That Wii game you regret buying

Metroid prime: Corruption. It's just my opinion, but i thought it really sucked. Badly.

Well, i know i'm gonna get flamed anyways. :D

What specifically didn't you like about it?

Far Cry Vengeance, Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 2, Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3, Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz, Sonic and the Secret Rings, Metroid Prime 3, Resident Evil 4, Super Mario Galaxy...vashkey

Wow, that's a fairly big list. Although, the ones I've played (Sonic, MP3, RE4, SMG), I couldn't agree with you on any of them. But that's just me :P . Different tastes :) .

Im just an Evil picky jerk really.

Sonic and the Secret Rings is just not the type of Sonic game I would like. Prefer conrolling the hedge hog by analog stick and Dpad rather than him be set on auto run.

Metroid has to much back tracking for my taste

I hate re's cut sceenes and the game just isnt all to interesting to me

and Galaxy was way to short, linear and uninnovative to me. I didn't have any reason to go back and play after I beat it and there wasnt as much freedom to explore the level and stuff as there was in Shunshine and 64. And it just didn't feel much different from 64 to me.

Like I said, Im just evil and picky.

Well it takes all kinds to make the world go around, at least you can count yourself in the minority on those games, that's something right?;)

Far Cry Vengeance, Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 2, Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3, Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz, Sonic and the Secret Rings, Metroid Prime 3, Resident Evil 4, Super Mario Galaxy, No More Heroes...vashkey

So... which games did you like, out of curiosity? :P

We purchased the Wii for our kids last Christmas, not thinking the adults would get into it. We were completely wrong. We have tried to update our our library to include several titles and games. Here's my opinions on them.

Most Overrated (or hyped up) - Sonic & Mario Olympic games - to me it seemed repetitious and quite boring. Lacked something that most Mario games have. and Definitely, not worth $50

Game Party, Championship Boxing, Spiderman 3, Fantastic 4, Shrek, TMNT, Tamagotchi Party on, M&M Racing, Bomberman Land these were picked up a cheap price....However, I am fairly certain, in MY OPINION, not worth it.

MP8 - great family game, can get boring quickly though.

SMGalaxy - fun game for kids, and some adults. Spent several hrs trying to beat it.

GH3 - one of the best games. Musically challenged people would enjoy if they grasped concept. (I say, because I am one, it took a few hrs of practice and training to catch on. Hey, but now I can get 100% no prob)

Raving Rabbids 1 & 2 - initial reaction was disgust, but finally started finding them humorous, and entertaining. But, they did sit for 4 mths without being opened.

Simpsons - silly game, but fun for adults. Not children though.

Thrillville - its fun, but can get old.

Playground - once you get the hang of the controls, dodgeball becomes fun. Especially for those competitive adults.

Carnival - I loved it, but it was the first game played on wii. Great game for the younger kids.

Hannah Montana - entertaining for kids that are into her.

Smash Brothers Brawl - still too new to rate for me.

Endless Ocean - haven't played yet, but seems like a fairly worth while game.

Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles - Ehh, not the same as original, but not bad either.

Hannah Montana - entertaining for kids that are into her.

That...sounds...sooooooo...wrong.Really wrong.

Anyway.None.If I have to pick one it would be Mario Galaxy,tho.IDK...the camera and controllers are annoying and it's just not all that great as everyone else says.I really think Super Paper Mario is way funnier and cooler than SMG...

Good lord, do you just buy every game that you see? Do you ever buy...I don't know...good games?

Metroid Prime 3. I just can't play the game for more than 10 minutes. On the other hand I could play SSBB for hours at a time.

Pokemon battle revolutuon! sucks if dont have diamon or pearl 4 ds but i didnt buy it it was my brother.! and people ho said mario galaxy or mp3.! Are u insanes.!?

no games really except strikers i got bored of the same thing over & over againhelius06

mario party 8 horribly only 4 boards=crap

I would have to say sonic and the secret rings - thought the multiplayer was kinda fun but single player felt slow

also got bored of strikers really fast.

Red Steel, it's really fun, and I loved playing to to be honest, but I just haven't played it enough.Bluestorm-Kalas

Thankfully I research all my games thoroughly so I'm satisfied with all my purchases so far.Jaysonguy

Same here.

I have at least 3 games I don't want right now.

* Rayman Raving Rabbids (I agree that it's overrated)

*Wii Play (An unplayable mess)

* Cooking Mama (Gets REALLY broing after a bit)

[QUOTE="wiifan001"]

None.

Among the 8 Wii games I have I only bought 2 (Zelda TP and Brawl) and I regret nothing, not even Marvel: Ultimate Alliance even though it did have quite a few flaws.

Fixed

wiifan001

Oh yeah, it had a bunch of flaws, especially to people who played the predecessors (i.e. X-Men Legends 1 & 2), but it was still a lot of fun and the motion controls added a lot once you got the hand of the connections between motions and common types of powers.

I have just purchased the Wii recently so my collection is very low... but i have tried out red steel... controls are horrible.... would shake my head at the thought of fumbling with my wii at home :(

Depending on your tastes, I would recommend No More Heroes (if you're ready for the odd), SMG for a super smooth platformer, and most people recommend MP:3 for a FPS-type game.

This is actually a very good thread

While I can honestly say I agree with none of the games and none of the reasons it's nice to know that the games that people aren't liking are just as diverse as the ones they are liking.
