Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World and Mario Kart Wii. These two games have convinced more people I know to buy Wiis than every other Wii game combined.

Also, Super Smash Bros Brawl is hella fun, even if the online component is damn near unplayable.

*Takes a look at his wii games*


Well, I also recommend the Super Mario Galaxies(second one is kind of easier, or I got better at it, either way I beat the entire thing on one rent, except for the green stars, that's just way too grindy).


Also the gamecube remakes, such as Pikmin that was mentioned before.


Brawl too, it has a silly campaign, lots of unlockables, level design, and so on. AI is not half bad either.


For the price, ghost squad can hold your attention for a while. Its a remake of a classic rail shooter for arcade places. Held my attention for at least 5 hours.

Dirt 2 is a pretty alright racer. Cars are way imbalanced(as with most race games, so I shouldn't complain), and its the only "Sim" racer I know of on the wii.

Finely, I can not recommend mushroom men, such a terrible game, or maybe its not for my age.

i think you are talking about Ghost Squad, Ghost Recon won't come out for the wii until later this year.

Ah, you are correct. Subconscious mind mixes up lots of things.

Will edit that in a bit.

You mentioned Harvest Moon...
Harvest Moon: Tree of Tranquility is for Wii, and in my opinion it's the best HM available right now, to the point where going back to the newer DS games felt like a HUGE step backwards afterwards. It gets rid of a lot of the arbitrary annoyances in the mechanics, adds a bunch of new features and animals (Rideable ostriches!), has an interesting batch of characters and cute stylized graphics to boot. It also has the option to play as either male or female, unlike a ton of the other games. It's so good.

It has a pseudo-sequel called Animal March, which in my opinion is somewhat inferior, but it's moot anyway since it doesn't have a PAL release yet according to Wikipedia.

Its not PAL yet apparently... T_T Else it would be in my gamelist...

Pikmin 1&2 if you don't have it already.

I have Pikman 1 and soon 2, put it down when I had the chance to buy my NON Gaming Girlfriend a NDS when she say Nintendogs and that new Art thing thats out...


Thanks for the Suggestions guys, but does anyone actually have Little Kings Story, is it any good. I like my City building type games so thats why I am looking into it this weekend...

it really sucks, you just build buildings in random places if you want and have only text based battles which you can't participate in. i would like the option to follow your adventurers and watch them do their thing but oh well(note i pirated this game cause somehow i knew it would suck and i didn't felt like shelling out 20 bucks for crap).

*edit this is about Final Fantasy My life as a king.

Those are different games, bloodsheder. You should pay more attention to the name.

Are you sure about that? Wikipedia lists EU and AUS release dates for it from 2009.

Personally 'My life as a King' sounds right up my alley in gameplay style. Though I wouldn't mind trying before I buy it, if only...

Thats what both Gamestores (EBGames and GAME) and JB HIFI said... I will ask again...
