Aperson Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 Oh boy, this is the first console with TWO of my top 5 games of all time on it. It is therefore a no brainer that both of these go on here. Okami Xenoblade Chronicles Donkey Kong Country Returns Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Super Mario Galaxy 2 3
Jonnas Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 This is a curious one. I have mixed feelings about a lot of the Wii's library. Donkey Kong Country Returns De Blob Little King's Story Excite Truck Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars I own a couple of Wii games I haven't actually played... I hope I don't eventually regret ignoring them. 1 3
Sofiz Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 Here's my picks! 428 Shibuya Scramble (I cannot recommend this enough, it's on PC too. If you like VNs with really cool mechanics, this will be your go-to for the Wii. I hope someone will/has tried this and it isn't just me ) Kirby's Epic Yarn Super Smash Bros. Brawl Xenoblade Chronicles No More Heroes 1 3

Brawl The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Metroid: Other M Disaster: Day of Crisis I had like 4 games on my initial list before they got replaced by games I remembered going down the list of Wii games. Excuse me while I go cry in the corner. I've also edited the opening post with the Top 10 Gamecube Games article. I know you have that rule that prevents you posting games you aren't nominating, but I'm curious now. Mind sending me a PM? I already voted and won't be changing my list so it's not cheating, right?
Vanilla Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 (edited) Subject to change, since I haven't played the Wii in years: Xenoblade Chronicles Trauma Team Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles Silent Hill: Shattered Memories Wii Sports (This is the big placeholder game that'll probably get changed.) Edited July 6, 2019 by Vanilla 3
markderoos Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 Little King’s Story Zack & Wiki Punch-Out!! Muramasa: The Demon Blade Mario Strikers: Charged Football 4
Mandalore Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 Struggling to scrape together even 5 for this one. A shame Twilight Princess isn't allowed. Excitebike World Rally Mario Kart Wii Metroid Other M Okami Super Mario Galaxy 3
nekunando Posted July 7, 2019 Posted July 7, 2019 Super Mario Galaxy 2 Wii Sports The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword No More Heroes Silent Hill: Shattered Memories 1 3
Dcubed Posted July 7, 2019 Posted July 7, 2019 The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Kirby’s Return to Dreamland/Kirby’s Adventure Wii Wii Sports Resort Donkey Kong Country Returns Trauma Team So many great games I wanted to include... WHY ONLY FIVE!? 2
WackerJr Posted July 7, 2019 Posted July 7, 2019 Despite my large catalogue of games I’ve struggled a little to identify the best ones. Many good, but in my opinion there weren’t a lot that I found truly great, especially in comparison to other consoles. Anyway, some nominations: Little King’s Story Pandora’s Tower Super Mario Galaxy 2 World of Goo Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros’ Treasure 4
Ealdst Posted July 8, 2019 Posted July 8, 2019 Been a while since I posted on here, but this is one list I feel the need to add some input to, as the Wii got so unfairly labelled as a casual and/or shovelware machine when there are many overlooked gems on there! I nominate the following, deliberately avoiding some of the more obvious games that will no doubt receive enough nominations anyway:Xenoblade ChroniclesZack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' TreasureMuramasa: The Demon BladePandora's TowerA Shadow's TaleSent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk 2 3
Dufniall Posted July 8, 2019 Posted July 8, 2019 Here Wii go! - Guitar Hero III Legends Of Rock - Metroid: Other M - Monster Hunter Tri - Super Mario Galaxy - Trauma Center New Blood 3
killthenet Posted July 8, 2019 Posted July 8, 2019 Another Code R: A Journey into Lost Memories The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Mario Kart Wii Super Mario Galaxy Xenoblade Chronicles 3
S.C.G Posted July 12, 2019 Posted July 12, 2019 Nintendo Wii games? Easy... here wii go... Here are my picks... The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Super Mario Galaxy 2 Super Smash Bros. Brawl Kirby's Epic Yarn There may be a huge library on the Wii but ultimately, for me, I'd always end up choosing those same retail games which I enjoyed playing the most. Look out for the N-E Top Ten DS Games coming soon to the main site. 2
Glen-i Posted July 13, 2019 Author Posted July 13, 2019 Nominations are now closed Our Wii Shortlist consists of 19 games. Spoiler Donkey Kong Country Returns Kirby's Epic Yarn Little King's Story Mario Kart Wii Metroid: Other M Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Muramasa: The Demon Blade No More Heroes Okami Pandora's Tower Silent Hill: Shattered Memories Super Mario Galaxy Super Mario Galaxy 2 Super Smash Bros. Brawl The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Trauma Team Wii Sports Xenoblade Chronicles Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure Voting must be done via Private Messages sent to me. This will help to prevent any possible tactical voting. You must choose 3 games and order them from your favourite to least favourite. It'd be great if you could explain why you chose a game in the PM. I can then use these in the article that will go up on the N-Europe front page. I will abstain from these votes and act as a tiebreaker. If two games tie, I'll decide which game comes out on top. Voting closes on the 20th of July 1
EEVILMURRAY Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 Apologies for missing out, but I feel almost glad I didn't if Other M got on the shortlist. I would've been tainted. 1

Dcubed Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 (edited) Wow! Punchout!! didn’t make it!!! That’s nuts! Shame on you all (and shame on me for not fitting it into my own top 5; as much as I wanted to). Honestly shocked that it didn’t make the shortlist (Not that it’s the only surprise casualty... Poor Wii Sports Resort... Poor NSMBU Wii... Poor Kirby’s Return to Dreamland/Adventure Wii! That one hurts me!). Still, we ended up with some good’uns anyway (glad to see Metroid Other M, Pandora’s Tower, Skyward Sword and Trauma Team getting some well due respect; far too often they’re either forgotten or unappreciated; so good on you guys!)

Mandalore Posted July 13, 2019 Posted July 13, 2019 No love for Excitebike World Rally? Hopefully it ends up on the Switch Online Subscription, it'd be a good fit.

Jonnas Posted July 14, 2019 Posted July 14, 2019 Man, that is a disappointing shortlist. No Excite Truck, or De Blob, or Tatsunoko vs Capcom! Not even Radiant Dawn or House of the Dead: Overkill. The two titles I own but haven't played yet are Sonic Colours and Wario Land Shake It... and those didn't make it either! Luckily, I can still put a Top 3 together, but I'm shocked at how little this shortlist agrees with me.
