I'm 40, and i play many types of games... i play some with my kids, and some others alone, but the more "mature" games i've experienced on Wii are not automatically the ones i prefered... that's why i prefer to rent most of these...

Madworld was a huge disappointment, by example... way too short, and quite a basic slasher... while No More Heroes was a cool surprise, full of 2nd degree otaku humor, but needs further improvements in its sequel to reach complete awesomeness...

So, if you want recommandations beyond the Wii games with an "universal appeal" (Mario Kart, Galaxy, Smash Bros, etc), here are the ones comin' to my mind: these are really worth your precious bucks...

Metroid Prime 3: the best use of the wiimote so far, 20 hours+ of exploration and fighting in a very immersive universe, an absolute must-have...

Resident Evil 4: a wiimake with perfect controls, feels new even when you knew the game before...

Okami: one of the longest and most epic adventure you may find, with wiimote controls perfect when you're used to these, and some of the best art style ever found in a videogame...

Little King's Story: despite its cute kiddy look, this is a deep, 50 hours long game, mixing some of the best elements of Pikmin, Animal Crossing and Okami... a real must if you're into strategy and epic adventures...

Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn: if you're into strategy RPG with a real challenge, this game and its Gamecube predecessor are easily some of the best, and will keep you busy for quite some time...

De Blob: if you may like a good looking, colourful platformer with huge levels to explore and some awesome groovy music blended with the gameplay, this game may be a great surprise, despite not looking "mature" at all...

And if you like on-rails shooters, you may give a try at House of the Dead or Umbrella Chronicles... they're fun while they last, at least worth a rent...

Add No More Heroes, and of course Twilight Princess and Mario Galaxy if you still don't know these, and you have hundreds of hours of great gaming waiting for you...
