The Wii U is the worst gaming console ever to have disgraced the shores of the gaming market, and it will be the downfall of Nintendo as a hardware manufacturer.
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.

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.
I agree 100% only hardcore casuals will defend this flaming turd.
Wow, this article was just made to start flame wars between narrow minded fanboys.
Also, is it just me or is this Wii U article the only thing on the ENTIRE linked website. Something smells fishy here?
LOL, I am so sick of people who have not even sat and spent HOURS with the console bashing something they know NOTHING about accept perhaps a demo at the local Gamstop. I have PS3 and Wii U also a great PC. Wii U, is a GREAT system, and some games I wish I had bought on it rather than my PS3, such as BOPS2, Madden13, Assassins Creed3. I don't care what this or any other person thinks about it. I like it, own it, and can compare it FAIRLY, to my other options to play. The internet is seamless something my PS3 is not, even Youtube (not the app) on Wii U is better. If you are a "Gamer" Please if you have not used the Wii U in depth, don't bad mouth it, as you have not even tried it. I forgot to say, the screen on the gamepad looks great! You can see that anywhere!
Is the battery life on the controller really a problem?
You can plug it in while playing. You can use it at about 30 feet away? You cannot walk back 30 feet after 3 or 4 hours of only playing on the gamepad to plug it in?
It's just a controller with a screen on it. What were honestly planning to do with it?
Edit: This loser created a website to bash a console? It's the only thing on the site.
Nintendo is hated on the most, confirmed.
