GameDynamo - "People are already saying the Wii U is not a real console upgrade, that it brings nothing new to the table, that it seems way too uncomfortable to offer any kind of entertainment, and that it's made for kids. Well, I beg to differ, and let me kindly explain why."
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.
Time will tell.
The next generation will be interesting.
The key to success lies in exclusive gaming experiences, and groundbreaking innovation. The Nintendo Wii U entertainment system looks to sport both out of the box. Graphics have now reached a point where almost anything past last generation can be looked at as "good enough". People enjoy new ways to experience games, not just a fresh coat of paint. The next generation will be lead by innovation and tech. With that said, the Nintendo Wii U entertainment system is very much so a qualified leader.
Here is a video from a very smart youtuber explaining why.

Rated E For Everyone
Still not excited or buying it.
Im very curious about its online features.. I didnt see any cross game chat, UI, friend codes, or anything else of the sort.. Why wont they speak on these things?! Sure they say it has online play but that doesnt say much.. 3DS has online play too & look at that.. Damn u nintendo, these things are what makes ur topics stay on top.. Were looking for answers that we never find
I'm sure you'll see the other companies try and copy what Nintendo does.....again.
Fanboys make more excuses than a politician, I'm sure we'll hear them all when the Wii U is selling like hotcakes, it'll probably build up a 12+ million lead before Sony or Microsoft even launch their next consoles.
