I love that the uDraw is included.

And by "love" I mean "damn, what a tragically terrible idea that was for Ubi."

uDraw became obsolete the second the Etch-a-Sketch was invented.

Back when guitar hero and rock band were all the rage. My son would be guitar and I would be bass and I used a Gene Simmons inspired battle axe guitar controller when we played. Seemed only fitting if i was playing bass that i use one of the coolest bass guitars made. I still have it too.

Donkey Kong Jungle Beat is actually a really good platformer.

Mario Odyssey, Metroid Prime 4 and the next core Pokémon have all been announced for the console to universal fan appreciation and, being the greedy Nintendo fans we are, we’re looking beyond those games towards five more franchises we really want to see return on Nintendo’s new phenomenon.

Advance wars = YES YES YES YES YES
A port of Kid Icarus with PROPER controls
A port of Starfox from WiiU with PROPER controls
Animal Crossing
Oh and a port of Hyrule Warriors - Fantastic title
Oh and also port of all Zelda releases - maybe a nice box set with all of them

Starfox Wii U had proper controls. The problem wasn't the motion controls (which worked superb), it was the 2-screen gameplay. Asking the player to try and focus on two screens on a fast paced game was too much, and it proved to have a big learning curve that a lot of people didn't have the patience to overcome.

If they reworked that game so that you only need one screen, it would vastly improve. The motion controls themselves are just fine.

If Wargroove sells well, maybe Nintendo will take notice and bring back Advance Wars
