So, the experience you get while adventuring in this Zelda title will differ from those of your friends. A Good Match for: Explorers. Another big change to the Zelda formula comes in how Skyward Sword presents its dungeons. The environments around the encounter areas are themselves more puzzle-like than in other LoZ entries, making the experience more seamless and more engrossing. Not for Those Who Want: Imprecise flailing.
A Good Match for: Game-hungry children and their mom or dad who wants to play video games against them. Not for Those Who Want: Online play. A Good Match for: Detectives. The Prime games offer more gameplay by letting you scan the environment for interactive elements, making the exploration aspect almost as fun as all the shooting. Not for Those Who Want: Repetitive stress injuries. Marathon sessions may render players arthritic. This cartoony re-imagination of the old school boxing game has you lacing up the bright green gloves of Little Mac all over again.
Up to four players make their way around a board representing the Kingdom as one of three classes — Rogue, Warrior, and Mage — and try to amass as much wealth as possible in a set number of turns. The game can be played by up to four people controlling four colored Kirbys, or characters like Waddle Dee, King Dedede, and Meta Knight.
Mario Party 8 does offer some remarkably creative boards to play in. But the mini-games are as solid as ever, and the new gameplay holds some surprises even for series veterans. Mario Kart Wii set itself apart by introducing responsive motion controls and bringing competent online multiplayer to the Nintendo racing formula.
And you can add even more race tracks or custom characters with a few nifty mods. Races can completely change in a matter of seconds! I was a bit dubious when I first saw the Wii Sports disc included with every console. I mean, sports? The game features 12 different sports, some of which have 4-player multiplayer. My favorite part about Wii Sports Resort is the somewhat unusual choice of sports.
These include canoeing, wakeboarding, archery, and even swordplay. Now you need to wield the Baton in weird ways throughout countless micro-games to unlock its power or something of the sort.
One of the best parts about this game is that you only need a single Wiimote for up to twelve players to compete in a series of these uncanny micro-games. Whether battling two player or taking Little Mac through the single player mode, this game requires the reflexes of a gazelle. Still, with Mike Tyson hinting at a new Punch Out game for the Nintendo Switch, we might be seeing the big man himself returning to the virtual ring real soon.
Still, the list of characters to battle against is exciting enough without him, and players will relish working their way to the top. Those who love using Little Mac in Super Smash Bros Ultimate can finally see where it all started out for him in this updated, funky-fresh remake. Like Guitar Hero, it requires players to follow on-screen prompts, hitting coloured buttons in time with famous tracks.
The difference with DJ Hero is that players use a turntable, and the tracks are all epic dance tunes from bands like Daft Punk! The DJ Hero Wii Turntable works in the same way as the Guitar Hero remote, but instead of strumming and caning the whammy bar, players scratch a vinyl record while pressing buttons. The good news is that the turntable works for both DJ Hero titles and, unlike the Guitar Hero guitars that look unmistakably like toys, this bit of kit looks really impressive when left out on display.
Rock Band 2 takes the 30th spot in this list of the best Wii games of all time! Keeping on with the playing-along feels, Rock Band brings multiple instruments together including vocals, bass, and drums, making up a real… well, a real Rock Band! Guitar Hero is all well and good, but Rock Band allows drummers, basists, and singers to join the fray too. Rock Band 2 brought newly designed controllers with it, giving users even more control over their chosen instrument.
Well, 84 came with the disc as well as 20 free-to-download tracks. However, over tunes have since been released for the Wii. Whether singing through a USB mic or blasting out beats on the plug-in drum kit, this game is an absolute beast and well worth having in any collection. Bully: Scholarship Edition takes the 29th spot in this list of the best Nintendo Wii games of all time!
For those new to the world of Bully, imagine GTA but set in a school. Developers worried that the violent content would affect sales. Over 1. Gamers take Jimmy Hopkins through Bullworth Academy. This game is jam-packed full of features to explore and NPCs to encounter. Jimmy uses skateboards, go-karts, and bikes, as well as getting around on foot from time to time. The Scholarship Edition features new dialogue, extra missions, better clothes, and lots more fine-tuned elements including the use of Motion Controls.
Okami released for the PS2 back in It follows Amaterasu, a sun goddess that transforms into a magnificent white wolf named Shiranui. Armed with magical abilities, Shiranui must bring life back to a bleak world using the Celestial Brush.
Okami as an elegant title with lots of subtle nuances, exactly the type of thing one might say when looking at a fantastic piece of art! Sonic Unleashed is one of those games that people either love or hate. They love it because it brings a different dynamic to the Sonic franchise, or they hate it for the same reason. I love the fact that Sonic mutates into a Werehog in this game. Well, Egghead Eggman has released Dark Gaia on the world after destroying parts of the earth using his super-duper-Eggman-laser-beam.
Whenever our blue-spiked hero touches Dark Gaia, he becomes the Werehog. Gameplay splits between zooming around epic levels during the day and beating back scores of baddies at a much slower pace at night. Imagine, if you will, Call of duty with Link fighting a boat-load of Skeletons. It boasts Skyward Sword-style graphics with our green-garbed hero mowing down wave after wave of enemies with his trusty weapon.
