A developer says Wii U could end up 'more popular' the Wii if its Gamepad is used to its full potential.
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.
After playing it I would agree.
I feel it's their best since N64.
But they need to communicate it better then they have.
wait until the e3, with all the games announced in the nintendo direct, the wii u will show off it's potential, mario 3d, 2 zelda games, smash bros, mario kart, the X GAME, bayonetta 2, retro's new game, and yoshi and myamoto's new ip, yeah, they will dominate the e3 and the sales will start to rise, and given time the wii u can win the next gen wars, just like the wii won the current gen wars. i mean sony and microsoft have nothing to offer software wise, that can even touch, nintendo's line up, so yes the wii u can be more popular than the wii.
So does every other next gen consoles. They all have the "potential" to do so.
agreed, especially if ports are so easy to port.
Possibly. But I feel like probably not. Time will tell I suppose.
