Line #8 YMMV/NintendoLand


1	* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Quite a bit of excellent remixes of familiar themes abound here, many of which were fully orchestrated:
2	** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Vm7HiIFo7A&playnext=1&list=PLifdg7N2S0V2qeMLBCICUzZtYPYmBMy3B&feature=results_video Gerudo Valley]]
3	** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAzXy2sswgM Ridley's theme]]
4	** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jno47jxXEjc Brinstar]]
5	** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tncdnoZv9fo Slide theme]]
6	** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JsID5WIsvSQ Saria's Song]]
7	** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQBvI22Eo40 Ganon's theme, both parts.]]
8	* BrokenBase:
9	** The ''entire'' game has divided the base, as some feels it cheapens Nintendo's [=IPs=], while others view it as a more fitting successor to ''VideoGame/WiiSports'' that keeps the Nintendo spirit, serves as a great newbie introduction to the various Nintendo franchises, and provides awesome remixes of Nintendo's classic themes.
10	** Some believe that Nintendo is observing the amount of times certain games are played to gauge interest on things like ''VideoGame/TheMysteriousMurasameCastle'', ''VideoGame/FZero'', and ''Franchise/{{Metroid}}''. Others still find the game absolutely amazing, as it integrates Nintendo [=IPs=] into a competitive (and actually quite challenging!) multiplayer experience without the aggravation of ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' and without just plain Miis doing ''Wii Sports'' minigames.
11	** No online play, you lack anyone suitable nearby to play with you, and some of the games have no bot support? Then three of the games are locked out for you and some of the games with zero bot support get really frickin' hard with nobody to help you! Of course some people don't mind the lack of features or other people to play with.
12	* GatewaySeries: Nintendo's [=IPs=] will definitely be exposed to casual gamers.
13	* HarsherInHindsight: The model of the Ship from ''VideoGame/Pikmin2'' has Monita remarking that it's probably best for everyone that it doesn't talk, a funny jab at the Ship's penchant for snarking. In ''VideoGame/Pikmin3'', [[spoiler:the Ship can never talk again because it has ceased functioning.]]
14	* HilariousInHindsight: The very idea of a Nintendo theme park has become this thanks to Ride/UniversalStudios creating Nintendo-themed attractions at their parks with Ride/SuperNintendoWorld.
15	* NightmareFuel: ''Luigi's Ghost Mansion'' is quite creepy for such an otherwise-lighthearted game. Especially [[https://youtu.be/Yd_knjA0WrM?t=1m4s when the Ghost catches someone]].
16	* SpiritualSuccessor: ''Mario Chase'' and ''Animal Crossing: Sweet Day'' are one to ''VideoGame/PacMan Vs.'', as they use that game's setup of allowing one player to see the entire playfield on a separate screen, while others are limited to corners of the TV screen and limited views.
17	* SurpriseDifficulty: Getting to the end of any of the single-player games is something of a challenge.
18	* ThatOneLevel:
19	** Donkey Kong's Crash Course. Much like the [[VideoGame/DonkeyKong game]] the minigame was based on, you will die many times for even the slightest provocations. You will be dodging through leaps of faiths and obstacles that can [[OneHitPointWonder make you explode in one hit.]]
20	** Level 15 of Pikmin Adventure, Bulborb Baths is the third time challenge, and is the penultimate stage in the main campaign. The catch? The stage barely gives you any time to complete through the stage, and most of the time you have to rely on luck and hope that you can beat the enemies fast enough.
21	** The extra levels of certain attractions. Notable offenders include:
22	*** Level 12 as the archer in single player in The Legend of Zelda: Battle Quest. You've got [[MarathonLevel a long level]], [[CheckPointStarvation no check points]], numerous Moblins that can border on [[TheHorde horde territory]], and worst yet the archer cannot dodge normal mook attacks, but [[TheComputerIsaCheatingBastard they can dodge or block your arrows]]. If you get surrounded, you're dead. Prepare to die many times to [[AntiFrustrationFeatures get extra hearts from your skulls]] just to be able to finally get through the level.
23	*** Level 14 as the archer again in Battle Quest's single player. In addition to everything included in Level 12, there are numerous obstacles to interfere with your archery like the castle ledges on the outside and with you walking close to them, you constantly have poor angles to fight off the enemy hordes. Also the wind will hinder your arrow trajectories while you're outside!
24	* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Not that the game has a story, but the idea of Miis at a Nintendo theme park, with attractions based on the company's various franchises, is rife with opportunities. One of these is to have characters such as Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus, etc. as meet and greet characters, ala ''VideoGame/KinectDisneylandAdventures''. The aforementioned characters do appear…in the form of pixel art and costumes. This [[https://cheezburger.com/6891926784/welcome-to-nintendo-land promotional art, commissioned by a UK gaming magazine,]] perfectly displays what fans were expecting.
25	* VindicatedByHistory: The game was heavily written off at launch for being just another TechDemoGame, with no end of fans treating it harshly for seemingly cheapening multiple Nintendo properties. These days, the game is fondly remembered by those who played it for being far more fun than it seemed, particularly the multiplayer game modes, and is generally considered one of the Wii U's most underrated titles. Even Monita, who was firmly TheScrappy at launch due to being incredibly boring, would become well-liked over time for her quirkier traits and unique character design.
