Dissapointed by the lack of oh my god that cool games for wii!

im new to a nintendo wii, but ive bought some games done some research and im really annoyed by the fact that theres only a limited selection of games with a good competitive multiplayer. The conduit does not appeal to me one bit i dont really like sci fi. But the grinder that sounds like my type of thing with some good online co-op and multiplayer cant wait, but experiencing cod 4 on 360 you just know that wii is starting to pwn lol.

but damn, 3 years after the release of the wii and its only just getting into some heavy online gaming to me thats just stupid, why hasn't any studios produced a good wii game other than a bunch of mini games that can be found on the internet in flash game form?

you must be a picky gamer including downloaded games i have over 60 games and at least 50 of them are greatelbert_b_23

Im just saying that there arent alot of epic games out there, most are just childrens games, or mario games. i think that some developer needs to step up and start making amazing wii epics.

I don't know I have 15 games for the Wii and plan on getting 3 more for Christmas and alot next year. I usually only get around 15 games for a console in a gen the most I've had was 21 or 22 for the GCN.

Those other systems were designed to be computers that you mostly used to play games with. As such, they were also designed with online multiplayer in mind. The Wii was not.Arc2012

It sounds like your looking for some Online FPSs, if so then you have the wrong console. Try PS3/360/PC instead.

Insanely epic games like Wind Waker, Metroid Prime, Pikmin 2, Paper Mario: TTYD and Resident Evil 4 will probably not come to the Wii, unless the next Zelda, Pikmin and Metroid delivers. The only game for the Wii I think have come close, so far, to the GameCube masterpieces is Super Mario Galaxy.

Video games are about fun. If you want epic, go watch a movie/read a book.

It has wifi so you the Wii can be updated and so you can download games for the VC. Just because it has wifi doesn't mean that it was designed with online multiplayer in mind. Look at all the crap that something like the Conduit had to go through to set up an online multiplayer system.

I've played some pretty "epic" games before, some of them were even on Wii. Games are capable of more than just "fun."

if you're looking for a game that makes you say "Wow!" pick up either Cursed Mountain or Dead Space Extraction. Both of them have really high production values and are a blast to play

Games (not only video games) are supposed to be only fun. That's it. More than that I don't know.

I bought the Wii for the singleplayer games but that's just me. I haven't even hooked my Wii up to even try the online just to download a few games. I think there are a ton of great Wii games but that's just me. Although I'm sure you can find more than five games.. I own multiple systems and I can still find plenty of Wii games to buy. I really need money for Muramasa The Demon Blade as that game looks amazing.

I only haveone game that makes me say, thats the f*****g bomb, andit feels like the developer has put their heart into the game and that game is, Super mario galaxy. i mean its simple but it just defines wii, and what its capable off. But all this 3rd party crap releasing wii carnvial, puppy racing minigames stuff just puts the wii down in my opinion.

Now if you look at another nintendoconsole like gamecube, there were some really good games for it that were brilliant and made it worth owning in my eyes. Games like super mario sunshine and wind waker.

Developers need to open their eyes and see that the wii is capable and deserves some games that actually have the time put into them.

The problem with video games is that they've been more than games for a long time now. The term "game" for something like Shadow of the Colossus or Bioshock is as misleading as calling The Sandman Chronicles a "comic". There are "games" that aren't really games but interactive narratives or worlds. Today, games still have to be fun first, but they've long passed the stage were they're restricted to thoughtless amusement. In the future, as gameplay mechanics and technology evolves further, I can see "games" going beyond the requirement of fun. Films started of as "just fun" but grew and evolved into an artistic medium, literature began as a tool to inscribe law and catalog trade and became an art much later. Just because video games began as games doesn't mean they will stay "games" forever.

New Super Mario Bros Wii. Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom and Monster Hunter Tri is going to help my multiplayer needs.

Yay for local multiplayer games!

