Try getting Strikers Charged!

Never heard of it. If you don't mind me asking, what is it, and what makes it so awesome?

Super Mario Galaxy is a must. Okami is also an amazing single-player experience very much like Zelda, if that's your thing, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better game.

Well, I agree so much I immediately bough SMG! :D As for Okami, I have it on PS2. Is it much better on Wii? Better enough to play again? Is there extra levels or sections or whatever? I like the game, but playing it again without much reason to do so doesn't strike me as much fun.

Okami, Zack & Wiki, and for the kids Madworld.

God, that was a joke, plz don't buy it!

Zack and Wiki I know nothing about. Can anyone give me an idea here? Madworld, on the other hand, I know a fair bit about, and have considered; anyone here with the game have a strong opinion on it either way? I like the premise, and the art style, but is the game any good?

Honestly, is freaking awesome. What makes it like that? Gameplay + Online. Offline in this game is non-existing. But the gameplay allows you so many possibilities, different styles of play, tricks to master, etc, that if you're in to it, you won't even notice.

I have arround 650 hours of gameplay in MSCF and I can tell you that's with much pleasure I pick him up at least once a week.

Its not for the kids, but my fav Wii game right now is Bully. LOTS of fun

Yeah, I know Bully, but never got around to picking it up on PS2. Is the Wii version any different? Worth buying instead of PS2 version?



Around the Network

Zack and Wiki is a pure puzzle game, point and click adventure. There are various stages with one central puzzle and you have to find items and solve other puzzles to get to the end of the stage. Take a look at some videos on IGN.



Trauma Center and New Blood are really fun

Punch Out is amazing

Klonoa is a great platformer

So, after spotting a Wii on the cheap today, I bought one. I now have two controllers, Wii Fit, Sports, and Play, and SSBB. What other titles would you suggest are essential? I have two young kids, me (a big kid), and my wife, (also a big kid).

I've seen a lot of Nintendo games mentioned, and I agree with them all. Including Okami, and Zak and Wiki (Though it's not a game for everyone, but if you like point and click puzzle adventured, do it to it!) Not sure if anyone mentioned RE:4 for Wii, but it's a must. Game still holds up, and again the controls are just perfect for that game.

I do like point and click when I'm in the mood, so, suddenly, Zack and Wiki's looking fairly good. And RE:4; I should have thought of that myself! Does it really work that well? Are the graphics upgraded at all?

Mario Kart Wii (4-player for 4 kids)
Endless Ocean (Scuba diving glory)
Secret of Mana (Virtual Console, 3 player Coop)

Endless Ocean sounds interesting, oddly. What's it all about? Is it any good? And Secret of Mana: anyone tell me what that's about? I'm always up for co-op fun, although I only have 2 of Wiimotes so far.

Zak and Wiki
No More Heroes
Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles
Little King Story (kids friendly)
SMG
Overkill (my favourite game again right now)
Pikmin Series (kids friendly)
MP series
Korinpa (kids friendly and seriously underrated title)
Excite trucks (kids friendly)
Mario Kart (kids friendly)
Broken Sword (great game if you like point & click)

Wii Ware (all kids friendly)
World of Goo
Lost Winds
Toki Tori
Dr Mario


Lots of words, many of which mean nothing to me. Any reasons those titles stand out? What genres are they? What makes them so good? Yes, I'm an utter noob.
