I thought that was pretty well established already.
Really though, just play what you like ya know? I put about 53 hours into the Wii U version of Ghosts because I'm insane and it was still fun. I like my manly FPS games as much as I like my weird anime bullshit Vita visual novels. I'll buy Treasure Tracker because it looks hella fun and for only $40. Ya'll need to accept other peoples tastes yo.

On the bright side, Darksiders 2, like Need for Speed Most Wanted U, got incredibly small production numbers and so at some point it might go on a rare list. Don't know that it'll be worth anything.
I almost want to buy Watch_Dogs WiiU simply because it's probably going to be extremely hard to find in the future. In the UK charts it was behind FIFA 13 for Wii U which has been out since launch...
I've waited for a price drop for awhile. It was $40 at one point, much higher than other ports I own (Bat Man: City, Mass Effect, and Deus Ex all under $15). So when I saw the $21 price tag I jumped.
I'll be getting Watch Dogs as well. It'll drop in price quickly I fell.

I can easily tell you the current selection for Wii U is so much better than whatever was on Wii.
Based on what? There's still not much at all on the Wii U, certainly not compared to the Wii. Any big name Nintendo franchise on the Wii U also had an an entry (if not two or three) on the Wii, and there are plenty of Nintendo IPs that haven't been on the Wii U yet. Third party games were much better on the Wii, too.

The Wii U still doesnt have any console style RPG's in the US, unless you count Monster Hunter (which i dont), and the only thing coming out is Xenoblade Chronicles X.
This is very odd for a Japanese console, lack of console style RPG's.
A quick look at GameFAQs shows that there aren't any Japanese-developed RPGs on any 8th gen home consoles, with the exception of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and Final Fantasy XIV. Both are enhanced versions of older games.
Two terrible-looking Final Fantasy games are slated for release on Xbone/PS4 eventually (2015?). Looks like yet another Compile Heart game will be coming to PS4 as well. Plus Kingdom Hearts. Yippee.
New Xenoblade for Wii U looks amazing. Not much else on the horizon.
As far as JRPGs go these days, handhelds >>>>>>> consoles.
But yeah, if you want Japanese flavored RPGs you really have to go to handhelds for them. 3DS and Vita have tons of them.
I still think it will be a disservice to the Wii U to not have a Fire Emblem game. If there's one thing touch screens are helpful for it's strategy games, turn based or otherwise.
