11. Darksiders II
12. Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge
13. Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper
14. Madden NFL 13
15. Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two
16. Tekken Tag Tournament 2: Wii U Edition
17. Chasing Aurora
18. Just Dance 4

20. EA Sports FIFA Soccer 13

I am SO happy that Trine 2 is so high up there. The Frozenbyte guys have to be really happy to see that. Awesome!

 

[Instro]

Good stuff for Trine 2 and Nano Assault.

 

[Karsticles]

I'm pretty happy with that list. Are there any games that aren't on that list that people think should be?

 

[Takao]

I see Wii U owners are big Call of Duty fans.

 

[Macho Madness]

I really want to grab Trine 2 on the eShop because I adored the first game but I just can't get myself to jump at the $20 price point. I know it sounds silly but I have so many other games to play right now that even a $5 price cut would have made me grab it instantly. Ugh.

I see Wii U owners are big Call of Duty fans.

It's not on the eShop.

 

[Ashler]

Is there a link for that?

 

[Hanmik]

so next week Fifa 13 will be on top..?

 

[Macho Madness]

Is there a link for that?

No, it's on the eShop itself.

 

[farnham]

trine 2 and nano assault i got instantly.
lil inferno and mighty switch force will follow

 

[CrisKre]

Get trine 2. The ammount of content is ridiculous and it plays like a charm on the gamepad.

 

[PhantomR]

Is there a link for that?

It's in the actual eShop on the Wii U console, so no unfortunately. If Nintendo posts a link on their website or something I'll be sure to grab it.

 

[dmr87]

Top 2 was easy enough to figure out, and the only ones you need.

 

[Ashler]

No, it's on the eShop itself.

Cheers.

 

[Takao]

It's not on the eShop.

Not all Wii U games are on the eShop? That's kind of stupid.

 

[MormaPope]

Funky Barn not being available on the eShop is a great injustice to all Wii-U owners and gamers alike.

 

[Neo C.]

If only Nintendo would give us numbers. Would love to see how much money the devs get for Trine 2 and Nano Assault.

 

[Macho Madness]

Not all Wii U games are on the eShop? That's kind of stupid.

I'm assuming it's up to the publisher.

 

[masud]

It's not on the eShop.

Yeah it sucks too, I want to buy it but I'm going all digital.

 

[TriGen]

Little Inferno is doing alright. Good to see.

 

[CaVaYeRo]

No, it's on the eShop itself.

You know if it differs from region to region? Anyone able to check?

 

[PhantomR]

Not all Wii U games are on the eShop? That's kind of stupid.

All of Nintendo's games are. It's up to 3rd parties on this one.

 

[Macho Madness]

You know if it differs from region to region? Anyone able to check?

I'd guess that some EU gaffers would have to check if there's even has one. US just got this list today.

 

[DimmuBurgerKing]

Saw this earlier. Fantastic to see Nano Assault up there! I'm considering Trine 2. I always meant to pick it up on Steam but somehow never got around to it. I'm not surprised to see NSMBU is #1. For me, it was a no-brainer to download. That way it's always at the ready, disc or no.

 

[Linkhero1]

Nano Assault deserves it. I still need to get Trine 2.

 

[PhantomR]

You know if it differs from region to region? Anyone able to check?

Since Europe just got their Wii Us we may need to wait a week or so to check. I don't they're going to have a top 20 list just yet.

 

[DaSorcerer7]

How much are Trine 2 and nano assault?

 

[Tizoc]

Glad to see Sonic Transformed is among the Top 5 =)

 

[Macho Madness]

How much are Trine 2 and nano assault?

Trine 2 is $20, and Nano Assault is $10.

 

[Linkhero1]

How much are Trine 2 and nano assault?

Trine 2 is $20 and Nano Assault is $10.

Edit: beaten and we posted the exact same thing minus the comma

 

[Instro]

How much are Trine 2 and nano assault?

Nano is $10, not sure about Trine 2. $15 I think.

edit
Guess its $20.

 

[Aeana]

I've been considering Nano Assault. I might pull the trigger; people seem to like it and the 3DS version too well enough.

 

[PhantomR]

How much are Trine 2 and nano assault?

$19.99 and $9.99 respectively, I believe.

 

[Linkhero1]

I've been considering Nano Assault. I might pull the trigger; people seem to like it and the 3DS version too well enough.

Do it. I'm still amazed on how they made a 50mb game look that gorgeous.

 

[DaSorcerer7]

Trine 2 is $20 and Nano Assault is $10.

Nano is $10, not sure about Trine 2. $15 I think.

edit
Guess its $20.

Cheers guys, does anyone have the UK pricing by any chance?

 

[PhantomR]

Glad to see Sonic Transformed is among the Top 5 =)

The game is awesome, but it REALLY needs more people online. I guess I'm spoiled with Mario Kart Wii, where it is always packed when you play online.

 

[GrotesqueBeauty]

Zombi U sales seem like a positive sign. Wonder what the actual numbers are for that list. Props to Ubisoft for giving the Wii U some original content. Hope Rayman Legends pays off for them as well.

 

[thegodsend]

Trine 2, Nano Assault and Little Inferno will be mine.

 

[Celeryface]

By default, the list isn't ordered. You can sort the list by Popularity. The Top 3 "Popular" titles are all indie games!

 

[Linkhero1]

Cheers guys, does anyone have the UK pricing by any chance?

I don't but I would assume it would be about the same converted. Not sure if they inflate the pricing or not.

 

[Macho Madness]

Cheers guys, does anyone have the UK pricing by any chance?

Trine 2 will be special launch price of £10.99 (Will be £13.99 on January 1). Nano Assault is £8.99.

People have great taste My purchases this weekend

 

[DGRE]

I see Wii U owners are big Call of Duty fans.

Backfire.

 

[PAULINK]

Tekken is too far down, cmon guys! Meatiest fighter of this decade!

 

[Oni Link 666]

I wouldn't put too much weight behind these charts. I mean, Darksiders II might be above Ninja Gaiden 3, but Ninja Gaiden's Miiverse community is a couple thousand members larger.

 

[oatmeal]

I wish I could go back in time and buy Mario and zombiu on eshop. I want to be all digital.

 

[PhantomR]

Still don't know what the deal with Activision is in regards to the eShop.

Also, very disappointed that neither Batman or Mass Effect 3 are available digitally.

 

[Dreamwriter]

10. Nintendo Land

This makes me sad that so many people are buying this - people buying this game either bought the Wii U Basic set and then purchased the game anyways, losing out on the extra stuff you get with Deluxe set basically for free, or they are getting a Deluxe and then buying a second copy of the game so they don't have to swap discs to play it.

 

[Kevtones]

Get trine 2. The ammount of content is ridiculous and it plays like a charm on the gamepad.

And sold

 

[PhantomR]

I wouldn't put too much weight behind these charts. I mean, Darksiders II might be above Ninja Gaiden 3, but Ninja Gaiden's Miiverse community is a couple thousand members larger.

Could be because more people purchased the disc version of that game....same with Nintendo Land.


I DO think these charts are important because they allow us to gauge how well the indie games are performing. So far, they are really kicking ass.

 

[Takao]

All of Nintendo's games are. It's up to 3rd parties on this one.

This is something Nintendo probably shouldn't have given third parties freedom over. I expect all PS4/720 games to be on PSN/XBLA as well as having their retail versions.
