Although the Wii U console isn’t doing as well as Sony’s
PlayStation 4 or Microsoft’s Xbox One, E3 wouldn’t be complete without some
announcements from Nintendo. The Japanese company has already made a pass last
year when it didn’t come up with anything big in contrast to the other two
gaming heavyweights that released their newest consoles at the event.
Luckily, this year’s E3 was more of a celebration of games rather
than hardware, so at least the playing field is quite even this time. If you
have a Nintendo Wii U or a 3DS handheld console, here are some of the games you
might be interested in getting in the very near future.
