Pikmin 3, Bayonetta 2, or Super Smash Bros?

Out of these 3 games, which one should i get?

I'm leaning more towards deciding between Pikmin 3 and Bayonetta 2, because I'm more of a single player gamer for Wii U, and wouldn't really do much online playing for Smash Bros. I included it because it's so well reviewed.

Bayonetta 2 if your more of an action / adventure type. Pikmin if strategy / platforming is your thing. If your not into multiplayer Smash shouldn't even be in the conversation imho.

Pikmin 3 is my favorite game on the WiiU. Did you play Pikmin 1 or 2?

Not a fan of the other two games in the poll.

Looks like Pikmin 3 is going for a pretty penny with used ones going for 78 and up on Amazon. Ugh!

I did not play Pikmin 1 or 2. I did notice that Pikkmin 3 appears to be scarcer and harder to find, so that kind of adds to the appeal. I'm leaning towards either Pikmin or Bayonetta. I may go Bayonetta just to have more variety because I already have platformers in
SM3D Land and Donkey Kong TF.

Pikmin isn't a platformer. It's a strategy game. Odd it's fetching a premium. Same thing happened to the GCN games but that was before digital was an option. Best Buy and Gamestop have it in stock. Plus there's always digital.

Man you guys are making a strong case for Pikmin 3. I had just decided on Bayonetta 2.

I went with Bayonetta, but I have a feeling I'll evenually add Pikmin at some point. Looks pretty darn good. Bayonetta is getting some "game of the year" hype currently.

Apparently Nintendo isn't keeping physical copies in circulation. Whatever's on store shelves has been there for a while. You'd think they would do another round with the demo they just put up and the animated shorts, but... I read on another forum about a guy finding a copy for $30 at K-Mart the other day, so there's hope! Otherwise, you'll probably have to go digital.
