WiiWareWave had a chance on an exclusive interview with Sabarasa and discuss things regarding Horizon Riders, the eShop. and other interesting info.
After being benched for 20 years, and returning only to be forsaken again despite being a splendid game, it's time Kid Icarus gets salvation.
The Nintendo Switch is potentially nearing its lifespan, and several Wii U games haven't found their way over as ports yet.
I think it's better to leave games like AC: Amiibo Festival and Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash forgotten on the Wii U. Best case, they are mediocre games; worse case, they are very bad. It was a dark time for the Wii U, and the first only exists to sell Amiibo cards, whereas the second was put together in a couple of months with a shoestring budget, and it shows.
The rest of the list does have some really cool games, though. I would love to see a remake of Star Fox Zero with decent controls, and Xenoblade X doesn't require that much modification to work.
Same as Paper Mario color splash. One of the best wiiu games and getting even better with dual screen. Same reason why i prefer Splatoon 1
This article leaves out Nintendo's most controversial game to date devils Third.
I personally found the cover system really fun in that one compared to at the time most fps games completely lacking one.
Kirby is always ignored or forgotten by people, so good to see it mentioned here.
Play Kirby Canvas Curse on DS, and then play Rainbow Curse on Wii U, they're really fun and unique 'platformers' without any actual jumping.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
its a shame that they had to cancel their game protocol, but releasing that late into wiiware lifespan would have been a bad move.
Good to hear they're feeling positive about the eShop after their experiences with the Wii Shop... The Wii Shop has been pretty dead for some time now. Sure, there is still the occasional release but not much and Nintendo does *nothing* to advertise them.
It makes me question the wisdom of releasing Retro City Rampage onto Wiiware. I intend on buying it but how many other people with Wii's even know it exists on that platform? Nintendo needs a way of advertising/downloading Wii games via the Wii U eShop because it's infinitely more presentable and more intuitive than the Wii offering.
