Shigeru Miyamoto has unveiled some new information about Zelda II in an interview, and confirmed that the game will be coming to the Wii. We can probably expect a load of Wii - DS functionalities and maybe even a FPS-mode...
There are tons of great games that have been overlooked in the mass of more popular titles. And I don’t just mean underrated games, either. We’re talking about grossly underrated and underappreciated titles in otherwise well-regarded franchises.
FINALLY someone who acknowledges the greatness of Gremlins 2 NES!! One of my favorite movie tie-in games of all times. I have fond memories of both the game and the movie from when I was a kid. I was playing it again just a couple of months ago, and it still holds up very, very well!
I rarely see people mention Gremlins 2 when discussing great NES games and I love you for that!
*edit - Sunsoft really was a fantastic studio. Another favorite, underrated late NES game from them was Batman Return of the Joker. It was so much better than the SNES version too. Something about it died in the effort towards upgrading the graphics and music. The NES version felt darker, moodier.
Kabuki Quantum Fighters was a Nick Arcade classic. Never played it but the name has stuck with me to this day because of that show.
With Sunsoft you knew you were getting good graphics and music,
Personal honorable mentions to Faxanadu and Crystalis.
I dont know if its been underrated, but kung fu master was such a awesome game on the nes. Even if it couldnt compare with the arcade version in graphics, the gameplay was so amasing. Awesome sound effects too. Played it for countless hours....
Nearly 40 years after its release, the NES is still one of the most popular gaming consoles in the world! Here are our top NES games that have stood the test of time.
GameCrate: "Our first look at Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl reminded a lot of folks of another game: The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening on Switch from 2019. What other titles should Nintendo revive with this specific graphical update?"
Zelda Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages not being on that list is criminal. If they remade Link Awakening, they should definitely remake those, since they were using the same visuals on GBC (but with the later two being a little prettier). Plus imo, those 2 games are better than Link Awakening (and they take longer to beat).
Old.
Zelda II was released 20 years ago!
If another Zelda is indeed coming to the Wii that's great news. Too bad they didn't have much mention about it in the press conference which seemed to be a big screw you to the hardcore crowd. It's sad that we still haven't seen or heard about alot of the good games. Star Fox could be interesting with Wii, Pikmin 3 is something that really needs to come out, Another F-Zero would be awesome as well yet we have heard nothing.
Wii isnt powerful enough for a Zelda? And they let that kind of Fanboy statements stay on the front page. Please.. That kid wouldnt know a quality title if it bit him in the ass. You jumped to Sony 3 gens ago, not this one.
Cuz I felt Nintendo wasn't catering to my needs as a hardcore gamer... but I feel I must add as a long time Zelda/Nintendo fan,that this new Zelda should proly have some voice acting in it if I'm gonna consider it to be "next gen". I was very disappointed to have to read text still this far in the current console generation.
wind wanker 2 please.
