Posted November 13, 2009 So heres the story I bought a Wii at launch and after a copy of the weeks I was bored of it I must admit motion controls are not as good as using a joypad so anyway my Wii has been pretty much gathering dust only coming out when I bought the occasional release (SMG, MKwii, SSBB, MP3 etc) But this last week I was having a look around and noticed some really cheap games so I thought I would take a punt and boy I was so wrong about the Wii being a 1 trick pony I've bought A Boy and His Blob Wario: Shake dimension Dragonball: Revenge of Piccolo Madworld Lets Tap! Punch Out De Blob Zak and Wiki Okami Metal Slug Anthology House of the dead: Overkill CE Some are being kept for xmas prezzies but the ones I've played are actually really fun and have actually kept me away from playing Modern Warfare 2 So I just wanted to check with you guys who have stuck with the console what other titles are worth a look on the Wii? any Hidden or overlooked gems?

Posted November 13, 2009 I would have sex with my Wii if it had a vagina. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 13, 2009 (edited) Looks to me like you've done a great job of getting most of Wii's great exclusive. But definately give No More Heroes a go. IMO it's one of the best games on Wii and especially with the sequel coming out next year! And if you haven't already played it, Resi 4 Wii Edition of course!

Posted November 14, 2009 Compliment that with a few Gamecube games you may have missed. Cheap and cheerful classics, waiting for you on the shelves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 14, 2009 Snap up a copy of Little Kings Story and Eledees. Both these games are exclusives and top quality titles which are bound to be dirt cheap now. Oh, and get Super Smash Bros Brawl! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 14, 2009 There's some absolutely fantastic second tier 'underground' games on the Wii that go unnoticed because of the bad press the Wii gets. You've touched on one or two there for sure - MadWorld is tremendous fun, as is Zack and Wiki and Okami etc. Overkill is absolutely fantastic - I only got that one recently myself and have been blown away. A Wii classic imho. Have a look at Bully, No More Heroes for sure, maybe NiGHTS if you liked the old Saturn game, and also Pro Evolution Soccer , which has the most incredible control scheme. I'm also playing PES 2009 on my PC, but it's not a patch on the Wii game, though admittedly the Wii can't match the graphics of a PC. I'll take the Wii version anyday though. I mentioned Bully, which to me is a brilliant Wii game, perfect for the system. Has a great atmosphere and sense of humour. The school and surrounding area makes a fun sandbox to play in, though it's a little slow to start. Don't let that put you off, because it picks up a lot once you unlock the gates at the front! Lots to love on the Wii! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 14, 2009 metroid prime trilogy! the most best underrated deal ever! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 15, 2009 NiGHTS! Get it! I loved every moment of it. I hadn't played the Saturn version and got it simply because I found it dirt cheap and it's become one of my favourite games! Also, Excite Truck! Another game I randomly brought because of the cheapness yet I was blown away by how intensly fun it is! So fast paced, so crazy and really smooth!

Posted November 15, 2009 If you haven't played the GCN games before, Metroid Prime Trilogy is a must. Otherwise, NIGHTS isn't the best, but its good for the price you'll most likely end up paying for it. I've seen it for a fiver occasionally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair, some parts aren't great (CHAMELEON) but other parts were just brilliant. Flying through the city was one of my favourite moments in gaming and as a series it has to be my favourite. I love the characters and the music, the whole atmosphere is so magical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
