There ain’t no party like a Wii U party, or is there? In this episode of the Random Nintendo Podcast, we share our impressions of Wii Party U to see if it’s a party worth attending, plus visit the courtrooms of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies. The show kicks off with the latest sales numbers as we break down the beginning of the Wii U’s turnaround and analyze the next steps Nintendo is taking to make the console a hit. We then discuss the games that will drive these changes, including fresh details on Wii Sports Club and Super Mario 3D World, before turning our attention to all things 3DS with the announcement of a Pikachu detective game, the controversy surrounding Swapnote’s SpotPass functionality, and more.

We want to hear your thoughts, too. Whether you have your own impressions of Wii Party U or an opinion of Nintendo’s Wii U strategy, be sure to leave a comment below.
