Prime 1 owns. I have no burning need to replay it and 8 gigs is an abomination for my garbage Internet but goddamn if I won't buy it for $10.
Take your Wii U to a friend's place with good internet. While you are there you can play some good multiplayer games like Mario 3-D World.

Nobody wants new games. Everyone wants reskins and HD remakes of their favorite games as a kid.
This seems true. I can't even name any games that came out after 2009.

But everyone feels like games today suck compared to games from back then. I'm inclined to agree, but I know it has to be nostalgia.
Yeah, everyone thinks that. I know some game developers, and their despair runs deep and cuts sharp.

I've heard some bad hyperbole about the Wiimote but pretty much all of it revolved around shoehorned-in motion controls (which is a legit complaint for a lot of games). When used as basically a lightgun it works fine and is very accurate if you're not a moron and happened to place your sensor bar in a weird spot or something.

Sorry but there is no way that "point Wiimote at screen, shoot mans" is worse than objectively the worst common FPS control scheme
It's mostly frustrating because the Gamecube Primes had arguably the beat controls of any console FPS. The Wiimote is definitely better than dual analog though.