Here duder. I've used this list countless times over the past two weeks. it's come in quite handy. This is everyting you need to know:

Games you HAVE to play. For both your gaming man card as well as to justify the Wii for you:

-Metroid Prime 3/Metroid Prime Trilogy
-Super Mario Galaxy
-No More Heroes
-Muramasa: The Demon Blade
-Resident Evil 4
-Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles
-Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess
-Call of Duty: World at War
-The Conduit
-Mario Kart Wii
-Medal of Honor Heroes 2
-De Blob
-Madworld
-Dead Space Extraction
-House of the Dead: Overkill
-Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars
-Deadly Creatures
-Ssx Blur
-Shaun White Snowboarding
-A Boy and His Blob
-Okami

Upcoming Wii games to look forward to:

-Silent Hill: Homecoming
-No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle
-Red Steel 2
-Sin & Punishment 2
-Arc Rise Fantasia
-Pikmin 3
-Legend of Zelda
-Metroid Other M

-The Grinder
-Shaun White Snowboarding: World Stage
-Call of Duty Modern Warfare Reflex
-New Super Mario Bros. Wii
-Super Mario Galaxy 2
-Monster Hunter Tri

Now bear in mind that if you make this thread, and then read that list and the suggestions of the other educated Wii gamers in here who know what they're talking about and give you game suggestions, and then don't play any of these games and listen to our advice...then you won't enjoy any games on the Wii. You won't like the Wii. And it will not be the Wii or Nintendo's fault, but yours for not going and trying these games right now. So I hope you try some of these bro. Trust me you'll be very happy ;)

It sounds like your looking for some Online FPSs, if so then you have the wrong console. Try PS3/360/PC instead.

Scythes777

SilentHill: Shattered Memories, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, Metroid: Other M, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Monster Hunter Tri, Tales of Graces, Red Steel 2, No More Heroes 2, Sin & Punishment 2, Legend of Zelda Wii, Dragon Quest X, The Grinder, Gladiator A.D, Monado: Dawn of the New World, and Fragile.

If these all coming out within the next year or two doesn't please you, I can only say this: Dear God! I'd hate to have your standards!

Please go crawling back to your Xbox 360 for "teh hardcorez" shooters. Despite what you think, this is already the console for real gamers, if what you want is a bunch of generic violent games this is the wrong place.

I only haveone game that makes me say, thats the f*****g bomb, andit feels like the developer has put their heart into the game and that game is, Super mario galaxy. i mean its simple but it just defines wii, and what its capable off.

So the Gamecube has a 3-D Mario game and a Zelda game.

And the Wii has Super Mario Galaxy and Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

Your point?

In addition it has another LoZ coming, New Super Mario Bros. Wii already out.

Would you like me to continue naming good games for it? I can go for a while. Little King's Story, No More Heroes, LostWinds 1 & 2, Metroid Prime 3, World of Goo, Mario Kart Wii, Punch Out!!, Mad World, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Paper Mario, Zack and Wiki: Quest For Barbaro's Treasure, Tiger Woods PGA Tour '10... have I made my point yet?

If not here's a brief comparison of systems:

Number of AAA exclusive games on each system according to Metacritic

Wii- 5

PS3- 4 (5 when Demon Soul's gets up to 90)

Xbox 360- 4

So the Wii has as many if not more "WOW" games than the other two systems.

By oh my god that cool I'll guess you mean AAA and AA games. According to you Super Smash Bros Brawl, Super Mario Galaxy, Wario Ware, World of Goo, Okami, No More Heroes, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Super Paper Mario, The legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Tales of Symphonia, Little King's Story, Punch Out!!, Mario Kart, Zack and Wiki, A Boy and His Blob, Dead Space Extraction, Excitebots, House of the Dead: Overkill, De Blob, Bully: Scholarship Edition, Medal of Honor Heroes 2, Rayman Raving Rabbids, Muramasa, Cursed Mountain, Klonoa, Madworld, Deadly Creatures, Animal Crossing, Wario Land, Fire Emblem, and so on are not enough OH MY GOD THAT COOL GAMES!!! The only reason they aren't like that when they're all great to amazing games is because the wii's not an online system, so when you finish the story in the game you won't play the game much except with friends. If the games were on the 360 you'd be hearing about those games all the time.

Galaxy IS epic. I'd suggest Metroid Prime Trilogy if you haven't picked it up yet.

just keep ur eye out for Metroid: Other M
