10 Released (And Upcoming) Games You Should Buy For The Wii U

6. LEGO City Undercover

The Wii U did not get Grand Theft Auto V but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy a great sandbox game that lets you do pretty much anything short of murder. Released exclusively on Wii U, Lego City: Undercover follows the adventures of undercover cop Chase McCain, a master of disguise. Developed by TT Games, LCU borrows heavily from the Grand Theft Auto formula. You don't just mod or upgrade a vehicle, you take it apart and rebuild it using Lego blocks. The dynamic of this looks quite hilarious at times and the story is very well constructed with some of the funniest material I've seen in a game. There are also more than 100 vehicles you can use to accomplish your missions or just to collect. The GamePad can be utilized to scan for hidden clues, much like the similar feature in the Wii U's Batman: Arkham City: Armored Edition.
