Here's my collection so far:
Super Mario Galaxy
Metroid Prime 3
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Zack & Wiki
Red Steel
Manhunt 2 (not exclusive, but I love the Manhunt series)
Excite Truck
No More Heroes
MadWorld

The ones I'm looking forward to:
No More Heroes 2
Metroid: Other M (maybe)
Super Mario Galaxy 2
The Conduit

I'm in interest of QUALITY, EXCLUSIVE Wii games. This means no Guitar Hero, Madden, Tiger Woods PGA or any of these things. Does anybody have any suggestions of good Wii games, either released or unreleased?

Let's make this into a general discussion thread of Wii games.

I've got a Wii. My wife plays it mostly.

Lately, a lot of Super Mario Galaxy and all the Raving Rabids games.

I liked House of the Dead: Overkill. Very cool game. Looking forward to Super Mario Bros Wii and Super Mario Galaxy 2.

WHOA, you guys need to check this game out. It's called The Grinder. Basically, it's an FPS you exist in a world where vampires, zombies and werewolves exist. You just shoot the fuck out of them in numerous survival horror scenarios. It looks AWESOME, and it's Wii exclusive. The music rules too, as quoted from this interview:
"IGN: The music samples we've included are amazing. What kind of mood are you hoping to create for the title?

Eric: We want to capture the sound of Trent Reznor and Ennio Morricone in bar room fight after watching Dusk Till Dawn, Dawn of the Dead, An American Werewolf in London, and Tremors and doing copious shots of tequila."

Must.buy.GAME.

Super Mario Galaxy
Rayman Raving Rabbids
Wii Sports
Zack and Wiki

My collection is really small lol. I would have more, but I gotta finish the dozens of unplayed games I own for PS2 first...

Can I have some opinions on Super Smash Bros Brawl and Super Paper Mario? I heard that SSBB was pretty much a copy of Melee but with updated graphics and more/different content. I'm not sure if I want to shovel out $40 for that. I also heard Super Paper Mario was nothing like the first two and was kinda just bland and boring..

Super Paper Mario was fun for me on a first run, very interesting and cool. (if you like reading) However, after a first playthrough I highly doubt that you'll ever touch it again.

SSBB is a cool, fun game. It does have better graphics and more content than melee, and it's just that that makes it a worthy purchase. It is very cool to finally have Mario fight Sonic. tongue sticking out smiley

I enjoyed WarioWare: Smooth Moves. It is a hilarious game that is great for parties or playing with friends. I find it gets you moving more than some titles, if that is important to you. Since it is a compilation of mini or micro games it is good for those of us who have very little time to invest in a game.

If you are unsure about a game, why don't you rent it first? Many video stores now offer game rentals so you can try before you buy.

Wow, this is going to piss a lot of you off: Nintendo wtf! [tiny.cc]

I saw that earlier. I get their thinking, but it's a fucking stupid idea.

 

06/19/09 12:47 AM

Well...maybe this means means that games are going to be more difficult?

I though about that too, but it still just seems like a stupid idea to me. I know it's optional, but part of the fun in games is trying to do things yourself, to test skill. Knowing that the option for autoplay is even there feels kind of strange to me.

Now that sounds like a quality game right there!

Yes!

Also, for any of you who may be unaware, The Conduit comes out on tuesday, June 23rd. It looks amazing, and a very fun online FPS.

 

06/24/09 2:06 AM

Bought The Conduit today. AWESOME game. Anybody here have it yet? If you do, add me as a friend for online play.

If you liked Excite Truck, get Excite Bots...it's basically Excite Truck on crack. I'd also plug for House of the Dead: Overkill. If you like grindhouse movies at all, you'll LOVE this game.

No More Heroes is amazing, is it not?

I'd recommend more than Excite Bots and Overkill, but...man, tired. AS for The Conduit, I've been looking forward to it, but I just bought Devil Survivor for the DS (strategy RPG with turn based battles, om nom nom). When I get the money/time I'll pick it up.

EDIT: btw, great collection. I don't know many people with Zack and Wiki beside myself and those I bought it for. Ok, I'm the only one I know who owns it beside myself and those I bought it for :p

I actually have been meaning to check out the new House of the Dead, and I did love Excite Truck. However, right now The Conduit is taking up my gaming time. tongue sticking out smiley And yes, No More Heroes IS amazing. Can't wait for the sequel.

Also, Zack & Wiki is a great game. I bought it in November of 2008. Very unique, puzzling and difficult. I like that. It's a shame it sold so poorly.

^What's your friend #?

 

05/05/10 5:31 AM

@ReznorsApostle for what, Conduit or COD4? Those r the only ones I really play online much.

 

05/05/10 5:33 AM

Personally I would be really happy if, with the introduction of an HD console, Nintendo did away with the friend number garbage and made a new system akin to PSN or xbox live... But free unlike live

I loved the wii to start off with and there are some fantastic games on the system but it's so dry now with little variety any more that unfortunately I don't play much now. Nintendo seriously need to get another console announced by the end of this year or I think they will be in trouble.

I have most of the games listed but ones that should be played that are not on the original user's post are:

- House Of The Dead: Overkill (The game I have laughed the most at!)
- Sin & Punishment 2 (I forget the subtitle)
- Fatal Frame 4 (only released in Japan but some clever people got a downloadable subtitle patch for it)

Games that look/sound great:
- Mario Galaxy 2
- Metroid: Other M
- The Last Story (the RPG being made by Mistwalker)
- Monster Hunter Tri
- Zelda Wii
- Pikmin 3
- Muramasa The Demon Blade

Also I agree on Zack and Wiki. It was a fucking fantastic game and could be very challenging. The right use of the wiimote and a game that really should have a sequel.

 

05/16/10 4:59 PM

I only own "Super Smash Brothers Brawl" and "Twilight Princess." I only own the Wii for games that involve Zelda characters, basically.

 

05/16/10 5:49 PM

Went into best buy today with $40 and came out with madworld, no more heroes, and red steel (1). Initial impressions?
I only bought red steel cuz it was bundled with NMH. That said it os not horrible, just mediocre at times. I will probably enjoy it after finishing NMH and madworld.
NMH is amazing, like a bad-ass zelda game but just the fight scenes. Ok not really but it is amazing.
MadWorld is just sick, in every meaning of the word. It's awesome, it's disturbed, and it makes my mom physically ill. Best way to live out those disturbed fantasies involving that asshole at school/work you just want dead. You know, that one guy who thinks he's the shit but is just a piece of shit? I do. Imagine his face on the baddies, and it's awesome.
I played Madworld most, so I have the best impressions of it, but both it and NMH will prove to be awesome I hope.

I thought we were discussing games we've actually played.
I personally hope Zelda is actually in development for the "Wii 2 HD", along with Suda 51's diarrhea, AKA no more heroes 3. See the interview for that joke.

As of now, I only have Super Smash Bros. Brawl and I'm still addicted to it. It's also the game to play at most parties where there's a Wii, especially when I'm with my friends/acquaintances that are also into it. My favorite characters are Snake, Sonic, Ike, Mario, Pikachu, Meta Knight, Wolf and Kirby. I just use my Wii to play my GameCube games for now. (Because I've been putting off my gaming collection.)

I highly reccomend resident evil 4 wii ed., no more heroes and madworld if you're looking for some brilliant "mature" wii games. NMH and madworld are friggen hilarious!
