I still want Yoshis Wooly World ported to Switch it was one of my favorite Wii U game and I would buy it again for the Switch port!

[@OctarianSquid]

Yes

[@GameBlock_]

I remember playing the Mario chase in nintendoland with my dad so much as a kid. I really hope it somehow gets brought over to switch, whether it be with a companion app or some accessory with a second screen Edit: also happy birthday Wii U!!

[@Swampert_Tube]

Wii U's birthday isn't til the 18th

[@GameBlock_]

@@Swampert_Tube I know but at the end of the video he says to comment happy birthday Wii U

Thank you!

Don't do this, don't give me hope...

[@StevenJones851]

I'm already feeling conflicted

[@LiverSundae]

Why u sound like junko tho?

[@nictrident4392]

its never gonna happen for Nintendo bc you need a game pad and TV at the same time

[@StevenJones851]

@@nictrident4392 well that sucks

[@zackivanov9461]

Wow. Can’t believe 10 years have passed.. it really felt like yesterday when my siblings and I first got our Wii U with Nintendo land. So many many memories, I got super serious competitively with Smash4 practising for hours and going to tournaments, all of us playing 3D World, etc.. Happy Birthday Wii U

[@bekuti1034]

Nintendo‘s next console needs to have a game pad. It allowed for a lot of intuitiveness. It would be awesome to see like a Nintendo switch u. It would be a hybrid console with some games that only work on the tv with the gamepad.

[@TheChiptuner]

I literally played Nintendo Land on my Steam Deck last night and it ran like a dream… The Steam Deck really is just a portable Wii U gamepad

[@IceFox09]

Wait How Did You Play It On The Steam Deck?

that sounds great wish i could play Nintendo land

[@ilan_profile]

I like how more chill this video felt, glad people are looking back at the Wii U positively now, its one of my favorite consoles!!

[@StevenJones851]

yeah its underatted needs more love

[@NintendoHero]

Happy Birthday to the Wii U! I'd love to see Woolly World on Switch, as it really is 10,000 times better than Crafted World, it's not even close. Xenoblade X is probably inevitable, and Nintendo Land will sadly probably never happen. I've been replaying Nintendo Land a lot recently and it's actually incredible, that game is so good it's insane. Great video!

[@Gaminghj]

I just got a Wii U and it's amazing it saves me money on virtual console games and their consoles and physical copies plus Wii U games which I've found great I wish we got 2 more years of the eShops for 3DS and Wii U as the Wii got 13 years and the 3DS and Wii U didn't even get 11

[@TheSpeedfoever]

I would love to see Nintendoland, Xenoblade Chronicles X and the nes remix games on switch they really deserve it honestly and Happy birthday Wii U!

[@zachaboss]

We need NES Remix on Switch! I grew up with Remix Pack on the Wii U (which was just 1 and 2 combined, but still good) Something they could do as an alternative: include challenges in the NES Online app (maybe 8 per game plus two remixes)

[@afrohead_k1ng]

My only issue with yoshis crafted world was the lack of multiple save files. Usually when a game is singleplayer and multiplayer i have separate save files for both experiences and not being able to do that in crafted world is pretty scummy. Still thought it was a good game tho

[@lonelyiguess9401]

NINTENDOLAND!!! It’s my favorite game ever I think 😭I’ve actually came up with a plan how they could port it. You would have to buy an extra thing for it, or it’s a bundle with the game, and it would connect to the tv and the switch, displaying one thing on the switch and the other on the tv!! I’ve thought about this WAY more than I probably should’ve. 😅

[@Monke-gd2mr]

I hope Yoshi's Wolly World is ported. That game was my childhood and if it wasn't because the Wii U charger stopped working I would still play it.

[@barelyhere7200]

One game that I really want to be ported onto the switch is paper Mario color splash. I know that’s a controversial game but personally I really like it end it was a game made on the last year of a dying Consol. Color splash deserves a fair shot because well it may not be one of the best games ever made it is one of the most charming games ever made and I will stand by that

[@Awesome_Dawson_Films_Official]

#HappyBirthdayWiiU Here are some games that weren't mentioned that deserve to be on Switch. Splatoon (2015) Super Mario Maker (2015) Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival (2015) Mario Party 10 (2015) Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash (2015)

[@StevenVillman]

I 100% agree with you on the _Mario Party 10_ video game and even on the _Super Mario Maker_ [1] video game! [Even though we have a direct sequel to the latter video game, its online is not as good as the _Super Mario Maker_ [1] video game. Plus, us in having _Mario Party 10_ in being stuck on the Nintendo Wii U is such a social crime!]

[@StevenVillman]

_Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, Nintendo Land_ and _Mario Party 10_ have a decent chance to be - and *_really_* ought to be - ported/enhanced-ported over to the Nintendo Switch's *_successor_* video game system but not to the Nintendo Switch, *_itself_* - *_IF_* the successor to the Nintendo Switch has some kind of dual-screen functionality or a second screen device peripheral! Otherwise, I agree with you about pretty much all of the Nintendo Wii U video games that you've listed in this KZbin video on whether or not they should be ported/enhanced-ported over to the Nintendo Switch.

