In order to compete with next-gen consoles from Sony and Microsoft, Nintendo will slash the Wii U price by $50, according to analyst.
If you were a 90s kid excited about Nintendo’s upcoming N64 console, you likely read something somewhere about the Nintendo 64 Disk Drive, also known as the 64DD or DD64.
Other nominees include games like SimCity & Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.
There are some good nominees in this list that are deserving to be inducted also, but I feel Metroid has had the most impact on the industry out of all of these. Look how Metroid influenced the evolution of the Castlevania games, and the "Metroidvania" subgenre of games have become a prevailing force in gaming today. Especially now, Metroidvanias are bigger than ever.
I can very much see Resident Evil being added later too, bc it really did popularize and define the survival horror genre. I would say that one is next in line.
If any Metroid game should get the honor it should be Super Metroid , it's perfection in my eyes . 30 years later and I still feel it's the most epic shit ever .
The GBA remake deserves it or Super Metroid, the original was a very sloppy and rushed game programmed in 3 months and it shows.
If you've never played the remake, it's absolutely a must play, fixes basically every flaw in the game. Check out ExoParadigmGamer's comparison video.
“Before even Kirby was born, HAL Laboratory released the super-cute puzzler Adventures of Lolo in 1989 and it has held up beautifully.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
I think it will, depending on the cost of Next Gen consoles and how well the WiiU sells before the announcement of the Next Gen consoles. While a price drop is expected, I don't think Nintendo will do the same thing, as they did with the 3DS.
I'll buy it when it's at $150. Maybe bundled with 2 or 3 games. Hopefully by then there will be a good Zelda game on it. ;)
so this means it won't receive a price cut until at least 2014
If Pachter says it, then just go by the exact opposite.
It's a possibly. The PS2 also got a 15% price drop in Japan and Europe within its first year of release to fight off the incoming GC and Xbox.
