2. Shantae And The Pirate's Curse - Wii U

Super Smas Bros Rating
Capcom

Rating: 86/100

Uber-Japanese platformer, Shantae And The Pirate's Curse on Wii U turned out to be one of the best platformers of the year.

Boasting challenging, varied and most of all entertaining gameplay, it's one that rewarded commitment and skill in even the hardiest of players.