[@MorchoGames]

The Wii U was actually my favorite console of all time, I actually missed out on a few of those games (Xenoblade Chronicles X, Yoshi's Wooly World, Kirby and the Rainbow Curse etc.), but hopefully before the eshop shuts down I can grab hold of some of those games.

[@Switch2Life]

I think that the best thing that they can do is this. GameCube Nintendo switch online, where they release paper Mario the thousand year door, then super paper Mario:color Spash. A two in one game that serves as a remaster/remake/port of both the Wii and Wii U games. Also, Metroid prime trilogy HD Star Fox Zero DX Xenoblade chronicles X Kirby the rainbow curse deluxe, Maybe even a new doctor Mario game, with Dr. Luigi from the Wii U as DLC

[@Alegar-rt2kr]

Happy birthday Wii U... I remember that when I first heard of the Wii U, I imagined that it was a console that could move from a TV to another while playing, and if you think about it, it's kinda like how a Switch would work in a house with two docks!🤔😂 The Wii U is the home console I have the most nostalgia for, I played it with my friends and family for most of my life, and sometimes I still play Nintendo Land with them, having crazy fun all the time! The games on the system are awesome, and I am lucky to own many of the titles mentioned in the video, thinking that it's so sad that a lot of them will never be experienced properly by who didn't own the system and never will!🥺 This console is too underrated, and it's not fair that people hate it only for its poor sales and advertising, because in other aspects it's much better than the Switch, in particular we can say that the Wii U has an awesome personality, with its charming music, e-shop and menus! It's been ten years old now, and time passes so fast, but I think that it will be judged differently as years go by, just like happened to the GameCube, and I can only conlude saying... ...Happy birthday Wii U...

[@mudkip69420]

if i had to choose one wii u game to be ported to the switch, id pick woolly world. i love the different yoshis

[@BlueFire98]

Happy Birthday Wii U. Nintendo Land, Wii Party U, and Yoshi’s Woolly World deserves a second chance

[@RayofSunshineAR]

Some of the Wii u games I have on the 3DS I'm fine playing on there like woolly world and Mario maker 3ds but games such as Nintendo land, Mario party 10 and paper Mario color splash I would love to see on switch or a future console those are the last games I want to see leave the Wii u and then I'm good 👍

[@eld6274]

2:00 Stupid idea: multi-system for the minigames, meaning you could have the gamepad player on a separate switch, probably switch lite, and it would work with the same switch online account

[@raine6813]

i think what nintendo should do if they ever bring nintendo land to switch is cut out some of the games that dont work on it, but bring in new games in their place that really utilizes the switchs capabilities. i mean that was kind of the point of the point of nintendo land in the first place, to showcase what the wii u could do in a legitimately fun experience that no other console could do, so why not do the same thing with the switch?

[@RukoshiSensei]

I would love to have Splatoon 1 on the switch and have all three. Low key just want squid jump back.

[@beedlesnicesofa4189]

You could map the game pad like jack box and use your phone

[@stefanspelt3578]

1:00 THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING! 1:57 Yeah, i would KILL for an application like that, but that's unfortunately not possible... for now. It's an Apple thing since the same year when the Nintendo Switch launced. (iPhone interferes with Mac and vice versa) but then again, we DO have Joy con support on Apple devices now! So... DON'T GIVE UP HOPE YET!

[@MichaelTaylor-qp2xf]

I've had plenty of fun with friends playing Amiibo Festival and never had the chance to play Color Splash. I know those games don't have the best reputation, but I would definitely play them on the Switch.

[@Mmgxmer]

I really hope Mario super sluggers would be on switch it’s a Wii game but the motion controls would be great

[@Nintenblox]

You forgot Splatoon!

[@Sp3ctralI]

The Wii U failed depressingly, and I just hope more Wii U games can be brought back for people to enjoy, even when they can’t experience them with the authentic experience

[@grantsky205]

Great video man. I want this!

[@aislindyer4122]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WII U!!! The Wii U is Absolutely amazing. I really want nintendo land on switch. We will never forget it.

[@yagami255]

Bro u have no idea how much I want to play nintendo land, it’s unbelievable

[@icepug6311]

6:10 hey all, Nin10doland here. This game blows *throws yoshi's Crafted World in the toilet*

[@VAC2010]

This actually funny I was replaying my Wii U and I found Nintendo land I remembered all the good memories but then I was like how is this not on the Wii U then this video popped up and I was like is this a sign?

[@maricthehedgehog]

It's gonna be cool if they port Sonic Lost World to the Switch with more Features... especially the Momentum building instead of pressing R1 to run Even if they didn't i understand...we all have PC's

[@holdenrutmanis8759]

theres a dr mario yoshi... WE NEED THIS NOW

[@smashmaster4wiiu]

happy birthday wiiu. you can tell its one of my favorite consoles given its engraved in my name

[@articiceberg97]

I think that we could get a gamepad accessory that is just a screen that attaches to the joycons and connects to the switch acting like a gamepad

[@RetroCheats]

You forgot WindWaker & Twilight Princess HD versions.

