With the Wii U's release looming on the horizon, here is a complete run through of all the information we know about the console as we get ready for its launch.
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.
Cultured Vultures: True Nintendo fanatics may know some of these, but we doubt that everyone knows all of these facts about the NES.
I bought always awakening and it's sequel off Amazon for ps4 I didn't know it was released for nes for retro people lol.
Let me get this straight. We know absolutely NOTHING. I love speculation too...but really? Jeez...
I gotcha. I mean of course we don't know exact pricing, specs (although I'll get an exclusive look at the Wii U this weekend in Denver) and launch date; however it's almost certain the system will be between $300-$400 range. I'm betting $300.
The release date is going to be in November. As to specifically when, who knows, but it's all relative as long as it's in November. Omg if it releases on Black Friday? Holy sh!t! That is inviting open war into Best Buys everywhere lol. I will be nowhere near that store on Black Friday.
Specs seem to be universally assumed already. Most people think it'll be just past what the capabilities of Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 currently are, which is probably not far off either way.
Yeah I attended the E3 press briefing and it was fun to watch, although I must admit I was a bit disappointed with their overall performance. More demos, actual funny people, and more gameplay would have been nice. It was still great to attend though.
What we all assume about the system is not far off from what we will probably get, so that's why I guess it's not impossible to say some of the things that are said.
Yeah ! I am pumped also NOT ! 300 bucks for a processing power current consoles could do 5+ years ago... no thanks !
I can't wait personally but I like playing games not complaining about specs
