Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Wii RPGs, Which Ones?

With my recent aquiring of the Wii, I need some RPG suggestions.  First of all, I'm not a Zelda fan.  Second, I'll be buying Fire Emblen as soon as I can find it at a $20ish price.  And thirdly, yes I'm looking forward to Xenoblade  Just check my game collection for my already growing Wii games.  Thanks.

if you are a fan of Final Fantasy. and you love light-hearted type of JRPGs then Final Fantasy Fables:  Chocobo Dungeon is great for you, i can't comment on FFCC : Crystal Bearer because its not exactly an RPG.

there is also Monster Hunter Tri, but if you are getting a 3DS or have one already , it will be re-released with added stuff soon.



Who says you can find Fire Emblem at $20? That game was discontinued a long time ago, and used prices may very well be above the game's original MSRP

Though i'm saying that with zero research into the matter, i do remember that happening to the GameCube Fire Emblem



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Shiren the Wanderer is supposed to be a decent dungeon crawler.



Love and tolerate.

Tales of Symphona: Dawn of the New World- If have not beat the 1st one buy that and play it on your Wii (It was a GC game) those two games have very fun action RPG combat, and epic story lines. The other ones you named seem like good choices. Fire Emblem was very good, also you can play the GC one again (or for the 1st time?).

Yes, I'm very aware that Zelda is NOT an RPG.  Some think that, and I mentioned it to help ensure no one suggests it to me.  I do have Fragile Dreams, and Muramasa is on my Amazon Wish list.  Arc Rise Fantasia, I'll look into it.

- Rune Factory: Frontier
- Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny
