Leviathyn.com | Already suspected by many, Nintendo has confirmed today that there are no original Wii games in development. This is not particularly surprising, since many have felt that The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword was the last high-profile game to be released for the Wii.
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.
Nintendo practically gave up on wii after Zelda hell I feel the didn't even promote Last Story at all which was ashame cause it was a fitting swan song to the wii (I know nintendo didnt develop last story)
Here hope they support the wii U for a while and realese some new ips
Nintendo No Longer Developing Wii U games.... That is seriously what I thought I read at first lol
I'm going to sell my Wii
Wow this seems like a really bad move.
WiiU has only just come out, and not even released here in the UK, and there already writing off the Wii?
Far too soon if you ask me.
Especially with the price asked for the WiiU.
Couldn't they at least wait until after the Wii U had been out a while? It's been out like three days. Geez, at least fool people into thinking you're gonna support your old stuff for a while longer.
