Any weird/controversial opinions? I'll start. Before the remake, the best version of Resident Evil 4 was the Wii version. The Wiimote controls old Resi's tank controls better than any other controller at the time. The PC version had a bunch of little bugs and detractors that the Wii version just doesn't have.

I'll extend this by saying that the Wiimote is actually pretty damn good for shooters, and particularly good for accessibility. Not having to cramp up my hands to press buttons is awesome for having arthritis. Aiming with the Wiimote and moving with the nunchuck just feel really natural, you barely have to move your fingers for anything.

New Super Mario Bros U is the best 2D mario game. Even more so if it is including Luigi U (which some shipped with)

People dismiss it because it's part of the NSMB series, but it's basically Super Super Mario World.

It's great, but as the 4th in the "New"-series it didn't really feel fresh, and it soon got overshadowed by the Maker games.

In no way was nsmbu overshadowed by mario maker. The quality of levels is not there in those games. Either kaizo or very dumb are the two options of mario maker levels

It was the first one of the four that was actually challenging, so that’s a big deal.

I used to really like it, but after Mario Maker, I noticed the controls in NSMBU feel different, and I couldn’t go back to it.
