Shigeru Miyamoto has confirmed that Nintendo will showcase a Mario title for Wii U at E3 this year.
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.

It's funny, I haven't owned a Wii in years, and I've kind of forgotten about Nintendo (console wise).
Yet it's the only company that has games that could be system sellers for me if they made them... I would seriously buy a Wii U if they announced a new F-Zero, or a new Metroid. If I didn't have an Xbox, or a PS3, there wouldn't really be any games that would be system sellers for me like some of Nintendo's are.
I find that highly odd lol. In any case, I'm keeping a close eye on the Wii U, and the games that are announced. XD
all i want is true sequel to star fox 64. what i mean by that is keep fox in the damn arwing.
Anything like "New Super Mario Bros" or Galaxy is welcomed!! Can't wait :D
I am sure many ps3 and 360 fanboys will talk crap about mario graphics and compare it to gears and uncharted.
I hope this turns out fun!
^ I dont want anything like galaxy or new super mario
I want sprites
