      I'm pretty sure Nintendo referenced him on the Mario Movie/SMB Plumbing webpage, it may be a coincidence but there's a testimonial there by "Pipe_Dreamz" that says "amazing looking water courtesy of the brothers"

    I was largely out of gaming from ~2009-2015. But in 2017, after the Switch was released, I looked for a used WiiU and bought the system and a good number of games from a guy for a good deal. I cannot tell you how much fun I had for like a year. I knew the system was technically a "bust", and I can't comment on what it was like in the years that the WiiU was "the" Nintendo, but after the fact, I can tell you that it's great. Donkey Kong, New Super Mario Bros., Zelda, Mario Maker, Pikmin, Mario Kart, Mario 3D World, and some others I'm forgetting. Anyway, yeah, I know it's a long-gone console and a dark stain in Nintendo history, but...I partially credit it with getting me back into gaming.

    1:12:00 I'm honestly so happy that, starting with 3D World, they switched to every OTHER year, and diversified the types of games so it wasn't just constant "same-y" mainline Mario. From 2013 to 2023 we got a 2D-ish 3D Mario, a 3D-ish 3D Mario, a very short 3D Mario inside of a re-release, two Mario Makers, and a completely new 2D Mario with a brand-new style. That's SO much better than TWO Galaxies, FOUR New Soups, and a "3D" game that felt like New Soup and Galaxy got married in the most mediocre way possible.

      I'll say that the Switch era has made me miss the 3DS/WiiU era, since both consoles had a lot of great legacy content via the Virtual Console, especially compared to what we have now.

      @joelressler5619 7 месяцев назад +4

      I really take issue with the collective wisdom of the internet when it comes to failed video game consoles. It turns into an echo chamber of "OMG, it was crap, LOL!" In the early 90s, I bought what would become one of the most infamous failed consoles ever... The Atari Jaguar. I'm sure you've seen it on RUclips described as "Everything about the Jaguar totally SUCKED without exception!" I won't lie, it was a disappointment and didn't live up to Atari's "64-bits of power" hype. But it wasn't all bad. There were a bunch of games on that console I genuinely enjoyed. And for a brief moment (93-94, before PS1 and Saturn), some of the games had impressive graphics. But the internet likes to focus on the most embarrassing games, ignores the better ones, and everyone has a good laugh, even though a lot of them have no firsthand knowledge of what they're laughing at.

    The Wii U didn’t make sense for all the reasons that it made sense. The Wii U was essentially what the Wii was. It was backwards compatible and supported the use of its prior systems controller. It was underpowered yet had great games that people could get behind. The online got the job done and was never really anything better than good enough. The Wii succeeded but the problem was, it didn’t finish strong. Since the Wii didn’t finish strong and the Wii U was everything the Wii was but better*, that means that it would perform the same way that the Wii did at the end of its lifespan causing it to fail hard

    I personally loved ZombiU, the concept of picking a lock, physically looking down leaving you vulnerable just immersed me so much, then the multiplayer, it was the standard Wii U multiplayer, but the multiple gamemodes added in made it more fun as well as just being able to spawn zombies in to me was great execution, I feel that game utilized the gamepad to the perfect degree, it felt like how Nintendo intended the gamepad to be used for singleplayer games.
