New Classics, Revisited

Last year I made a post of what I believed at the time to be the future classic games; ones that would be played years from now, as today's classics are. Well, after a bit of time, a couple of those have been a bit left behind, and so far I am 2/5 (still "classic" are Wii Sports and Resident Evil 4). Not one to give up, I am bringing this topic up to speed with more current events and better information. With that in mind, here are some more future classics.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii - Now, somebody out there might be thinking (is anyone even reading this?), what about Super Mario Galaxy? That game was a masterpiece! Well, yes, it was, and I'm sure you loved it, but whoever had that thought is a gamer. Gamers do love them some Galaxy, to be sure, but it seems to be gamers exclusively that love this game. Show me anyone with two hands, though, and I'll show you somebody who loves them some Super Mario Bros. That's the indefatigable appeal of New Super Mario Bros. Wii. So why not both, you ask (who are you, anyway?)? Well, I have some news for you.

Mario Kart Wii - Last Mario game, I swear, but this is already the best-selling racer of any kind ever, and still going (sales people say, "Look at those legs" for games that just keep selling, which is just south of 21 million as of this post). The only way to unseat this one is to make a better Mario Kart.

Shaq Fu - Wait, or was it Superman 64

Actually, after looking at all the other releases lately, I can't think of much. Classics certainly are a rare gem, though, so perhaps this is for the better.

Now, back to playing me some Waterworld
