Stop Killing Games:

The consumer movement to stop game publishers from intentionally destroying older games with kill switches.

The goal is to reach 1 million signatures in the EU so that the european parliament will respond to the initiative that then leads to regulation that requires end-of-life plans for games to stay playable.

The Wii U is nice too, though in my mind it's mostly just a slightly upgraded Wii with an HDMI connection, as it never really got many good titles made for it outside of the Zelda remasters/BOTW. I think it does have access to a few more emulators if modded though.

I believe so. Yeah there’s a reasonable amount of accuracy in that comment and I guess it’s partly why it never took off the way the first one did.

We have two Wii and two Wii U here, both are modded, my son does all that. My daughter has a third, our old original, that’s modded as well.

Some things Nintendo do and did so well that the others struggle with. The kind of fun you’re having with the balance bard and Wii Fit echoes that. After all this time they still work brilliantly.
