Holy cow. Where has the time gone? The Wii came out my first year in college, so I really didn't get to spend as much time with it as I would have liked in its heyday years but I still enjoyed a bunch of great games. Ploughing through Twilight Princess on my Christmas break in 2006 was sure a tight experience! But rather than list my favorite Wii games ('cause lots of people are doing that)—except Super Mario Galaxy, which is just SO GOOD—let mention a couple in my backlog that I haven't gotten to yet.
I've been meaning to play The Last Story for years now but there never seems like a good time to start it. People complain about it but I think it sounds great through and through. Plus it's the most manageable of the Operation Rainfall RPGs (which I own all of and have not played any), so there's little excuse to not play it...you know, other than all these other games. And life.
I played the first level of Zak and Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure and then got distracted by other things. Never got back to it. It's a good showcase for the wiimote. I hope to play all the way through it some time.
Redsteel 2—near 1:1 sword fighting and gunplay. What's not to like? My brother played this and enjoyed it and he's not one much for 3D action. I want to give a whirl at some point.
I have a bunch of other backlogged Wii games (TOO MANY) but those are some at the top of the list. Who else is sporting a respectable pile of shame for the Wii?
Me. I have a whole shelf full of Wii games I need to get to. Zack and Wiki among them.
I didn't really like the Last Story. I gave it a shot, but it just kind of really disappointed me, especially after how great Lost Odyssey was. :(
I haven't play Lost Odyssey (though I own a copy OF COURSE lol), so that shouldn't be a problem. I remember reading the review on 1UP. That's how long it's been since that game came out. 1UP was still a functioning website o_O
ha ha yeah it's been a while!
One game I have for Wii that I really want to play is Okami. I hear nothing but praise for this Zelda-like, so I definitely need to play it! Similar problem with you, though: too many games, so little time.
I have Okami for the PS2. My biggest deterrent is just its length. The game is supposedly more than 40 hours long O_O
Zack and Wiki is amazing. One my favourite games on the Wii
Yeah Zack & Wiki is awesome. Especially considering it came out fairly early in the Wii's lifecycle. To me, it's one of the last Capcom games that had that classic Capcom 'feel,' challenge and personality-wise.
I got a whole mess of wii games tht are among my shame pile. I dub the pile the Shovelware Stand... Just a stack of games on a stand that are just bad, bad, bad. LOL
