Did any of you play Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon? If you haven't, you should. Especially Burt.

Are there any non-kids' games that are worth getting for Wii U? I can't seem to find anything.

The Walking Dead one isn't bad, same with the Resident Evil one. There are quite a few first person shooters out there, haven't played many of them though.

What kind of games are you interested in?

Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed: Black Flag were pretty good. I'm not sure about the Wii U's version of Watch Dogs but that was an enjoyable game. Shovel Knight is an excellent, old school 2D downloadable game.

Also, while it may seem simple/cheesy, it is actually difficult/fun: Cloudberry Kingdom

I'm still only a level 12 and have only played about 2/3 of the story missions.

I can't stop thinking about how awesome it would be if Telltale made an episodic game based on Sons of Anarchy.

Is Shovel Knight as hard as they say?

That show is fucking lame. We, the viewer, are meant to believe that these ass-retarded white trash bikies are criminal masterminds, always one step ahead of the feds? Bullshit. Also, the acting is utter trash, save for Perlman.

I'm not saying the show is great by any means. But a Telltale game based on it would kick ass.

I played a timed demo and frankly that was enough. Didn't really feel compelled to buy it. Though to be fair I hate 80s nostalgia.

Dunno how to feel about this one. Tim Schafer's kickstarted adventure (which I backed) has seen a lot of criticism in how it was handled. In theory, I like the idea of an old school adventure game, but these graphics already look badly dated in a way that Monkey Island/Day of the Tentacle/Full Throttle, etc don't.

The Simpsons Tapped Out is fun. The gameplay is pretty standard, but it's the little details that make it great.

I bought it. It seems overpriced for what you get.

Yeah, reminds me of Mega Men games. I haven't played the entire game as I'm waiting for it to come to Vita/PS4 early next year.
