Like the title describes, post your favourite opening game sequences. If you liked the opening video or simply something that was stated in the video, post it here and share it with other people. Enjoy! :D

I like the bizarre opening with the wedding in Super paper mario. I also liked the opening cut scene in star wars the force unleashed.

Starting Super Mario World for the first time was pretty cool.

Out of all the Wii games I own, Animal Crossing City Folk. "Why", you may ask? Well, 'cause the music is just so soothing and relaxing. I swear, I felt like I was in heaven the first time I heard that tune on Christmas morning. Such an awesome memory.:)

Ooooh, tough one, my personal fave opening sequence would have to be between Soul Reaver and Painkiller. Painkiller (Where daniel is told he's got to single handedly battle the whole of lucifer's army before he can see his girlfriend again, really sets you up for fragging galore) Soul Reaver (Where Kain literally robs raziel of his former self when he threw him into that precipice to burn for all eternity before being brought back from total dis-illusion by the elder god then is tasked with destroying kain)

Thanks for the reminder! I forgot how cool Soul Reaver was. Definitely the best opening sequence. The series had one of the best endings, too.

Great question!

I'd probably go with Mass Effect or The Wind Waker.

Ooh good one! Baten Kaitos was sick!

I always liked all the Super Smash Bros sequences. especially the first and the brawl ones. they are pretty awsome.

and the mario kart double dash sequence

and the guitar hero 5. i just like the art style and animation a lot.

Its impossible to pick a single favorite. I always watch Twilight Princess' opening scene even though I've seen it over a hundred times because I really like it.

Little confused here, was this suppose to just be Wii games? and was it suppose to be the first cinema scene or the first gameplay sequence. I will stick to the Wii and I will go with the first gameplay sequence. My choice would be Mario Galaxy and Corruption, both had epic opening sequences.

Definitely Super Metroid's opening and it's main theme music!

When I heard the light piano accompaniment at the end of Other M's trailer...it reminded meso much of the 1994 theme at Super Metroid's title screen.

Also (just a little off topic), Super Metroid had the best first level ever! I remember when I first saw Ridley on that first level and how bad ass Ridley's theme song was, then having to escape that space station while the screen tilted from side to side--that was so original back then!

If we're talking Wii only games than I have to go with No More Heroes. Travis narrating everything about The Drifter, the DeathMatch Bar, Sylvia ;), and how we're all in the ride just to see how it's going to end is spectacular!

HOWEVER, for the all-time greatest game opening I have to give it to Quake II for the PC. That opening rocked harder than any in gaming. Ever. Period.

Not many Wii games stand out to me. If this was all time, then there's A LOT. Need for Speed Underground, Onimusha 3, Soul Calibur 2...

I could go on, but these are some of my favorites. I like Wind Waker opening sequence, especially when the violin kicks in with the Zelda theme music.

I really can't pick a favorite, too many to pick from. However, I picked up megaman zx advent for the DS not too long ago and the opening sequenses blew my mind for a DS game, eaisly the best opening sequenses for the console that I have seen.

Here #1

AND #2

I think they're amazing intros considering they're on the DS, I like #1 better.

Twilight Princess has the best Wii intro.

As for non-Wii games I would have to say the Secret of Mana opening.
