"I don’t want to rock the boat but I think Nintendo should stay in the console business, what’s more I don’t think they should abandon the WiiU either, and unlike most of the dross floating around the net these days I’m going to back up my claims with facts and figures."
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.
we need to see new game announcements, at least some teasers.
I never understood why people would want Nintendo or any other brand to exit the market in the first place...
this is a great and fair article.read it before you judge.
I hope it is.
Although the Wii U most likely wont be as successful as Wii, doesn't mean they should abandon it. It's got a good line-up of games for next year and hopefully the following ones as well. I think they'll make it through until the next console is announced.
Such delusional individuals.
