I believe that's the Wii Mini.

There's the red and black Wii Mini, but also an earlier revision that's the same as the original but with the gamecube ports removed and the "Wii" logo rotated called the "Wii Family Edition"

Fingers crossed, but I'll probably have to go pick it up myself since I'm rarely not at work when deliveries are being made.

It is a god drat crime that Guantlet Legends is not on the Switch or any modern format at all.

Didn’t realize that the Wii classic controller had analog triggers until a few months ago, just thought they were extra squishy digital ones

It also has the Gamecube triggers' digital click and I'm pretty sure absolutely nothing actually uses it because the remote + controller combo doesn't work for Gamecube games and it was ditched for the pro classic pad.

I’m curious of any QoL stuff. Like didn’t the Links Awakening remake have a more modern way to use your items? Rather than pausing the game and assigning equipment to one of two buttons there was a more modern approach? (I did not play the game)

It does. There's a dedicated shield button and you can assign two items to face buttons. Your sword is always available too.

However I think the GBA two button item system worked better because you could discover cool item combos and it made the puzzles a bit harder to solve.

One of my favorite things with the WiiU was the rounded edges on the discs. Gave them a unique feel and I wish all discs were like that.

There is only one QoL thing I could even think I could possibly want them to add, and that's making the Frog Coin in the Mushroom Kingdom Castle not permanently missable.

Otherwise what could they possibly improve?

I took the octopath less travelered,

And it made one-eighth the difference.
That frog coin is such a brilliant "gently caress you", as it's the first hidden chest you'll encounter, you get a very short window to access it, you'll likely never even know it exists without a guide, and IIRC it's the only missable in the entire game.

Whoever placed that chest there went out of their way to be a dick, and in a way I admire that.

I've got some mario edition 3ds in its original box kicking around somewhere. I purchased it for a friend but turns out he didn't need it after all so I just kept it. It's a nice fallback if my 3ds ever just dies entirely

Great question question, which is why I want to know more about the percentage meter that's present in battles. How else has Nintendo changed the remake from the original?
