Wii game suggestions?

quadraptor's picture
Hey this is non-TEF related of course but we're getting a Wii. My cousins decided not to keep theirs, so my aunt is visiting and decided to bring it and all of their games. The whole package will cost $200.

We don't know what games it comes with but we're trying to get ideas for games we'd like.

Smash Bros Brawl is already on our list, so we don't need that suggested. We're also planning on getting Wii Fit (Mom really wants it) and Wii Sports. Other than that, if you have any suggestions, please let me know.

What has been suggested on iScribble (I'll put *s next to the ones that have been strongly suggested later)

- Zelda Twilight Princess*
- Endless Ocean*
- Godzilla Unleashed
- Trauma Center: 2nd Opinion
- Baroque
- Obscure: The Aftermath


Edit - Just got the Wii today. It came with Wii Play, Wii Sports, Mario Galaxy, and Super Paper Mario. Can't hook it up right now, though, because my mom's watching Dr. Phil on the TV it's supposed to go on *facepalms*

Edit 2 - Has a blast last night. I played some Wii Play games with my mom and brother, and then got to play Wii Sports with my dad. He beat me at bowling but I whipped him in Golf. Laughing out loud

Edit 3 - I picked up Okami today, and my brother got Brawl and another game called No More Heroes. We tried out everything...well he tried out his game, then we played some Brawl (I really like playing as the Pokemon Trainer!), and then I got to try out Okami. I swear, that's the best workout I've ever gotten playing a video game, and I'd love to play more of it but my arm and back are sore. Maybe tomorrow...

I highly recommend Twilight

I highly recommend Twilight Princess and Okami, I myself have them and I love both games to pieces.
As for other games I don't really know what to suggest...I do know that the main site (nintendo.com) has a list of all the games available on the Wii if that is of any help to you.

hmm well i see all the ones

hmm well i see all the ones i would suggest are already up there. Twilight Princess, Mario Galaxy are ones i would HIGHLY recommend. Twilight Princess is just too awesome, and Mario Galaxy is a ton of fun (even if it gets frustrating once in a while XD)

um, but what i would say is DONT get Dreamscape or whatever that Sega game was. apparently it was crappy XD

Okami is what I'd -highly-

Okami is what I'd -highly- recommend (it has a really good story line, and different graphics) but Twilight Princess is good. Have you thought of one of those Lara Croft games? Darn me and my forgetfulness Dx I think it was Lara Croft Tomb Raider or something like that. I tried it, its pretty fun. Have fun with your wii ^^ har.

I have Okami for the PS2,

I have Okami for the PS2, and I can say that it is AWESOME. If the wii version is anything like it then I'm sure its' worth getting.

I also have Twilight Princess for the Gamecube, which is also awesome (wolves YAY) and I have endless ocean (dolphins YAY). Endless ocean is a very relaxing game.. if you're looking for something that has action, it's not for you. But it is worth it, for something different. It's like virtual scuba diving, pretty much.

Well, I don't have a suggestion, I just wan't to say I really don't think you should focus on getting the endless ocean, it gets boring after a short while, and it's poor quality, so put that way low on your list fo games to get, I would! xp

The big question for me

The big question for me is... *don't kill me*

Are people suggesting Okami because it has a unique gameplay or storyline, or are people just suggesting it because you play as a wolf?

I'm willing to consider it if it's not getting wolf popularity. I'm not really one of those people who are obsessed with them.

well, if youre not a wolf

well, if youre not a wolf fan, i would probably still get it for the visuals and maybe the story (i personally never played it... or saw it) but yeah... that and the music is pretty cool

I'm not a wolf freak either

I'm not a wolf freak either Quad. The music is absolutly amazing, and finding characters around a painted landscape is epic, it's like what an ancient videogame would look like if a japanese painter got ahold of it. The dialogue is like sims talk, it isn't really a language, its sometimes annoying but you get used to it. It has a lot to do with Japanese (oriental) culture, and each of the (12-13?) brush gods are star signs or a part of the zodiac. It's an adventure game and it's relativly easy, but you can keep playing once you finish the game and start over with all of your money. I'll send a good review in a link in a few.

By far, that's the best review of Okami I've found, ever.
You can hear some of the music in the review, and here's another link. Sit back and enjoy!

I suggested Okami because of the storyline and the over all beauty of it. Not only that, but it's so much fun to play, I spend hours upon hours doing nothing but running at breakneck speed across the large environments and just goofing off (of course, I do that in every game I own so go figure XD)

Nuu, silly, Okami is a great

Nuu, silly, Okami is a great game with amazing graphics and awesome controls! (call me okami-obsessed, if you will) The whole story-line is really interesting, kind-of like a book you just can't put down. Its really a neat game, wolf or no wolf. =D

That's good, it sounds like

That's good, it sounds like a great game.

And sorry if I offended anyone about that. I think wolves are nice animals but sometimes I get a little annoyed when people are like "OMG WOLVES ARE TEH GREATEST AMINAL EEEVVVAAAARRRR!!!!1111!!!" and then draw them over and over on Deviantart.

Cool, that'll be one I'll pick up then. I'm sure my brother will be all over the mario games that it came with, so I'll need to have something of my own.

I know what you mean, even

I know what you mean, even though I'm a wolf lover myself, it does get rather annoying after the billionth time you've seen a wolf drawing or heard "SAVE TEH WOLVES!!1" (I see that one a lot =\ it's quite sad actually)
