Nintendo
Nintendo is that gaming company that is loved by nearly everyone but rarely seems to be brought up when discussing the big consoles. It may have been due to the Wii and how rarely people seem to think back to it. The Wii U had a slightly confusing launch in 2012 with many unsure of whether it was a peripheral or a new console. They still stuck in there and in 2014 they came out swinging.
It honestly seemed as if they could do no wrong last year, they put out hit after hit as they finally started releasing the games their fans had been waiting for. Mario Kart 8, Bayonetta 2, Hyrule Warriors, Super Smash Bros., Fantasy Life and so many others created an endless fountain of fun. There were a lot of naysayers who had already begun to count Nintendo out this generation but they managed to turn all of those opinions around.
To further ingrain into everyone’s mind the fact of their greatness they gave small glimpses into some of their future titles. Images of the upcoming Legend of Zelda game has mouths watering in anticipation, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Nintendo has finally found their flow for this latest generation of gaming and that makes them worth watching as they move towards domination once again.
