10 Amazing Video Games That Justify The Wii U's Existence
4. The Wonderful 101
Though the Wii U is home to plenty of amazing entries in the series of some of Nintendo's biggest franchises, it's also populated by other great games, too: stranger, more intricate experiences.
The Wonderful 101 is one such example. Directed by the legendary Hideki Kamiya, The Wonderful 101 is an action-adventure game with elements of real-time strategy. In it, players control a horde of superheroes who fight by transforming into various massive objects, like swords, guns and a giant fist.
The player commands these heroes by drawing whatever formation they choose on the gamepad, making for a fluid and satisfying transformation mechanic. One of the great things about The Wonderful 101 is its difficulty and intricacy: getting the highest rank on each level is an insane challenge, something that requires a huge amount of skill and determination.
