What… what?
How ridiculous that many video game, technology and even news journals like Forbes are reporting on this stupid story. It will come as little surprise that the culprit behind this obvious smear campaign was none other than tabloid blog (tablog?) Kotaku, who took an opinion from a Tweet and decided to spin it into national hate mongering."
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.

I'm totally furious over this flyer, FURIOUS....FEEL MY FURY!
I really don't see what the big deal was. Nintendo basically put out a flyer showcasing differences and reasons to buy the new console over the old one. That's really all there was to it. As usual everything was blown completely out of proportion.
WE DO NOT SEE ANYTHING WONG ITS ABOUT TIME THAT NINTENDO IS DOING SOMETHING RIGHT NOW WE NEED GOOD GAMES TO COME.
Next flyers should be:-
"Why Nintendo is NOT a next gen system".
"Why PS4 is better".
and finally, in my view....
"Why Princess is always in another castle"
END OF...
