Since everyone else is naming the obvious choices to get, I will list some games that are a bit more obscure/not as well known.

First off, definitely check out Wario Land Shake IT!It's one of the best 2d platformers on the system.

Premise: Wario being the greedy anti-hero that he is, sets out on an adventure to free the queen of the shake dimension from the evil shake king! Of course Wario's not doing it out of the good of his heart, Nope! The Shake King has a bottomless coin bag that never runs out of money. So Wario must have IT!

Controls: Like my signature implies, I'm a huge advocate motion controls when done right, and Wario does them right. The game is controlled by holding the wii remote NES style. Basic functions are mapped to the buttons ( i.e running, jumping, pounding )

The motion controls are non gimmicky and actually fit there function quite well. For example when Wario grabs a coin bag, you need to shake the wii remote rapidly to shake the coins out, this actually replicates actually shaking a bag and somehow feels very satisfying.

Graphics: The art style is all hand drawn and it looks absolutely stunning. IMO it's one of the best looking games on the Wii.

Music: The music is incredible. Very varied and catchy. There are a lot of different level themes in this game i.e. ( western, safari, casino, ) and the music fits each perfectly. My favorite track is the Safari it's just so soothing and upbeat.

Level design: One of the most important thing a platformer needs is varied and unique level design. Wario delivers the goods in the aspect. From trains levels to casinos to jungles, forests, and even a few feudal japan style levels. this game has plenty of variety. Each level is also well designed and offers a new gameplay twist/gimmick.

Replayibility: Is pretty high. Every level has a hidden treasures to find and achievements to unlock. Achievements can range from collecting a certain amount of coins in a level, to finding and killing a gold enemy and even speed runs. You unlock music for completing all the challenges in a level.

Overall Wario Land is a very well made game that deserves a bit more credit. If you like platformers definitely check it out :)
