Hey guys since the outlook for the rest of the year is pretty bleak until Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword and Kirby, I am wondering what you guys are playing on the wii or if your wii is collecting dust in your room.

I actually busted the wii out after a couple months break to go back and play some gamecube games. I beat Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventure, and I'm currently playing Pikmin 2.

I might go pick up Lost in Shadows eventually.

That sounds great. I have yet to use the Virtual Console on the system. I probably should, but I want to see how Nintendo will deal with the issue about transferring those games over to the Wii U.

I've been playing Conduit 2's online when alone. If I'm playing with others, it is usually Grand Slam Tennis, Boom Blox or Kirby's Epic Yarn.

Tons of Goldeneye online. I've been playing Donkey Kong County 2 and still need to finish it, and then for some reason I've had Chrono Trigger downloaded for like 3 weeks now and still haven't started it, should probably do that. Finally, Kirby's Epic Yarn co-op with my bro.

last summer I was quite addicted to animal crossing until the stupid broken grass erosion mechanic killed a lot of my grass.

A while ago, I continued playing through my file on Little King's Story. I beat the second and third bosses, and then started doing random side-quests to get money and get upgrades for my town and followers. Recently, I decided to put that off a bit longer, so that I could progress with Muramasa: The Demon Blade. After level-grinding a while, I finally beat a boss that I was stuck on and moved on.

Which is good because I've put more money into the VC than the Wii cost in the first place. :P

Playing Metroid 3 and Goldeneye's online. Both are very fun. Truth be told I have alot of back library to go. Epic Mickey, Donkey Kong Returns and Twilight Princess are all on my list to play before I sell my Wii.

Haha I completely love casual games too, I'm not even embarrassed to admit that Just Dance 2 is some of the most fun I've had on the Wii ;)

Have played Conduit 1 and 2, Goldeneye, Super Mario Bros Wii, Red Steel 2, Grand Slam Tennis, and Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings (environmental combat is a blast) and am planning on playing more Tiger Woods, Donkey Kong Country Returns, and Epic Yarn.

Catching up and completing everything I didn't buy from 09 and 10. Sin & Punishment and Flingsmash (yeah, I know) being the main thing, while jostling for 242 stars on Mario Galaxy 2, 100% on Epic Yarn, and 100% on Donkey Kong Country Returns.

Yep, sometimes being a slow gamer does have its benefits 8)

Planning on beating Twilight Princess this week.

I'm at the Sand Temple right now. Think I could beat it? I'll be playing 3 hours a day for 5 days.

I must admit I haven't played my Nintendo Wii in a while. The lack of games bothers me, but since I want to save money for a 3DS this drought will be sort of productive. :)

I'm doing the same thing I do every summer and rebeat games that either I haven't beaten in a while or only once. I also catch up on any game that I missed out on before.

I finished Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands and I finished up DKCR. I still need to work on LKS (though, I'm largely uninterested.. dunno why), Trauma Team and Sonic Colors. I also want to get Link To The Past and Majora's Mask soon on VC.

Once you start really getting into the game it becomes very addicting. It's one of my favorite games for the wii it's like pikmin in some aspects but 10x's better.

I am also having a lot of trouble getting into this game. I've played 5-7 hours and can't bring myself to go further. I think it's mostly because of the combat mechanics. It plays similarly to Pikmin's except 10x less intuitive. It just frustrates me :(

I ordered Metroid: Other M and Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles and that's expected to arrive tomorrow, so I'll be playing a lot of that

Before that I replayed through Metroid Prime 3, and even went back to some sweet Resident Evil 4. Playing through a game you haven't touched in ages is amazing

I've been playing my Wii more than my PS3 lately. Especially with Final Fantasy III and Majora's Mask (since I beat Zelda Ocarina 3D :P )