[@Therealnugget69]

Happy Birthday Wiiu You Was My Childhood

[@danylohontar4693]

wow thanks for saying it even if I can't play my switch beacuse my brother always playing it

[@SuperCodywebb]

Let's not forget a non-Nintendo and Disney/Capcom game that should be ported: DuckTales Remastered.

[@SuperMarioBros.Gaming_Official]

🎉Happy birthday Wii U 🎉

[@LittleNinjaXYBA]

That will be really reassuring for me if they do that, I haven’t even touched the surface of the Wii-U online store, so that will be really cool if it happens. 🤞🏼

[@link3613]

The Wii U had some of the best Games ever. It's great to see some people still like it. (Even though it was a failure) So Happy Birthday Wii U!

[@Mr.T0212]

I never got why people never thought to make the game pad a accessory for the switch

[@Moon60559]

Happy Birthday Wii U! I grew up with this thing. I had Super Mario 3D World and Nintendo Land.

Rainbow curse was amzing

[@Republic-of-AgustinGTV]

[@gwenmichigander277]

I would love to see an improved version of Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival on Switch. (It’s actually one of my fav Wii U games!) They should add mini games and stuff, and make the board more customizable, (just think of the possibilities if we could terraform and fully customize it!) and update the visuals to match New Horizons, of course.

[@Blue_capped_Hylian]

Happy birthday Wii U!

[@angelgjorgjieski1301]

if they have donkey kong return and the 2018

[@enorma29]

if TTYD got a switch remake, then Color Splash is impossible. Maybe in 10 years or so.

[@isaiahdixon9224]

Give me a Switch port of Yoshi's Woolly World, & I'll be satisfied!

[@ghosttiee9212]

That’s why I still have my Wii U well my brother modded and never used it again so I made it better with retroarch for nes snes gba GBC ps1 Genesis. And nintendont which is a GameCube emulator so I can finally experience GameCube gsmes in handheld mode so I love my modded Wii U. I also have my switch oled with the Hori spltipad compacts I love it

[@skunkman9815]

They should rerelease all of games the mario and sonic at the Olympic games series in one game

[@rym99]

Wii U was my childhood. Also, I had fun with that tennis game, what makes it bad?

[@marchu-]

Maybe they could add Mario Party games like a group

[@allstarzombie_7]

Wow! Ten years huh. Well happy Wii U anniversary everyone!

[@zakuraiyadesu]

Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!

[@Switch2Life]

I wish they would port all Wii U games, no matter how bad they are. Not gonna happen, but a guy can dream

[@supertornado3190]

Happy birthday Wii U thanks for the video Switch Stop and I hope everyone has a AMAZING DAY and God Bless Happy Gaming

[@Lemonscop]

I think everyone would like to see meme runner or bigley’s revenge get ported to switch.

[@B0ssguy]

yoshi's woolly world is my favorite platformer game of all time

[@tendofan]

Happy birthday, Wii U! I hope Nintendo decides to do a sequel to Nintendo Land someday. Bring back some of the older games, add a bunch of new ones, expand on the theme park customization, add more reward types and game modes, online multiplayer…yeah, it would be fun.

[@Goldtendo25]

Nintendo land was my favorite game to play besides Mario 3D world on my switch. We had 3 games lol smash 3D world and Nintendo Land I love it so much It was really fun

[@ricardopratt5190]

Remember when it was 3D world time flies

[@Zonkeyplays]

Happy birthday Wii U! I’d love to see Nintendoland on switch it would be fun. What if they made an accessory that was like the Wii U game pad and you could get a Wii U emulator with it.

[@Mr.T0212]

They could just make and sell a game pad for switch as another controller

[@RosbifChaud]

I would prefer a SNES remix rather than a port of NES remix pack

[@jrobwoo688]

I want the Nintendo Remix pack to come to Switch

[@skunkman9815]

They probably will bring star fox zero or star fox guard

[@MajorPineapple]

the fact nintendo land or something similar isn’t on switch should be a crime

[@icepug6311]

STOP THIS IS MAKING ME FEEL OLD

[@franck4727]

I don't see half of these games coming to the switch. I never got a wii U but these game are designed especially for this console, you will loose a lot of the original experience if you port them on switch. It's like if you want to port DS/3DS games on switch, it will be hard for some of them. I recently play the legend of Zelda phantom hourglass and spirit tracks. Both games are designed around the functions of the 3DS (Touch screen, stylus, microphone, dual screen etc...), it would be complicated to port them on switch (via NSO) without loosing a lot of the original experience

[@super_c64]

Glad im not the only one who hated crafted world. :)

[@wadewebb4982]

Happy birthday, my favorite console.

[@benjaminu5417]

I feel like Nintendo should release a Mario and lugging rpg pack contains superstar saga inside story and dream team (I know they legal can’t but I don’t care)

I'd love to see Paper Mario Color Splash, but you need the gamepad to select cards. So I don't see it happening for the switch.

[@RayofSunshineAR]

They can literally and easily put the cards on the TV screen

[@CodeKirby]

NINTENDO LAND. It's literally the last good well known wii U game that hasnt been ported yet.
