I think my answer is actually Super Mario Maker (Wii U). Due to a combination of circumstances leading to its success, it had a certain atmosphere and community style that I don't think can ever be replicated again (even its sequel SMM2 did not feel this particular way that I'm describing, due the the fact that it was coming up from prior knowledge of SMM1). Plus differences in physics and objects between the two games (spikes are normal obstacles in 1 but have insanely bloated hitboxes in 2, eliminating most of their former usages).

I had over 1100 hours in SMM1, but despite strong arguments that SMM2 is a better video game (which I even agree with), I only managed around 550 hours and at least part of that was the missing spark.

Edit: I classify this game as "replaced" because Miiverse is closed (can't comment on courses) and they removed the ability to upload courses. The eventual closure of playing online completely is inevitable.

Totally agree, SMM1 is my answer to this.
