We’ve got the poll ready and waiting for you below. All you need is an idea of which online games for Wii U and 3DS you’d want to play this coming Sunday at 4PM ET. We’ll take a look at the votes and let you know which games we’ll be playing in time for you to prepare. Friends will be added on Sunday in the IRC chat.

Please don’t fill this out unless you plan on playing this weekend. There will be a new poll each week, so you can fill out a future one if/when you plan on participating.

Ripstone Games has announced two titles for Wii U thus far: Knytt Underground and Pure Chess. The company also recently said that further support is planned.

Ripstone isn’t ready to reveal any new games just yet, but we were told that six games are planned for the Wii U in total.

Regarding future support for the eShop, creative director Phil Gaskell said the following in an interview that will be published on the site in just a couple of days:

“Yes we’ll be continuing to support Nintendo and the eShop. We’ve announced that the visually stunning Pure Chess is making its way over to both Wii U and 3DS, both of which look awesome and feature a great cross-platform multiplayer feature. We’re also working on a number of other games with developers that will appear on eShop but we’re not quite ready to show them off yet. Right now if we include the titles we’ve announced we have plans to bring 6 games to Wii U.”
