Wii U releases will speed up in this year, but its kind of looking bad for Nintendo at the moment" That is what happened to the 3DS, but now look at it! After all, it is Nintendo!
"Get EarthBound. DO IT.

I am. Comes out on Wii U virtual console.
@La, I think MH4 will be on the 3DS. And yes, all the fantastic titles are coming winter, and that is why I want one. I am a Nintendrone after all. |

Mostly all that you mentioned and maybe a few eShop games.
I've never played an SMT game, but if it has FE it must be at least decent |
