Wii U: Release Dates Known For 2013 Releases

Wii U still has some good titles coming in 2013. Here are the release dates known thus far.

Wii U has recently seen a spike in sales thanks to disappointing details surrounding the Xbox One and the lack of enthusiasm toward the PlayStation 4. That’s not to say there aren’t some gamers who’ll stick with their console or choice in spite of everything, but it’s starting to look like Wii U is the choice for gamers fed up with the unimpressive next generation.

As always, it isn’t the hardware the sells the console in the end. It’s the games you can play on it. After a drought of quality games for the Wii U, the future is starting to look bright. This list comes courtesy of IGN.
