The one that comes to mind most? Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 2. I don't like DBZ but I had heard the controls were fun so I gave it a try. Glad I did too. Now I can't wait for DBZ:BT3 with online play!

 I'm actually pretty excited about DBZ:BT3.  I liked Tenkaichi 2 for the most part (only thing I really didn't like was it made you sit a certain distance from the sensor bar) and it sound like they really listened to what people said and improved on everything people griped about.



Yes, I have become addicted to buying Wii games. I used to be so conservative buying. Elebits, Godfather, Blazing Angels, WiiPlay, Big Brain (on a home console), PoP and Red Steel I never would have bought with traditional control schemes.

I own 13 Wii games, that is more than I have ever bought in a year at full price. Actually I don't think I have ever owned so many for one console at one time (trade ins) except NES or Atari 2600.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

Hey so I finally picked up a Wii yesterday. My roommates loved Wii Sports and played it for 3 hours. I need to pick up something to tide me over till Metroid Prime Corruption comes out. I'm thinking maybe Resident Evil 4 seeing as I've never played it before. I also want a party game and am considering Mario Party 8 even though the ratings suck. Anyone have these games and can give me some feedback. I am now a Wii/360. Best of both worlds.

I would reccomend Rayman Raving Rabbids or Wario Ware before Mario Party. RE4 was absolutely awesome on GCN, I just can't bring myself to buy it again at $30, but many people say it is worth it. If you want to play some trippy stuff Elebits is fun, once you get over the voice acting (level builder is cool)

Yes, Rabbids Party, Dragon Quest Swords, Excite Truck, Elebits, Swing Golf Panya, Yawaraka no Atama Juku (aka Big Brain Academy), Sonic, Made in Wario and WII Sports. Also Donkey Kong Taru Jet Race. With normal controls I most likely would never have bought these games. So thanks to the WII controls my WII collection is quite expending or else would have been very slim. I think with normal controls my WII collection would have been about 4 or 5 games only, instead of 18.

Arghh... I have to go buy more games.  No one on these boards can have more than me... eh, DQ:S, DK Jet, aren't out yet here... plus I traded in 4 games. 

Wiigirl, do you agree that motion controls in general just make you forget about all the money? (edit I have spent US$1130 on Wii (including tax) for 17 games. 

I have spent $990 on PS3 and have no games currently (I traded in the four for 11 PS2 games). 

I spent $790 on 360, and don't have a system to show for it (I traded in the brick and the games for the deposit for my launch Wii, this was before the Warranty extension.)

yes, RE4:Wii... although regretting slightly since I don't react fast enough...

 I might be taking more than I bargained for or hanging here too long, but I can inform you that WiiGirl plays imported games from japan and have a Japanese regioned Wii.

 



I am a PC gamer, and also have a NDS now, but without access to a Nintendo Wii until End of 2007.

Currently playing: Super Smash Brothers Brawl(Wii), Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer(DS), Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime (DS), WiiFit(Wii)

Games Recently Beaten: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King (Normal; Very Hard after the next DLCs become available)

1 word: RTFA

I wasn't questioning Wiigirls authenticity, I was just saying I don't import or live in Japan.
