Putting The Cave at #2 is just plain reader hostile. It's a lousy port of a mediocre game.

I don't see why someone would call the Wii U version a lousy port, but I agree, it's a mediocre game. Ron Gilbert - one of my most favorite game designers of old - gets favorable reviews too easily these days imo.

A juddery framerate in a game with stylized graphics and a fixed camera, and a failure to do anything interesting with the gamepad make it a lousy port. I am assuming that the framerate is stable on other platforms, but I guess they all suck for all I know.

Also clicked on page 2 to see the WiiWare games and it's a terrible selection of WiiWare titles.

My biggest gripe is the fact that it doesn't support off-TV play.  How hard could that have been to implement?  I enjoyed the demo and might have considered buying the game, but without that feature I might as well buy it in a Steam sale for a couple bucks.
