Pikmin 3 (some may say it's also superseded by Deluxe, but I made this thread that outlines how the Wii U version has some subtle downgrades to its Challenge Mode).Mario Kart 8 (obviously superseded by Deluxe, but the original MK8 does have an "exclusive" battle mode that may make it overall worth purchasing to someone ¯\_(ツ)_/¯).Fast Racing Neo (Fast RMX includes all the tracks, but if you want another multiplayer racer on your Wii U).ZaciSa's Last Stand (5-player co-op multiplayer).X-Type Plus (Multiple modes, video replays) (.Delisted).Scram Kitty and His Buddy on Rails (Dual screen gameplay).Runbow (9-player and "Colormaster" mode is exclusive to Wii U).Nano Assault Neo (2-player individual screen on Gamepad).Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water (Digital only in NA, exclusive costumes not on Switch).Chompy Chomp Chomp Party (9-player mode is exclusive to Wii U).Art of Balance (5-player mode is exclusive to Wii U, and the touch screen is especially useful).3Souls (Uses touch screen, mic, gyro, camera).Wii U eShop games with exclusive features Someone linked me this resource, will need to filter through it Here's a useful thread about Wii U external hard drives: ’s-my-most-cost-effective-solution-for-wii-u-external-storage-in-2019.159567/ DSiWare is also limited by the meagre internal storage of the 3DS. You may be able to get around this if you're ok swapping SD cards/hard drives. Keep in mind if you want to binge, without homebrew workarounds both Wii U and 3DS have a 300 installed app limit, regardless of storage space. Updates should still be available, but free software will need to be "redeemed" before then. Games can be re-downloaded, for now, indefinitely. There's a few important dates on that page, but the most important thing to know is that you can still use cash added to your Nintendo Account wallet via your Nintendo Switch until the final cut-off, if you've connected your Wii U/3DS era "Nintendo Network" account to it. The Wii U and 3DS eShop has been announced to be closing for purchases in late March 2023. It'll be a bit curated for quality, but I have a bias for Nintendo published content and local multiplayer games and then I want to link to recommendations/testimonials to justify smaller, less notable games on the list. Preface: There's a few recommendation threads popping up, but I kind of want to curate a more formal list/resource, for exclusive stuff specifically.
