Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by Dempsey on 04-03-2007 at 08:24 AM

I'm too lazy to look some up myself and I wanna know if anyone's played any good ones. 

Can anyone recommend any good Wii games to get?

Zelda and red steel are amazing, but youve probablly already played them.

The link above might help you choose one :)

I would recommend Red Steel, Zelda, and Wario Ware: Smooth Moves.
Those are the funniest ones.

Zelda :p

Sorry if this somewhat strays from the topic, but what do you guys (who actually own the console) think of the Wii?

PS: I would prefer if there wasnt too much bias in responses :P


RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by Eddie on 04-03-2007 at 01:15 PM

Eh the only Game i've seen on it is Zelda and Call of Duty 3, but CoD3 looks crap on it compared to PS2 and things *-)

My sister owns one, and i don't really like the graphics on it, yes the price tag is awesome but not my kinda console *-)


RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by absorbation on 04-03-2007 at 02:20 PM

The Wii is amazing, it's fun in a box. The games are extremely good and it has a flawless, clean feel to it. However if you like gunning down ho's or joining the army, consider a Xbox 260 or a PS3 :P. Wii games are very adventurous and have a strong Japanese feel to them (which I like). Often the games being by Nintendo themselves mean they are close to perfect (in terms of the code), no silly glitches or limitations.

However there are two things about the Wii which I don't like. The storage is weak, although external storage is in development, a 256MB hard drive may put off developers. The Wii also lacks high definition support. However in terms of fun, it's amazing!

You can use up to 2GB SD cards for storage, and the builtin storage is 512 MB. ;)
It sucks that there's no HD support :(, but the price explains! :)

I've got an SD card for the Wii. Total rip off! The Wii cannot communicate like normal external storage, instead it is treated as a place to hold backups of virtual console games and hold images etc. Games can not retrieve data from them, making them somewhat useless to me. Whoever made the SD card has conned many users into buying something they thought had another function :(.

graphics aren't "awesome" but the controls and the whole wii-mote are awesome. I don't own the wii, my cousin does.. The main reason I bought the PS3 instead was because of the games. Although I did beat Zelda in the wii :P (stole it from my cousin for about a week *-))

RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by Chrono on 04-04-2007 at 07:59 AM

Gamespot's Top10 Wii games by their review score, might be a good place to look.

Gamestop reviews scare me. Use IGN (H):

RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by John Anderton on 12-13-2007 at 06:41 PM

Everybody's golf, ea's fight night and tennis are the ones that I'd get when I get a wii ;)


RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by Dempsey on 12-13-2007 at 07:18 PM

I've got about 30 games now, only play Rayman Raving Rabbids, Big Brain Academy and Excite Truck though


RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by Shippo on 12-13-2007 at 08:04 PM

I only own two games right now for the Wii, both amazingly fun. Wario Ware: Smooth Moves and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, I recommend both of them. (play Metroid Prime 1 & 2 first to understand the story. ^_~ - both GameCube games)

I also recommend Super Mario Galaxy as well, fun game that is with a unique look to it. For a Mario game, sure did beat Zelda quickly for top game.

I don't like Red Steel that much. Controls a bit funky for some reason, and the gameplay just didn't cut it for me.

As to why I love my Wii.. well, I just hate Sony and Microsoft, so Nintendo all the way.

Oh yeah......... When it comes out: Super Smash Bros. Brawl. =P


RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by absorbation on 12-13-2007 at 09:29 PM

Super Mario Galaxy is unbelievably polished, never before have I seen a game that has been so finely tuned. It's incredibly fun too :P.


RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by Chris4 on 12-13-2007 at 09:46 PM

Resident Evil 4 is supposed to be the best game out for the Wii. My mate has it and he says it's great.


RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by prashker on 12-13-2007 at 10:01 PM

HURRY UP SUPER SMASH BROS BRAWL :(

RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by Willz on 12-13-2007 at 10:03 PM

:( we have to wait the longest, Australian wii games come about about a week after they do in Europe. And in Europe its predicted April-June for release :(


RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by raghav on 12-14-2007 at 06:41 AM

Zelda is probably the best game on Wii , anyways Xbox 360 ftw!!! :P


RE: Wii Games - Anyone got any recommendations? by Lilo on 12-14-2007 at 09:22 PM

trauma centre se (very addictive ;))
super paper mario (nice, but not as nice as paper mario for gamecube)
mario party 8 (always fun ;))
