I suddenly have a Wii in my house! :O

New Super Mario Bros Wii is the best 2D Mario, so you really can't go wrong with that. Some might argue that Super Mario Bros 3 or Super Mario World are better, but no matter what it is a superb game.

Galaxy is also an excellent game, but in my opinion didn't have the re-playability that Mario 64 had. The game doesn't really allow you to explore as much since most of the planets are small. 3D mario's also doesn't really allow for speedruns through stages like 2D marios, and you can typically just walk around badguys which I tend to enjoy jumping on. A great game, and a must play experience but I'd take NSMBWii over it any day.

Super Paper Mario is the weakest of the Mario experiences on the Wii, but still a fun title. It has the least amount of replay value due to having excessive amounts of text. It is a 2D/3D platformer with minimal RPG elements. If you can only buy 2 and you aren't looking for a unique experience, then I'd pass on this.

There are a lot of other great games available too, like Punch-Out!!, Mario Strikers Charged, Mario Kart, Brawl, and more, but rather than just list games, if you tell me what genre you are interested in, or if there are any games in my collection you are interested in I can give you a pretty detailed view on the games. Most the games (not all of them) in my collection are worth a purchase.
