Devil’s Third will only get even more expensive once it isn’t available digitally, so those who want to experience this train wreck need to get it on the eShop before the storefront closes down. Copies already go for $350 or more, but the eShop had remained an easy way to introduce people to the game until now. Its multiplayer mode shut down a year after launch, and now its single-player will be lost forever unless someone tracks down a ridiculously expensive physical copy.ĭevil’s Third is one of the rarest Wii U games as it had a fairly limited physical release in North America. It will forever be one of the weirdest games in Nintendo’s catalog and one that the company probably won’t ever acknowledge again. But Devil’s Third thinks it’s so cool with its tattooed, drum-playing Vin Diesel-looking protagonist that one can’t help but find it adorable.įirmly in so bad it’s good territory, it’s astounding that Nintendo chose to publish Devil’s Third. This is a bombastic and poorly constructed adventure with a dumb story and janky combat that never flows together smoothly.

It follows a buff assassin named Ivan as he tracks down members of a secret organization that he used to be a part of, but it’s not like the plot is good or anything. Still, it’s such a beautiful disaster that we recommend every Wii U owner plays it. Devil’s Thirdĭevil’s Third is not a good game it’s outright terrible. Even if that were to happen, the Wii U version of Affordable Space Adventures would likely still be the best way to play it.Īffordable Space Adventures is a digital-only title, meaning interested players need to buy it (and its DLC) soon. If Affordable Space Adventures were to be ported to another platform, it’d either have to lose those micromanaging systems or clunkily incorporate those ship management controls onto just one screen.

To complete levels and ensure that the spacecraft stays safe and stable, players micromanage various systems on the GamePad’s touchscreen. In Affordable Space Adventures, players get stranded on an alien planet and explore it in a small spacecraft.

Though this makes it one of the coolest games on the system, it also means this experience wouldn’t feel the same anywhere else. Affordable Space Adventures is an indie title with gameplay intrinsically tied to the GamePad. While the Wii U GamePad’s dual-screen functionality was an interesting concept, few games utilized it in remarkable ways.
