Which Wii Game Should I Get Next?
« on: February 11, 2008, 06:32:14 PM »
I looks like I'll have some time to play video games next weekend. I want to pick up something new for my Wii to help it justify itself.

I've narrowed down my options to a number of top contenders. I'm interested in what other people's opinions are.

DEFINITELY Super Mario Galaxy.
It's an excellent game and definitely one of the most fun ones I've played for the wii.

That's all kids games man! How about Resident Evil 4?!

RESIDENT EVIL 4, if you feel like a raw, adult game ( I can't stand Mario games now, I probably I outgrew them). That said, if you like rocket launchers, crazy villager people, being on suspense while you play, stuff being blown up and feeling like a badass; this game is for you. Storyline, graphics, controls, gameplay and even the SOUND is top notch. You're not doing yourself any good if you own a Wii, and DON'T own this game.

After you beat the core game, there's also plenty of extras. Two "expansion packs"; Seperate Ways and Assignment Ado, along with a movie mode, and Mercenaries (the time-killing non-stop shooter). You'll have plenty of fun with the extras, I guarantee that. Plus, beating these extras unlocks more things like costumes, not to mention the CORE GAME ITSELF demands a reply in my eyes.

This game has been ported from system to system (including PC), so that should tell you something about the demands of this game. The Wii controls puts you in the action. BUY THIS GAME! With a $30 price tag, you can't go wrong with it!

That's not out here yet.

I already have Resident Evil 4, though it never grabbed me for some reason.

for a mature game, no more heroes is your choice.

Difficult question.

I'm one of the few who was kinda disappointed with Mario Galaxy. The camera view is annoying, some elements seemed kinda childish, controls weren't accurate enough for my taste (but that might be the case with all the wii games, which if you're used to playing on a wii shouldn't be a big issue probably). However, you can see that they spend a lot of time on this game and it'll entertain you for quite some time.. plus the resale value will be good in any case  :lol:

Mario Strikers Charged is very boring, I wouldn't recommend it. There's some cool elements in it, but the whole game is highly repetitive. Even when playing with friends it gets boring pretty soon.

I haven't played the other games in your list, so I can't comment on those.

Actually, now that I think of it, I would recommend Super Paper Mario. I had much more fun playing this than Galaxy.

I thought I was the only one to think Galaxy wasn't all that great. I personally think it was a polished form of Sunshine or 64 with a few extras things included and excluded. The one thing that irked me the most was the fact that most of the game was linear, hence no free-roaming around the level. It would've been nice if we could fly on our own without preset path star trails. But what's been made can't be changed -_-

Oh yes, I would suggest Metroid Prime 3
Don't expect me to reply to any post. I tend to not care.

I ended up picking up No More Heroes today. I'll try to borrow Mario Galaxy from a friend who has it.

Thanks for the advice all!

I'm not leaving this thread till you beat Resident Evil 4. And if you think I'm kidding; yeah- that's what this guy thought.

Pretty fun. I had to do a report last night, so I only played the intro part.

It's fast paced, good voice acting, nice modern art graphics and it uses the Wiimote pretty well. I'll post more fulsome impressions when I get a chance to play it some more.

@Meowchi: I suppose I should go and give it another try. I feel guilty about buying games and not playing them anyway.
