Nintendo Land was an awesome game and one of like three games that actually used the gamepad well. But the difference in quality between the best and worst Nintendo Land games is pretty massive so I'm going to do a tier list. Does anyone care? No. But I'm doing it anyway.

Luigi's Ghost Mansion: By far the best game in Nintendo Land, so much so I genuinely think they should try to bring this back in some kind of online multiplayer for the next Luigi's Mansion (however many years off that is). Both trying to find the ghost or screwing with other players as the ghost is super fun, and thankfully both control really well. While a couple of maps aren't super well balanced (like the rooftop one with a bunch of Monitas), there is a good variety of maps to play with so it isn't really a problem. You'll know upfront what maps are easier for the ghosts and which maps are easier for the hunters, and it still usually comes down to team coordination and stealth on the ghost's end rather than what map you're playing on. This game is so much fun man. If you have a Wii U and want to try out Nintendo Land with some buddies, I recommend trying this game first.
Pikmin Adventure: As someone who had never played a Pikmin game prior to playing Nintendo Land, I can tell you this game is absolutely amazing. There are so many levels, so many creative bosses, throwing around pikmin to break stuff is fun, leveling up as the pikmin is great, there's a few puzzles to mix things up. Idk man this game is just so much fun to play with friends, and there's so much content it feels like the Pikmin game we should've gotten on the 3DS instead of Hey Pikmin! You should definitely check this one out if you haven't already.
Mario Chase: Other than Luigi's Ghost Mansion, this was the one game I always played with my friends, and that's because this game is awesome. The concept is so simple. The toads try to catch Mario and Mario tries to not get caught. And yet, somehow, this game is pretty addictive. Something about trying to back Mario into a corner, or trying to juke out the toads by hiding on different parts of the map is super fun. It gets even more hectic with the other maps (the mud one is kind of lame but the slide one is legit). And seeing the replay at the end, where the toad players get to find out where Mario was the whole time, is sort of the icing on the cake. My only complaint is that controlling the toads with a wii mote dpad feels more clunky than contro

I've recently downloaded cemu as well as Nintendo Land, but when I play Pikmin Adventure and Luigi's Mansion, the graphics are a bit wonky. Does anyone know a way to fix this? (I have cemu version 1.19.2 if that helps at all, also I can't use any other versions because they don't allow the use of the mii channel)

So, I bet all of you have at least heard of the Universal theme parks a lot in your life, and many of you have visited at least one of the parks. I've been to the Island of Adventure in Florida twice: Once when I was a little kid, and once this year to celebrate my birthday. One thing you will know a lot about Universal as members of a subreddit on a Nintendo franchise is that they have the theme park rights to the majority of Nintendo's franchises, most notably Mario which already has its own dedicated land in Universal Studios Japan and is also going to come to a new theme park that's going to open in Orlando alongside the other 2 parks, water park, hotels, and mall(?). The Mario land looks absolutely gorgeous, and hey, it features Pikmin cameos.
Now, I'm not 100% sure if the Nintendo franchises Universal can make attractions, lands, and/or references of includes Fire Emblem, since its actually developed by a different company (Intelligent Systems), but seeing the awesomeness that is Super Nintendo World over and over again online, I keep thinking to myself. What if they made a ride adaptation of a Fire Emblem game?
Ever since Super Nintendo World was announced to exist, I had always thought of Universal making a Fire Emblem Awakening ride adaptation there, in the style of Pirates of the Caribbean and Frozen Ever After at Disney World. I had also really loved for them to make a Kid Icarus Uprising flying theater attraction like Soarin and Flight of Passage also at Disney, even though I knew it most likely wouldn't happen due to the series not having a game in several years, and it hasn't really had anything outside of the 3DS reboot and Smash representation. But I'm going to focus on Fire Emblem anyway, because this is the subreddit for it. The reason why I felt of Awakening at first was because the absolutely GORGEOUS cutscenes in the game as well as the other story-relevant scenes could be beautifully translated into a great ride, complete with amazing and well-made animatronics of the characters in their scenes. Well, that's what I thought at first, but if Universal were actually to make an adaptation of a FE game, I feel like they would pick Three Houses, because it's the most recent, a very popular entry in the series, has introduced a lot of newcomers to the franchise, and it is also sort of like Harry Potter. Which wouldn't be bad at all, it would still be very awesome. Seeing how they did their Harry Potter, Jurassic Park, Marvel, and Secret Li

I have a Wii U that's having problems playing Nintendo Land. I realized I could probably set up CEMU to play it so we can have 5 players going again on it. Does anyone have experience setting this up?
Not sure how to get the Wii remotes and the Wii U pad to work all together at the same time with this.