The game boasts 9 levels with three gameplay styles. Play through Target Shooting, stationary Defender Levels , and Ranger levels where link fights through forests encroaching on an enemy camp.
Face up against Boses, battle mates, and put your skills to the test in one of the greatest series of all time. New Super Mario Bros. Wii brings classic Mario side-scrolling feels to the Nintendo Wii in a new adventure! Control Mario through eight worlds, bouncing on enemies and defeating Bowsers minions in a bid to rescue Princess Peach.
Yoshi makes an appearance, and other features like the Super Guide allow new players to the series to enjoy the game without any stresses.
The action might be in 2. What a way to start off this list of the best Nintendo Wii games! Before Breath of the Wild arrived on the scene, Xenoblade Chronicles was the biggest open-world title on any Nintendo console.
If exploring and collecting games are your bag, then this is the Wii title for you. Players can move through the richly textured world using the Wii Nunchuck Controller and Wiimote. Side quests and enemies are hiding in every corner, and the game even has a day and night system that alters item availability, enemies, and other important factors like abilities and powers.
Xenoblade Chronicles makes use of the standard RPG battle view mode but differs from other titles with a real-time battle control system. Next up is an action role playing title of a very different design though is every bit as exciting to play. Many of our readers may well have finished Paper Mario: Origami King recently. Players are fighting to stop a guy called Count Bleck from destroying the universe, assumably by paper-cutting him into submission.
A lot of people have had mixed feelings over the turn-based battle system in Origami King. For me, Rayman titles are right up there with Mario and Sonic titles as some of the best platform games ever made, and Rayman Origins is a must-have game for any Wii collection.
The side-scrolling levels stay true to the original Rayman and provide up to four players with a captivating adventure. So what is our floating-footed hero up to in the fourth instalment of his series.? As with other Rayman titles, you must rescue Electoons and pick up new abilities along the way if you want to progress. There is plenty of collecting and enemy-stomping action for players to sink their teeth into, along with puzzles to test that grey matter.
The Wii version has been rated highest out of all the major console ports, so grab a copy and try the best of the best! Every Mario Tennis game has brought immense fun to gamers all over the globe, and Mario Power Tennis is certainly no exception. Ok, so we all know which the best tennis game is for the Nintendo Wii, but Mario Power Tennis provides a nice alternative by swapping Mii characters with some of your favourite Mushroom Kingdom faces. Squaring off in a doubles match against Wario and Waluigi never gets old, and the courts are all nicely portrayed along with camoes from other Mario characters watching from the sidelines.
If any readers have played Mario Power Tennis for the Gamecube , then this title is virtually the same. There are 18 different characters to choose from including the unusual tennis opponent Petey Piranha.
Each player has a power shot that they can use, hence the name of the game. The format is similar to Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour and incredibly intuitive for first time gamers.
Pikmin 2 is a game that infuriated me no end, which shows that it certainly had an effect on me. Any game that can make you shout and curse yet still come back for more time and time again is a special one, which is why Pikmin 2 deserves a spot in our list of the best Nintendo Wii games of all time.
Having said all that, I found Pikmin 2 easier to play than the original Pikmin game thanks to the removal of the day time limit. Like the original game, Pikmin 2 sees you controlling Captain Olimar as he explores an unknown planet using Pikmin to do his bidding. This time, Olimar is joined by another spaceman called Louie, and they can take Pikmin around separately as they look for treasure.
But what the heck are Pikmin, I can hear some of our readers shouting? Well, Pikmin are little microscopic plant people that are coloured based on their ability. Olimar can throw Pikmin to retrieve items or send them into battle against enemies. The overworld in Pikmin 2 has fewer enemies than the original game, leaving you to explore and experience the game without as much peril.
But it is a very well-built game that serves as the very first game in the Zelda timeline. New Super Mario Bros Wii is the second entry in the series that brings the classic 2D style to the modern age with up to four-player co-op and more up-to-date graphics. While the games are fairly easy, they are incredibly fun and players will never get tired of new Super Mario games.
The Xenoblade series is one of the top RPG franchises and it is exclusive to Nintendo platforms and the series began on the Wii. Releasing in , the game became an instant hit with fans and saw a remaster on the Nintendo Switch in , helping to introduce a new audience to the game. Despite Nintendo not being particularly known for their FPS games, the developers did a fantastic job and it is highly regarded among fans.
Metroid Prime 4 has been in development for quite some time, so hopefully, we hear more news about it soon, but it did get delayed due to the developers not being happy with the game and starting over. Super Smash Bros Brawl is the third entry in the series and expanded the roster from 25 to 39 when compared to the previous entry, Super Smash Bros Melee.
New characters such as Diddy Kong, Lucario, Sonic, Snake, and Wario were included in the game, really adding a lot more depth to the roster. Wii Sports came bundled with the majority of Nintendo Wii consoles, which makes it one of the best-selling games of all time.
