Underrated and overrated Wii games

What games for wii do you feel are underrated? Which games do you find overrated?

For underrated games, I would say the following games don't receive enough credit:

Wii Sports

Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles

Elebits

Call of Duty 3

De Blob

The Bigs

House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return

Mario & Sonic at the olympics

Zack & Wiki

Victorious Boxers Revolution

As for games I think get too Much credit:

Super Smash Brothers Brawl

Super Mario Galaxy (to some extent, still mostly fun game)

Trauma Center

Resident Evil 4

Mario Kart Wii

Blast Works

Metroid Prime 3

Rayman Raving Rabbids 1 and 2

Probly more.

What's your list?

Underrated: Dragon Quest SWORDS

Overrated: Brawl

Baroque, guilty on both accounts.

The people who have not heard of it just end up getting over-educated by those who have merely delved into its surface. Causing a sale on hype alone.

Those who play for much longer will start to wish the title read "Shin Megami Tensei: the cheap game where you don't reset after dying." Which is what I playfully call the "no good rpg's on Wii" forum topic creator.

Also, Mercury Meltdown Revolution, hands down best budget game of 2007.

Over rated:

Metroid Prime 3.

Under rated:

Endless Ocean.

Overrated:
Brawl (great game, but it just isn't as fun unless you're playing with another human opponent [online sucks ass])

Underrated:
Star Trek Conquest

Red Steel (honestly, not a bad game. people just expected more because it was the first game with sword fighting)

Farcry (fun multiplayer, crappy single player)

Need for Speed Carbon (I have so much fun with this game but nobody seems to like it as much as me.. lol)

I liked Carbon too, it was a solid racing game. :)

Underrated: NFS Carbon - count me as number 3 guys

Geomtery Wars Galaxies

Okami

Overrated: Zack & Wiki - IMO even if it isn't the popular one

I'd have to say the Brawl is overrated (though still fun).

underrated:

-NFS Carbon (i guess im 4th)(i thought this game was great. good graphics, especially the cutscenes. good story. great racing. controls work nicely.. i dont see why people have a problem with it)

-Zelda TP (this game gets way too much hate)

-Fire Emblem RD (not much hate on this one, but it gets no credit either)

overrated:

-SSBB (great game, but its not as good as the others were)

-SMG (maybe its just me, but i just cant get into this game)

- MP3 (have any of you played MP1 recently? its so much better than 3. i cant get into it anymore since i replayed 1)

to the tc: how the hell is RE4 overrated???

I dont see that Wii Sports is underated. Almost everybody says its a good game.

Underrated:

COD3 and Redsteel were not that bad.

Overrated:

Brawl

As for games I think get too Much credit:
Trauma Center
What's your list?BobbyBobby85

Also a little tip to the TC, you can avoid double spacing in the GS forums by pressing Shift + Enter.

Overrated:Not sure.

Underrated:Red Steel.

Underrated - Battalion Wars 2

Overrated - No More Heroes

underrated: Fire Emblrm. Fire Emblem is my favriote Wii game so far. It's that great.Ultamite-Ninja

Overrated: Elebits, good game, but I got bored fast.

Underrated: Redsteel, I liked it , it deserved a better score.

No More Heroes is also overrated.

I hate it (sorry)

As for overrated games I will have to say:

Okami-I'm sorry, but I thought the controls were just horrible. Cool game, but the controls were not working out for me. I liked the story and all, but the controls forced me to get rid of the game.

No More Heroes-okay this is actually one of my most favorite games, but giving it a 9 our of 10 was an overrated rating.

As for underrated:

Zelda TP-it gets too much hate. It is the best Zelda yet.

Fire Emblem RD- Great game. Yeah not up to par on many of the graphics, but a great game. 6 out of 10? Please...

Mario Kart Wii-okay this game just didn't seemed to be given the credit it deserves.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption-8.5? I hear lots of good things about, and have played it. Please explain to me how NMH gets and 9 and MP3 gets an 8.5.

Alot of these things are based on scores, but also on what people say about them.

Overrated:

Metroid Prime 3

Legend of Zelda TP

Underrated:

Elebits

Mario Strikers

Mario Kart

Underrated: NFS Carbon (that'll make me #5). I thought it was a great, solid racing game, and I enjoyed playing it.

Overrated: None so far. Any game that gets a ton of hype on this console deserves it.

Overrated: Zack and Wiki, Mario Kart Wii

This...

[O]verrated games:
Okami - [T]he controls were just horrible.Amvis

Overated:

Okami was way overated, it was way too easy and the controls sucked.

