Now that Tropical Freeze is out, there's gonna be another Wii U software drought (spare a few multiplats and eShop games) before Mario Kart 8 hits at the end of May. Between now and then, the only games releasing are Shovel Knight, NES Remix 2, Lego Hobbit, and some assorted eShop/Virtual Console games. So until MK8, what will you be playing? Going back through your backlog to finish or 100% some games, playing the few new titles that will be released, or will you not use your Wii U at all and just play on other consoles?

I'll probably end up getting into the meat of my backlog, as well as playing some awesome indie games. :P Really the only things I can do with the drought of games. XD

Rayman Legends, then when I finish that, Assassin's Creed 3 online (What? It's entertaining!), then if I get bored of that I'll probs get Donkey Kong, then when I finish that I'll probs get Wind Waker HD, then when I finish that I'll probs get Pikmin 3, then when I finish that I'll probs get The Wonderful 101, then when I finish that I'll probs get Monster Hunter and there's no way I'd finish that before Mario Kart comes out.

Yeah, I guess you could say I've got a massive backlog.

Everytime i see the word 'drought', i take a look at my backlog and think "what drought!"  So yes, I'll certainly be chipping away at that as well as try to keep up with the gunslinger gang on CoD and NfS.  NES Remix 2 should just add to that once it drops.  I'm sure I'll be nowhere near caught up by MK8 release so no worries of bordom.  What I am a little worried over is my MK8 time.  RL tends to kick up for me around late May so I'm not going to get nearly as much playtime in at release as I'll want.  ...but I'll squirrel away some time for sure!

Psh there are no droughts for me, I don't play games straight, and I always switch up. From what I have I could play AC4, AC3 (If I was really bored), NFS: MWU, Lego City U, 3D World, NSMBU, Zombi U, and others, then I could also buy Donkey Kong (want so bad), and perhaps a eshop thing, then I also have wii games, and 3ds that I never play. Yeah these 'droughts' don't bother me. I'd rather not getting a new big game every month.

Plenty of games if I could stop myself from spending hours on youtube and watching anime like I have been lately. I've got plenty of PS3/PS4/Vita games to entertain me before MK8 releases, and they'll keep me entertained after MK8 drops because MK doesn't interest me at all.


Trophy Cards are classy too! LOLZIGZAGOON

I haven't played a game on my Wii U since the 17th of January and I doubt I'll play a Wii U game until May 30th.

 

Fortunately I have a Gaming PC and a 3DS XL which are keeping me entertained.

Exactly....

 

I'm still not done with NSMBU, which I bought back April with my system.  I have half of Super Mario 3d and will get Donkey Kong tonight.  Rayman- good Lord, I have a long way to go to finish that.  While I want Nintendo to release new games- mainly for their own good, I am in a way glad that it will be a few more months before my next purchase, as I've spent way too much on these things of late.  I have plenty to keep me busy.

 

 

Everytime i see the word 'drought', i take a look at my backlog and think "what drought!"  So yes, I'll certainly be chipping away at that as well as try to keep up with the gunslinger gang on CoD and NfS.  NES Remix 2 should just add to that once it drops.  I'm sure I'll be nowhere near caught up by MK8 release so no worries of bordom.  What I am a little worried over is my MK8 time.  RL tends to kick up for me around late May so I'm not going to get nearly as much playtime in at release as I'll want.  ...but I'll squirrel away some time for sure!

I'll probably get Earthbound, Super Metroid, and F Zero on the VC, and I'll play F Zero GX and Melee some more.
