The Wonderful 101 (ザ・ワンダフル・ワン・オー・ワン Za Wandafuru Wan Ō Wan) is a “mass-hero action” video game developed by Platinum Games and published by Nintendo exclusively for the Wii U. The game was directed by Hideki Kamiya and produced by Atsushi Inaba, who worked on the Viewtiful Joe series and Ōkami together. It was initially set to release during the Wii U's launch window (which lasted from the console's launch until the end of March 2013) in North America and Japan, but instead was released at the end of August 2013 in all territories except North America, where it was released on September 15.

Wiki blurb:
Quote:
Pikmin 3 (ピクミン3 Pikumin Surī) is a real-time strategy video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Wii U video game console. It is the sequel to Pikmin 2 (2004) and was first released in Japan on July 13, 2013 and then in all other regions the following month. Game designer Shigeru Miyamoto first announced Pikmin 3 on July 16, 2008 as a game for the Wii console, later stating at E3 2011 that its development had transitioned to Wii U. Pikmin 3 retains the gameplay elements introduced in previous Pikmin games and adds new features, including new playable characters and Pikmin types, Off-TV Play, and downloadable content.
In the single-player campaign, the player controls three alien captains who explore the surface of a planet known as "PNF-404" in search of cultivable fruit seeds to save their home planet, Koppai, from famine. They meet and befriend the Pikmin creatures, who assist them.
