I have only played the single player in Splatoon so far, I don't find it boring at all. I don't play many games online, but when I do, I almost always beat the single player part of the game first.

i started single player first as well just to get used to the controls but the online is great, i highly recommend switching over. this is coming from a person that doesn't play online games or shooters. my personal favorite weapon is a roller.

I'll definitely try out the online multiplayer, I just want to finish the single player part first. I'm up to (what I think is) the last group of levels, so I don't have much more to play. It's just that I've been busy so I haven't been playing this lately.

The single player is fun until you finally get a good handle on the controls; at that point it becomes too easy in my opinion. Although the final boss was both awesome and challenging.

It's a nice addition that makes sure this game will be at least of some value when nobody plays it online anymore too so they get kudos for that I guess. Online-only console games typically leave little reason to ever go back to them.

Wii U has no games on it my ass.

According to that pic, the Wii U currently has more games than the Xbox One and PS4 combined. According to Wikipedia, the Wii U has the N64 beat as well.

The Wii U has plenty of games. I'm up to about 30 I think. Even if I only get a few more this year and then Zelda next year, I'll be plenty satisfied with the console.

Yeah, the irony here is that RCBH has stated numerous times about how the Wii U has no games and no third party support and that there are no games for the system, yet he was the one that posted this image in the Random Gaming Thoughts thread. If these numbers were remotely true, I am pretty sure there aren't 430 games developed by Nintendo.

Having no games depending on the argument you want to make is still a fair statement if you don't buy digital downloads. Most the WiiU games for that 400+ count aren't at retail. Still saying it has no games is not accurate either way though without adding, that that person wants to buy or would buy.

I have never asked, and I don't think anyone else has. What games do you like to play and what do you consider buying, not WiiU related necessarily.
