A brief history of the Wii U’s most forgotten feature
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Features, Wii U | 0 comments
Today, we’re talking about an incredibly niche feature that some of you may have never even heard about. It’s the Wii U’s most forgotten feature – and it isn’t Miiverse. Whereas Miiverse had lots of charm and character, the feature we’re talking about isn’t one we think anybody particularly misses. It’s Nintendo TVii, a rather obscure service that you might have noticed on your Wii U menu before it was eventually removed in 2015.

The best Animal Crossing games, ranked
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in 3DS, Features, Switch, Wii U | 0 comments
Compared to other easily-ranked Nintendo franchises, Animal Crossing is a bit different. At the time of writing, there are only a handful of main series Animal Crossing games and even fewer spin-offs. Most of them are incredibly high quality and well-received by fans, with only a small number of exceptions. There also aren’t quite as many games in the Animal Crossing series compared to some of Nintendo’s other juggernauts – these games take a long time to develop, and we suspect it’ll be a while before we see a new Animal Crossing game on Nintendo Switch 2.
In the meantime, we’ve made our own subjective list of the best Animal Crossing games, ranked from worst to best. Do note that we’re not including Animal Crossing Plaza (which really had very little to it) or Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp; the former is defunct and we’re focused more on Nintendo platform games for this ranking. Here’s what we came up with.
