Now might be a good time to buy a Wii U.

I just wanted to share my excitement for the Wii U system and games that will be releasing for it this year. With E3 still a little over 11 days away, most people might not get my enthusiasm for the system. I'm sure once the 11th of June rolls around, that will change. On June 11th E3 will begin and early that morning, 9am CST, we'll get the E3 edition of Nintendo Direct. We'll see a list of exclusives that are very likely, in my opinion, to be the best lineup of games in 2013. Here are the games I'm currently excited to see...

New 3D Mario (full title not yet available)

If you played Mario Galaxy or and/or 2, then you know why you should be excited about this.

New Mario Kart (full title not yet available)

It's a new Mario Kart, for Wii U. When is Mario Kart not awesome? Never, that's when.

New Super Smash Bros (full title not yet available)
Possibly my most anticipated title of the show. Everyone who's a gamer should be excited for this. Who doesn't love Smash Bros??

Bayonetta 2

When I originally heard that Bayonetta 2 was cancelled, I was upset since I loved the hell out of the first game. Luckily for us, Nintendo stepped in and published the sequel. It's now a Wii U exclusive.

Sonic Lost World

One of the three titles in an announced partnership between Nintendo and Sega. This, like the other two, will be Nintendo exclusive. Meaning either Wii U or Wii U + 3DS. This game looks good, and with the quality of the last two Sonic games, this makes me very hopeful. I can't wait to see more of this.

The Wonderful 101

This looks like Pikmin with super heroes. I'm itching to give this one a shot and see how it plays.

Pikmin 3

It's like The Wonderful 101 with plants... wait... no. I only played a little bit of Pikmin 2 but found it enjoyable, so I'm looking forward to this one.

Yarn Yoshi (possibly not the final title)

I loved Kirby's Epic Yarn. Despite how easy it was (you couldn't die) I enjoyed it a lot. If this one is as fun as that, I'm on board.

The Legend of Zelda The Wind Waker HD (possibly not the final title)

I really liked the original Wind Waker, despite my initial misgivings about its graphical style. The newly remade version for Wii U is right at the top of my "must play" list.

New Zelda Title (full title not yet available)

I'm not sure who much of this we'll learn about, but I'm sure it will at least be mentioned. This game is going to be absolutely massive. Whenever it's shown, whether at this E3 or later on, it will make waves. You'll hear about it.

New Zelda Title (full title not yet available)

I'm not sure who much of this we'll learn about, but I'm sure it will at least be mentioned. This game is going to be absolutely massive. Whenever it's shown, whether at this E3 or later on, it will make waves. You'll hear about it.

If you're even a little bit excited for Nintendo E3 news and information, don't forget to check out the Nintendo Direct the morning of June 11th and the following coverage from gaming websites for the entire week of E3. Oh, and if you're a big Nintendo fan and don't yet own the system? You should buy a Wii U right now.
