Despite enjoying the Pokémon anime series which aired on Sky One, I hadn’t bothered with Red and Blue, though I had tried an emulated fan-translation of Pokémon Green. But there was something about having a Pikachu follow your character’s sprite - something not done in many RPGs even on full consoles. Something rarely done to this day."
A swan song is a game that sends off an aging console out to pasture. Not all are great, but these 10 made their console owners proud.
Beautiful article. BOTW was a perfect swan song for the Wii U. Despite its flaws, I loved that damn thing!

I originally tried out Final Fantasy IX cuz I was interested in swan song titles after beating God of War 2
BOTW is my personal fav here. Seriously such a fantastic game. I played it on Switch but form what I've read, the Wii U version is totally fine!
