I have to respectfully disagree with you, as a hardcore gamer I was quite satisfied with nintendo last year and the sales of those games you listed arent not bad sales, most of those games sold a million units. It is true that they went for the core gamer and there wasnt a megahit but that doesnt mean they should only go for arcade-like titles just to make huge profits. I think they should make games for both audences but try to keep them separated that way they can still make huge profits and keep the core audience happy.


Why should they be kept separate?

The best games on Wii were bridge games like NSMBWii and Mario Kart. Everyone who appreciates games know that.


Well I liked NSMBwii and mariokart but I wouldnt put them above Super mario galaxy 2, sin and punishment 2 ,Tatsunoko vs capcom ,no more heroes or even metroid other M. The reason for me is originality, NSMBwii is the same game we have been playing for years. Everyone who play videogames should know something new and fresh is way better than more of the same. Now if they come with new ideas implemented in bridge titles, then I will agree with you. And if you own a wii and you think mariokart is the best it can do then you should go out and buy some more games as there are plenty better.

But Super Mario Galaxy and Galaxy 2 IS more of the same too. And the multplayer in NSMB made for far more interresting situations than the gravity of Galaxy. How is Galaxy 2 original?

It's my opinion that Mario Kart, NSMBWii, DKCR, and Epic Mickey, and SSBB are the best games for Wii at the moment. I have of course played a lot more, out of the more niche, hardcorish games, Muramasa is my fauvorite.

MG2 is more original because of its incredible level design and amazing amount of ideas that make the  game feel quite different than SMG1. Thats one of the reasons it got a 10 in plenty of gamesites. NSMBW has a great multiplayer but the level design is not even close to Super Mario World or Yoshis Island so for me it did not felt that great.

Of course I wont judge your taste in games but in my book its better to give the best of wii position to games like Monster Hunter Tri, No More Heroes or Silent Hill Shattered Memories rather than games like SSBB, NSMBW and MKW because the latter have already been made and they do little to change themselves from their predecessors while the first are experiences I just didnt had in my super nintendo or gamecube days and make the Wii truly special at least for me. I do agree that DKCR and even epic mickey to some extent can enter this cathegory as they are different than the games that paved their way.
