I used to be good at videogames.
Wii U
Almost like they jumped to the Switch model a generation too early. It looks like what a failed Switch prototype would be with the handheld aspect. The problem was you had to be in the same room to use the Gamepad anyway. The controllers were a mess. There was the pad, an okay pro controller, and then Wii remotes? Too many moving parts and not a lot of games (though the ones they had were very good). Nintendo was rediscovering itself between the wildly successful motion control era of the Wii and what would become the dual purpose Switch. The one thing the U had going for it was the virtual console (and backward compatibility was nice)

Nintendo (NES)
Whether you are PS Gang, Xbox Gang, or Switch gang, we owe everything to this little box. It's hard to believe we're approaching 40 years of the Nintendo home console era, but here we are. While the games themselves may seem primitive by today's standards, there are plenty of classics worth revisiting or discovering for the first time. If you really want to feel old, the NES launch was closer to the release of such games as Super Mario Sunshine and Wind Waker than we are to those games today.