MoHH2 5 levels for multiplayer no split-screen and the crappiest shooter campaign ive ever played = FAIL. online was good despite the setbacks it was not a 8 "great" game.

underrated:

TP: wow this game blows me away every time i play it. the story is so deep and the writing is amazing. even though it was a bit on the easy side combat was fun and AI's were descent the only problem is you have way too much health.

NFSC: it was great but hard to get into because the controls were horrid for beginners. but if you got good it was quite fluid

Redsteel: even though single player was laking multiplayer was pretty good.

Overrated games were definetly Brawl and Elebits. I personally hated Elebits.

Underrated games were Red Steel, Wario Land: Shake It, and De Blob. I loved all 3.

Honestly if one more person says that Metroid Prime 3 is overrated Im gonna scream. That game is damn near perfect and it deserves the score it got. The only bad thing about it is that it doesn't have that classic Metroid feel to it. Otherwise it's just as good, if not better then Metroid Prime 1.ColonialMustard

Agreed. How on earth can this poor game be considered overrated? It got next to no advertising. Barely anyone knows about it and has played it. And the few review sites for "mainstream gamers" that did review it were supremely unfair:

Ultimately, gamers looking for a well paced, thrill-a-minute shooter with a compelling narrative are going to be disappointed. "Halo" this ain't.

...

In addition to being borderline nonsensical, "Metroid Prime 3" is also difficult. It has the audacity to say, "Welcome to this strange place. Now go figure it out." Much of the game consists of groping around strange places, puzzling out devices, and traveling back and forth to find new powers, which serve also as "keys" to get to previously unreachable areas.

The locations fold in on themselves in ridiculous unlikely ways, like an alien funhouse, honeycombed with secret doors and shortcuts. It's two parts frustration and one part immensely satisfying "A-ha!" moments, having more in common with the "Myst" games than shooters like "Halo."

...

Too much of the time, though, "Metroid Prime 3" is more tedious than epic. This is particularly true of the boss battles, which are exhaustive affairs requiring dedication, patience, and most importantly, a familiarity with the vocabulary of videogames: double jumping, circle strafing, shooting weak points for massive damage, etc.

Variety Magazine

*dies inside*

brawl is not overrated people.

Anyways, mario kart wii to a slight extent is overrated.

marvel: ultimate alliance is slightly underrated, for it is a decent game. Not great, but decent.

brawl is not overrated people.wiifan001

*looks at avatar* Not surprised...

The lack of justice list:

Overrated:

- Thrillville Off the Rails

- WarioWare Smooth Moves

Underrated:

- Excite Truck

- Mario Party 8

- Zelda twilight princess

- Harry Potter 5

- Wii Play (the game actually costs 10 dolars, think in wiiware games that cost 1000 wii ponts; wii play is better than a lot of them).

Underrated: Fire Emblem, Metroid Prime 3, Super Paper Mario and Boom Blox.

Overrated: None at the moment.

Under:The Conduit

Over: Brawl

A lot of poeple say The conduit will bomb, But Im thinking if its not good, maybe the sequel will be.

Brawl, on the other hand, SSE and Wi-Fi aren't that well designed, and its not fun playing without friends.

There aren't that many overrated games for the wii. Most games with hype usually deserve it like brawl for instance. Its a really fun game and i don't get why some people don't like some of the things about it and then decide to not like the game.

As for underrated games:
-Okami
-NFS Carbon
-Red Steel (it had its flaws but it was still enjoyable)

Overrated: Brawl.

Underrated: Mario and Sonics at the Olympics.

Overrated: WarioWare, Rayman Raving Rabbids

Underrated: SSX Blur

No More Heroes is also overrated.

I hate it (sorry)

bbeastieboy

Oh yeah, I forgot about that one. It is indeed overrated.

underated: SSX blur, mp3, zack and wiki, nights, twilight princess

Overated: mlb power pros, bloom blox, guitar hero/rock band

Underrated:mario kart

Overated:mario galaxy

Wow; Brawl hate. Well, not hate, but overall feel of overrated-ness. Not from me; online is bad sometimes but to me it's tons of fun; I play it every day, never get bored of it.

Now, this will sound crazy, but it's true:
Underrated: The Dog Island - No, it's not one of thoxe 'Petz' titles, it's sort of like a very passive Zelda title, without the epicness. It's alright.

Under rated: Godfather: Blackhand Edition, Excite Truck, Batallion Wars 2, Red Steel, Twilight Princess (the only 3D Zelda I've enjoyed), MP3, House of the dead 2&3

Over rated: Smash Bros Brawl (the game did nothing for me), Mario Kart Wii (ditto), Medal of Honour: Heroes 2.
