Due to "questionable religious content", the release of The Binding of Isaac by Super Meat Boy designer Edmund McMillen has been canceled on the Nintendo eShop.
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.
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.
Sad news, I wanted to play this on my 3DS...
Wow, really Nintendo? REALLY?? I have this game on Steam, and it's good fun for sure. Jeez, they've gone completely kiddy on us. No wonder they don't have much 3rd party support when they pull things like this. :\
Hopefully we get a Vita version of this, though it seems unlikely since a deal with MS blocked the PS3 version... I really wanted this one on a handheld.
I like how people hear one thing, so they automatically begin to lash out at Nintendo without even knowing their side of the story.
Kids.
God, human beings are so easily butthurt these days. It's pathetic.
