Discounting all the niche consoles like the 3DO, CD-i, Bandai thingy, Pippin, Channel F and whatever else over the generations, it still isn't, though of the Big 5 (Nintendo, PlayStation, XBox, SEGA and Atari) I'd say it is giving everything a run for their money.
I have only played the 2600, which is pretty awesome and for it's time relatively way better than WiiU will ever be, but I'm sure the 5200, 7800 and Jaguar are worse than WiiU. SEGA Saturn maybe, haven't played that one either and don't really know what it has to offer.
All XBoxes, all PlayStations, the Dreamcast and the Mega Drive however are definitely better than WiiU. Some of them with ease.
Of Nintendo consoles themselves, I'd say it's also still firmly in last place. Previously, GameCube was easily my least favorite, with disappointing entries in the main IP's. Mario Sunshine, Double Dash, Wind Waker, all my least favorites in their series (for Mario and WW in the 3D series at least). While WiiU's Mario 3D World and Mario Kart 8 are better, GameCube just had more interesting new things and more things in general. Also, while 3D World is better as a game, Sunshine was still a bigger deal because it was a 'true 3D Mario' adventure. As of now all this, keeps GameCube above WiiU for me. That console is also realistically the only one WiiU can still hope to beat, because Zelda U would need to be the best game ever made (and remain exclusive otherwise if's impact diminishes) for it to even hope to beat Wii, SNES, NES and definitely N64.
I do agree with Soundwave though that if Zelda U is better than Wind Waker, that could still tip the scales in it's favor. And Zelda U being better than Wind Waker is, to me, pretty likely. |
but ww came with masterquest, even if you dont like ww, how can you not like masterquest?

Of course, Master Quest is cool. Master Quest is Ocarina of Time though which is a win for the N64. Ports lose most if not all their impact to me on a newer console, because said game is old already and doesn't do anything to give it's system it's own image. It, and the Collector's Disc didn't really do much for my appreciation of the GameCube, like Wind Waker HD didn't for WiiU.
I do like Wind Waker though, just not as much as the other 3D games and beating the weakest shouldn't be too hard to achieve for Zelda U.
