While the Wii U top three is absolutely correct how did Xenoblade Chronicles X already get in top three of posts with only two weeks in the West?

i hope spla2n is an nx launch title, would prefer to see more of it over other ninty franchises. thrilled it's done so well
Lots, lots, and lots of miiverse posts asking how this shit works and where to find stuff, I'm guessing

I could be wrong but aren't Miiverse communities opened before a game is released?

Nintendo reveals the 3 noteworthy releases they've had this year.

Man, that's a great list of games. If you owned both a Wii U and 3DS, you had a pretty good year, aside from a very slow summer.

I'm not sure what else would have even been close to the Wii U top 3. Yoshi? After that it seems like a pretty steep drop off with stuff like Amiibo Festival, Devil's Third, Mario Tennis, Fatal Frame, and whatever else I'm not remembering.

TriForce Heroes at #2? Over MH4 too? Have these people actually played TriForce Heroes or are they just voting for it because it's Zelda? Because that game sucks.
L + A posts most likely.

I know right?
it's most popular games on miiverse i believe. so the most posts.

Ok that makes sense. It's people using Miiverse to communicate, since it doesn't have in-game voice or text chat.

Did you play it? Because the game was great fun
Also, I think this was based on a miiverse poll thing where people could opt in and say their favorite game and why, not number of miiverse posts. I remember making an entry for the 3ds one

Yes, those sure are the three wii u games you might want to have purchased in 2015.

I thought it was brilliant. Maybe your opinion is a minority?
While granted, the Splatoon devs got the first game done in a little over a year, the fact that they're still working on additional content for Splatoon doesn't bode well for Splatoon 2 (or Spla2n, as some are nicknaming the probable sequel) making it out for the NX's launch. Maybe if one of the NX form factors is saved for Spring 2017, you could be technically right. But unless they're working on Spla2n simultaneously with (what may be) the last of the first game's DLC, I doubt they'll have it ready for a Holiday 2016 release.

No, I'm pretty sure it got mediocre reviews and most people did not like it around here.

Most people on the OT seemed to enjoy it. And the reviews mostly docked for the single player (which misses the point entirely since that was definitely tacked on). And most hate on gaf arises from people who never gave it a chance

I'm not a fan of the Zelda games, but I enjoyed the game a lot. The downside is getting a good game with randoms (who have bad connections or ragequit), but otherwise the game is a pretty solid co-op romp.
Good to see you are in there a lot also.

Yeah, playing the game online and offline is an exercise in frustration. It's not fun. Someone should have upended that tea table.
Smash came out last year. Yoshi uhh...I got nothing.
I know =(.
Where did you pull that from? They worked on the game for over two years before the retail release.

I was wondering when we would see the results from the contest. Guess I didn't win an eshop code. ;-;
Nice to see Splatoon up top and Trifoce Heroes holding second.

They said that they were only 10% done as of E3 2014, if I recall correctly. Though that's from what I was told here on GAF.

Considering those are like the only three Wii U games released all year that's not really surprising.

Nice for XCX at #3 for Wii U and MM3D at #1 for 3DS, very pleased.
That's a relative thing to whoever answered that. But the team formed at the end of 2012 according to Sato - lead programmer.

Very odd to see XCX as it just came out and not Smash considering how big that title is.

Smash came out in 2014, I think these are games that came out this year.
Wasn't most of that time planning? Because either they took their sweet time for the first 10% (which may have been the hardest part of development), or they really picked up the pace for the latter 90%.....or both. And even then, unless they up their staff, this wouldn't bode well for the time it'll take for Spla2n to hit the NX Platform
