Later in the year I'll try to get a thread going where people can vote for their favorite Wii games (might as well do it for the DS too... but let's wait until Black/White 2 is out ). So don't worry, gamrConnect will be celebrating the Wii in style. ^_^

Anywho, here's some of my favorite Wii moments:

  • The Wait: I camped out 8 hours behind a WalMart for my Wii. I was 28 out of 32 available Wiis. It was so worth it.
  • The Party Console: I've never held a Gaming Party before, but with the Wii, It wasn't hard to get one started. People just gravitated towards the console because of the great party games for the system. It started with Wii Sports, but other series such as Rabbids, Just Dance, Mario Kart, and Smash Bros. made it the console to play when groups were over. Great fun.
  • Galaxy 1&2: The two Super Mario Galaxy games are my favorite of this generation bar none. They're just incredible games with unforgettable experiences. In fact, when I ponder about my favorite game of all time, Galaxy 2 is usually one of 2 games that is at the forefront of that list. Truly incredible.
  • The wait for Smash Bros.: Nintendo created one of the craziest hype machines of all time with the Smash Bros. Dojo. I would wait up every night just to see what update it would announce. And on that one fateful night when Sonic was announced... craziness! Thankfully, the actual game delivered... but that hype was something else.
  • An Empty Wallet: I've bought more games for the Wii then I have for any other console I've ever owned. So many great games, so little time (and money).
  • Double the Zelda Goodness: Twilight Princess at launch? Yes indeed, and it was a brilliant game. Skyward Sword at the console's twilight? What a masterpiece! Zelda delivered this generation... and I can't wait for more.
