Must own Wii games

Post by tnf »

Well, I found one today and went ahead and bought it.

Aside from Mario, Metroid, and Zelda, are there any other gems that a person who doesn't follow the odd Nintendo titles that closely should look into?

Guitar Hero obviously, but you've probably already got that for the 360 if you want it (it's cheaper for the Wii).

These are good, but rent them first to be sure you like them:
ExciteTruck
Rayman Raving Rabbids
There are two flight/dog-fight games that are fun but I can't remember the titles of them. I rented both of them and couldn't decide which I liked better. In advanced/sim mode you can use the Wii remote like a flight stick, it's a blast.

Resident Evil 4
Galaxy
Driver

Battalion Wars 2 looks good but I haven't played it yet.

Excite Truck is actually pretty good.
Super Paper Mario is good fun.
Mercury Meltdown Revolution is brilliant.
I just got my hands on Zack & Wiki. First impressions are very good.

I know of Heatseeker and Wing Island. Both which supposedly aren't very good.

I also second Zack and Wiki.

Even though Resident Evil 4 has been out for the other consoles, it's quite different on the Wii and has a much better aiming system and IIRC a few extra bonuses.

And aside from the usual suspects listed, I second Lego Star Wars. Anything with the words "Lego" and "Star Wars" independently is a guaranteed winnar so when you put them together...

most of it is designed to be lame... it's as if it were a big joke about how lame mario games have always been. unfortunately they go too far... a little too "get it? get it? look, we're cool. get it?" barf.
