What game should I get for my Wii first?

Want to know about a game? Should we buy that new upcoming release? Post your thoughts on new games and ones you have...so others can know whether to buy it or not! All non-SWBF, non-modding topics should go here.

Which game is better? (I already know "Twilight Princess" is the best, that's why it isn't on here!)

All that you find on Xbox Live are spoiled children who want the Banshee and an energy sword and will scream into their earpiece until they get it.

Stick with the Wii, interatctive games, Zelda (may be slow at first but the ending bosses are great), Wii Sports (very fun, just keep your arms away from people's kneecaps while playing, trust me, I know from experience), and the Virtual Console, all of my favorite (and hard to come by) games from the past.

Ah that my be so....but the games for 360 are WAAAAAAAY better (imnsho) AND windows live came with Vista, which unites all 360 and comp gamers around the world.

(plus with a 360, you wont have to worry about your controler smashing a hole on your TV :lol: )

But if you MUST have your Wii.........


.......I know no games worth getting till the next Super Smash Bros.

Well first of all, there are very good Wii games out there. Wii may not be "kill everyone games", but that doesn't mean you won't have fun. Wii Sports. So, it doesn't have good graphics. So, it's boring single player. Ever played multiplayer? You basically kill yourself laughing and having fun. Multiplayer boxing, is 100% the best game I've ever played. I could play it for hours.
Second of all, if you have the new improved Wii straps(free) and you're WEARING them, then that will definitely not happen.
Third of all, you're basically saying get a 360 and then when SSBB and a whole bunch of other amazing games(I'm not saying there aren't good games out right now), you wish that you had gotten a Wii because of all the cool games.

And remember, I'm not saying AT ALL that the 360 sucks. I actually enjoy the 360(and PS3) a lot as well. But why trash talk the Wii?

*'hem*

Got anything else to say?

wii has some fun games, so does 360 but when i dont have time to wait for menus to load, games to load, and people are over and want to "hit the ground running" and play a laugh with many friends instantly kind of game, Wii wins hands down. I have had girls who would never even look at a 360 game get up and kick my #$% in a Wii game.

If your still into waiting for load screens, waiting for laggy menus, just to play either alone with good graphics or online with laggy 12 year olds (screaming at each other with the force of captain A.d.d and his evil cohort i.Q 5) then 360 is all yours!

notes on 360 games
RainblowSex :vegas is crap compared to GRAW2 and Gears of War made me want to play quake 1 and eat crack.

Also note: anyone who actually broke their tv using a Wii must be the same person that makes us have to see all these "Ghey" epiliepsy warnings before the games start. Those people are the ones drowning while drinking water from a glass. mmmmmm.

PrinceXizor, this topic is called 'What game should I get for my Wii first', not '360s rule how can I sell my Wii and get one?' :wink:

My grandparents searched a long time for the Wii! (Emphasizing on "Long"!)
I'm insulted!

I think he refers to guys here who prefer the PC (why not MAC?) and Xbox over the other systems. This is getting nowhere since Xizor doesn't seem to recall big launches that will make the Wii survive this console/PC war (It's not just Xbox, PS, and Nintendo :P ).

The graphics aren't the best from what I've seen but it's a lot better more advanced than the Gamecube's. That at least makes me happy. Also, the interactive and some unique gameplay can make up for the decent online capability Nintendo is still behind with.

And FCOL, Pokemon Battle Revolution is said to be the first online game. That is a step ahead of the previous pokemon stadium games. Also, I hear a Bust-A-Move is coming, allowing 8 players to destroy many colorful bubbles. :P

Finally, I still see Wii games with a lot more variety of genres than the PCs, maybe MACs, Playstations, and Xboxs.

I agree completely with Droideka88. Don't get Wii play unless you need a Wiimote.

@Droideka88: Are you a Mac user? I'm not calling you out I'm just wondering. I can say that I've seen more Macs games lately.

Yes PBR will be the first online, infact it's already released in Japan. I heard it's great for Nintendo's first Console venture online but there's like 2 secs of lag between menus. No big for little kids and for gameplay, but when 3rd party developers have games where 2 secs of lag make a difference then there will be trouble.

@Guru: Are you going to allow the exchange of Wii codes here at GT?

I'm not a MAC user. Many years ago, my parents had a Machintosh computer with some creative games. I wanted to play Super Muncher badly back in the old days.

For some reason, I don't hear a lot about MAC games being developed as much as PCs. I mean sure, there are some companies that import games from the PC to MAC but what about the other way around??

Also, I guess one of my problems with the PC world is if they're only referring to Windows Games and not much of Linux or MAC. For some reason I usually think there are some people who think PC Games are only Microsoft/Window games. After all, the PC is really Windows/MAC/Linux games since all three software companies work on computers right???
