Bayonetta 2 was announced to be released sometime 2014 and was given a brand new trailer and look. Bayonetta herself is sporting shorter hair cut and new outfit, and even her attacks feature different color effects. Along with the trailer we’re given a glimpse into actual gameplay footage of Bayonetta 2 in action. You can take a look at both in the trailer above.
Windwaker HD, coming in October 2013, will feature updated graphics and shaders to give the distinctive windwaker style, a little more refinement. There will also be gameplay updates such as faster sailing which will assist in traveling the great ocean much quicker. The tingle tuner has been replaced with a bottle system which allows Wii U users to create messages in a bottle and send them into other Windwaker games for other players to find. Hopefully, this game will be made into a Wii U bundle.
A brand new trailer was shown off for Monolith Studio’s X, a Wii U game in development that looks amazing and features giant mechs. Really, if the game was being released this year, I’d buy a Wii U right now, but X won’t be released until 2014. Watch the trailer above.

Wonderful 101 will feature 5 player multiplayer, where each player controls their own squad of heroes and works together to take down enemies. The game mechanic is also explained, where the player draws a shape on the wii u game pad and this translates into what form your team of heroes takes, the bigger the shape, the more powerful your form. Likely the multiplayer is online multiplayer, since each player would need access to a Wii U Game Pad. Wonderful 101 will be released August 23rd, 2013
At Nintendo Direct today, Nintendo displayed some of its upcoming 3rd party titles in order to restore faith in gamers that there were games coming to the Wii U. Assassins Creed 4, Batman Arkham Origins, Dues Ex, Rayman Legends, Just Dance 2014, Scribblenauts Unmasked: DC Adventure, Disney Planes/ Disney Infinity/ Shin Megami Tensei IV, Skylanders Swap Force, Splinter Cell Blacklist, Sonic Lost World, and Watch Dogs.
Super Mario 3D World was announced today in the Nintendo Direct stream. The gameplay will feature four player co-op with a roster identical to Super Mario 2, meaning Mario, Luigi, Toad, and Peach, and will play similarly to Super Mario 3D Land on the 3DS. Another new addition is a new power up, the Cat Suit, which allows players to climb up walls, or even those flag poles to nab an easy 1-UP, though I think that’s kinda cheating. Super Mario 3D Land will release on the Wii U in December, 2013.
