The Wii U is hands down the ultimate machine for video game lovers. It channels in it's hardware a love for arcades, in its features a love for community and in its software a love for design. Nintendo Land serves, even in retrospect of every other game that came out in the console, as the shinning beacon of possibilities this magic machine held. Playing Nintendo Land is exploring a buffet of the most hands on, unique, arcade-like experiences any videogame hardware can offer in the confort of your own home. While Nintendo's 'innovation for innovation's sake' proved unsatisfactory to the unwashed masses it stands tall in the pantheon of game design dogmas with this console and this game. Perhaps for the last time.
