It’s been a long, long six years for the Wii. The console has enjoyed its ups and downs, its ridicule and its praise, its successes and its failures; and as we here at NintendoEverything say one last, long goodbye to the console that brought all of us so much fun, we do our best to remember both the good times and the bad. Over the past couple of days we brought you top ten lists for everything from best games to biggest disappointments, most memorable channels to the greatest peripherals– but all of that? Those were YOUR guys’ opinions.
The site staff here at NintendoEverything may have a much different take on everything, so as the last piece to my three-piece suit of an article, I present to all of you the number one answers for each category from all five site contributors, so you can finally decide which member of the site is the coolest!

There’s been a lot of talk about the possibility of system-wide accomplishments on Wii U. In the past, some developers have hinted that Nintendo may have implemented such functionality, but we finally have a confirmation that no such feature is in place.
5th Cell CEO Jeremiah Slaczka confirmed that Wii U games will only include accomplishments if the developers choose to add in the feature. Achievements aren’t mandatory for any title on the system.
According to Slaczka:
“There are no Wii U accomplishments that are system wide. They are up to the developers to include or not include. Scribblenauts Unlimited loosely has them in the form of ‘Global Starite Shards’ which is like a giant checklist of global things to spawn and do in the game that aren’t area specific.”
Nintendo Power has released a public preview of this month’s magazine. Titles featured include Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse (with first screenshots and details), New Super Mario Bros. U, Nintendo Land, and Paper Mario: Sticker Star.
The issue arrives on newsstands on November 13 and has already started to reach subscribers.
