Corcaigh Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Our Wii doesn't get a lot of use - the Wii sports games don't have a lot of replay interest to us. We also have the other two consoles and so do our 'serious' gaming there. We have Mario Kart, which is great, so what are the unique fun games that make the Wii? Super Smash Bros? Sonic? Super Mario Galaxy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDoyler23 Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Mario Galaxy is awesome. Super Paper Mario is a lot of fun, too. Rayman Raving Rabbids is hilarious if you like a little sick humor. I bought Sonic and the Secret Rings ans couldn't get into it. I just got Earthworm Jim for VC! Completely forgot about that blast from the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacky McSlackAss Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Super Mario Galaxy is great fun. Give Super Paper Mario and Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess a try. Lately I've been playing alot of Boom Blox with friends and we all love that. Its a game with different modes but its similar to Jenga. You use the wii remote to remove blocks in an effort to not have the tower fall over. But there are also modes where you have to knock the tower over by throwing something at it.

If you don't have it, get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Only game on Wii I really got in to was Wii Sports. There are probably other real addictive games, but Wii Sports is a ton of fun, has lasting power, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

81artmonk Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 The WII in our house is worthless to me personally, however my kids and wife like it alot. About the only game I've played on it is Mario Galaxies and it was pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get that and if you want multiplayer get Super Smash Bros Brawl. It's too bad Donkey Kong died after Donkey Kong Country on SNES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Harris Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 believe me when i say it, link's crossbow training is easily the most fun you can have for 20 bucks. edit: in video game speak, of course. for christmas, we bought a game for my father in law that has horseshoes, beanbag toss, lawn darts, beer pong and several other games. i'm looking forward to playing that.

PokerPacker Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Games I do have: Super Mario Strikers: Charged is an awesome soccer game. After playing it at a friend's house I had to buy it. Its one of the best Mario-themed sports games I've played if not the best. Metroid Prime 3 is an awesome FPS/puzzle game. makes great use of the motion controls to add that extra something. It actually feels like your throwing the grapple-beam at the enemy and ripping the shield out of his hands. Super Mario Galaxy- Not as ground-breaking as Mario 64, but still a great platformer. I was a little disappointed by it because I heard all the hype coming into it. Don't expect it to be the second coming and you'll have a good time with it. Super Smash Bros. Brawl- Must have party multiplayer game. really took the franchise to the next level. Online isn't that great since there's about a half-second delay between control and action, but play that thing with a couple friends in your basement or wherever and you'll have a lot of fun. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess- Okay, technically I don't have the Wii version of this game, I have it for gamecube since I got impatient waiting to find a Wii. Overall, this could very well be the best Zelda game ever. Some people still put OoT as the best ever, but I really liked this one. It is one epic adventure that will give you hours upon hours of gameplay. In one go around, I spent over 40 hours on it. I've probably got played the game for a total of around 100 hours. It is that good. _________________________________________________________ Games I do not have but heard great things about and want: Resident Evil 4 Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 Call of Duty: World at War Okami Mario Kart Wii No More Heroes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redd Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Personally I think Majora's Mask is the best 3d Zelda game thanks to the NPC interactions in Termia. You could actually transform and many of the mask were very useful. I would give the dungeons in OOT the edge for better design, but everything else, Majora's Mask dominated OOT. It's very underrated imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redd Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 okami is pretty fun I would put Okami up there but it's really just a port of the PS2 game with motion controls. If you've never played the ps2 game you could get the Wii version but I would just buy the cheaper version myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattGeorge85 Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I've only played the Wii at a friends house. The Resident Evil Chronicles (I think) was a great two player game. It's your basic House of The Dead- but better. It would at least be worth a rental. It delivered a great shoot 'em up evening. Not really sure of the replayability though.
