Slammers Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 What a **** list! For one thing, New Super Mario Bros isn't out yet but should be good. Tony Hawks ride is also unreleased, and is pretty much guaranteed to be an absolute dog of a game... Wii Fit is more of an exercise program than a game and has been proven to barely do anything. Sports resort is supposed to be crap as well. Don't mean to be ruining your post so harshly, but I would hate for someone to make a purchase based on this list only to be disappointed.

LOL, dude you haven't played any of these games so how can you comment? What...you read reviews online and watch trailers on youtube? Not trying to be negative but not sure how your comments are valid.

Chasethebase Veteran Posted November 5, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 5, 2009 Gaha, that 10th screenshot is of Mario Kart Arcade anyways! Still, it seems accurate.

Fred Derf Veteran Posted November 5, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 5, 2009 My son's favourite is still the 1999 release of Paper Mario on WiiWare or whatever the retro console games are called (I think WiiWare are new downloadable titles and there is another term for the older games).

SimplySchizo Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 should've probably been a Top 3 list. Twilight Princess definitely at the top, after that there's... Hell I would'nt know. Only game I did buy for this was TP. Garbage titles and lineup for player as myself. Just not my cup of tea. Thank god I was able to sell it off right before its' price drop. :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/842196-the-10-best-games-for-wii-best-wii-games-from-nintendo/#findComment-591806160 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoHideo Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 How can Super Mario Galaxy not be on this list? It's the best game for Wii.

Slammers Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 LOL, dude you haven't played any of these games so how can you comment? What...you read reviews online and watch trailers on youtube? Not trying to be negative but not sure how your comments are valid. I've played every game on the list apart from sports resort and obviously the ones that aren't released yet. The list is in no way the top 10 best games for nintendo, I have no idea how they decided on these LOL edit: and yes Twilight Princess and SMG are the best games on Wii. Not my opinion just the truth.

The Teej Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 In no particular order... Twilight Princess Super Mario Galaxy Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Wii Sports Resort Punch Out!! Super Smash Bros Brawl The Conduit Mario Kart Wii Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games Wii Fit There are other notable additions like Wii Sports, Boy and his Blob, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, Madworld, House of the Dead, Dead Space Extraction, etc. It's quite easy to do a top 15 or top 20.

The Teej Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 What I wouldn't give to play this.... :D But I haven't found a machine over here so far... :( It's a rip off. It's a quid per race, no matter how well you do. I absolutely smashed the computer with something like 20 seconds on top of the 2nd place CPU, and -still- got asked to put in another quid for another race.

GreatStalin Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I would at least have Super Mario Galaxy and, obviously, Metroid Prime Trilogy on this list. Trilogy is by far the best you can get!

Gotenks98 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I would only go with 1st party titles on the Wii. There is no point in playing games like GH5 or TH on a Wii and have the worse graphics. Wii fit only works if you are consistent and already in shape. It can be brutal on those who are out of shape trying to get in shape (like myself). Wii sports has always been kind of meh so I wouldnt even bother with that. Everything else seems good.

Some 3rd party titles like The Conduit are absolutely awesome on the Wii, don't feel too burned by 3rd parties on the Wii!

First party Wii titles are probably the only reason to buy the Wii in the first place. The lack of a solid third party lineup makes buying an xbox for the hardcore gaming an easy choice.

Rudy Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Lol @ the screenshot they used for Mario Kart Wii....that's actually the Mario Kart arcade game done in collaboration with Namco ;) But I'm not surprised to see Nintendo is taking most of the top spots, even if they started making games for other consoles they would make some of the top games for them too. Nintendo as always been great at understanding what the majority of people want and not just the "hardcore" gamers.

c3ntury Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Wii Fit Plus is merely a expansion, therefore should not count in my opinion. & tony hawks ride has the same skateboard controls as the shawn white one with the Wii Balance Board - it will fail.

Defiantly Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I just got my Wii, for the Wii Fit Plus (which I think is a blast) and for Tiger Woods Golf 10, which is awesome. ...and for my kids to play on. Other than that, I play Xbox 360 exclusively. But, my point is that Tiger Woods 10 is excellent and with the motion plus controller add-on, VERY accurate.
