gamasutra.com: Nintendo president Satoru Iwata discusses why skepticism surrounding the recently launched Wii U console won't be around for long.
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.
The Wii U won't be as content starved as the Wii was (3rd party wise).
This will end the nonsense I keep reading from faceless exporters claiming the Wii U is less powerful than the Xbox360.

Evidently, Owning all the platforms and enjoying everything is so taboo to N4G, it's all about Sony and Ms, but instead of saying, "Oh cool, the WiiU has some nice games coming out" they just call it crap, and wont be able to experience great games over some damn specs.
GROW UP PEOPLE.
