Busted out the Wii U over the weekend, for the first time in years.
It feels strange going back to it now, as the whole world of Nintendo and my own outlook on gaming has changed so much since those days.
I wouldn't say I miss this era, but it is interesting to look at it through the more optimistic perspective I have gained in the years since rather than the pessimistic views I had at the time. As frustrating as it was to be a Wii U gamer a lot of the time, some of the experiences it delivered were terrific.

And holy moly I forgot how gorgeous Yoshi's Woolly World is, absolutely stunning even all these years later.
