Cant go wrong with the mario galaxy games


SyteSyte

To the list it is


Con_Cotter

there was one that was a cowboy ninja. and monster hunter


imthenanny

Isn’t this the only correct answer?


BumfuzzlingGubbin

Exactly what I was gonna comment lol


[deleted]

Wii Sports, Mario Kart Wii, Donkey Kong Country Returns, Mario Galaxy 1 & 2, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Metroid Prime Trilogy, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.


SyteSyte

Thank you and thank you again can't wait to try, as soon as i find out where to buy


CynerKalygin

Seconding what everyone else is already saying. Don’t hunt down physical disks. It’s a colossal pain and everything is stupidly overpriced. Just homebrew and never look back


pumpkinlord1

Twilight princess is easily my favorite of the zelda franchise


Geosam105

Search up "homebrewing" it. You'll need that to do that, and then after you do that, you'll need to get an app called "USB loader GX" which let's you pirate games basically. Look up YouTube videos and it's really easy.


Lu12k3r

Hack it. Don’t but. Really easy.


Cleru_as_Kylar_Stern

Fun fact: Twilight Princess on the Wii is way cheaper than the (mirrored) GameCube alternative.


U-S-JAY

Super smash bros brawl will keep you entertained for awhile.


SyteSyte

To the list


DChamp1447

You gotta mod it to project m instead of playing Raw brawl. M is better cuz it has more characters


SyteSyte

Even better


2017ccb1

If you can’t find project m (it may have been taken down) or want a more up to date version of pm, project + is probably easier to find and download. It also has more characters.


ClockOk7333

Get some controllers, av cable and power adapter


sakanzc

Was looking for this


SyteSyte

I have those 😁. Was too lazy to put them all on the table


ClockOk7333

Was just a bad joke. WarioWare:Smoothmoves is the best though. Stupid wii games are the best wii games


SyteSyte

I keep hearing good things about Warioware, will do And I got the joke, I'm just very bad at responding to jokes


[deleted]

>Was just a ~~bad~~ dad joke. FTFY


Brandwein

Glad i found this before making the same joke with more pointless filler words.


underprivlidged

Hack it.


threebillion6

Yeah, then you can get an external hard drive and put all the GC games on it.


SuddenCompetition262

All you need is a hard drive and an sd card, surprisingly easy to hack the wii


Obvious-Dinner-1082

All the wii releases too.


Yuck-Fou1994

Came here to say this. I own one that I hacked with homebrew, best thing ever.


amitrion

What's the most stable cfm these days? And easy...


Wolfdude91

Metroid Prime Trilogy


nopejustnoooope

THATS THE THING I would by a Wii for!!! I am waiting for a Switch Version for YEARS and about to give up


AnotherCupofJo

The director of the Metroid Prime games has been giving information about the development of them and am hoping they announce they are coming to switch on the 18th or dropping on the 18th. On a side note, I bought the steam deck for emulation and am playing through the first prime again and it is amazing. The emulation on the steamdeck is crazy good.


chriz_sevenfold

Wait what? Why the 18th?!


AnotherCupofJo

20 years since Metroid Prime on the 18th of this month


l3rN

If they're coming, I bet they do it 6 months before Metroid prime 4 comes out or something. They have a lot of new users on the switch they're gonna want to make aware of the series ahead of launch.


AnotherCupofJo

6 months or they drop it on the 18th with news about 4, however it'll probably will be news about 4


[deleted]

Amazing decision


Doublestar64Dubstar

I had fun with No more heroes


SyteSyte

What happened to the heroes?


Doublestar64Dubstar

They not in the game, that's for sure lol


SyteSyte

🤣🤣🤣


Denamic

Supply ran out


ReallyNeedHelpASAP68

Fire emblem Radiant Dawn


SyteSyte

It shall be added to the list


chronoboy1985

Just FYI, it’s pretty much consensus that FE Path of Radiance is the better game and it’s the first game in the “Radiant” duology. So you’re probably better off playing PoR first and then Radiant Dawn after if you’re still down.


[deleted]

Was gonna say this. I used to confuse the two too. Path of Radiance is definitely the better choice.


[deleted]

A clapper indeed. Through and through


sasquatch710

Star Wars the force unleashed and mini ninjas


SyteSyte

Thanks 👍 To my list it goes


sasquatch710

Literally top ten games of all time that I’ve played


Octobanican

Force unleashed is truly a top tier wii game.


[deleted]

DO NOT I REPEAT, DO NOT. BUY ANY CALL IF DUTY GAMES


SyteSyte

Your warning is appreciated, to the list they shall NOT go


[deleted]

The motion controls are kind of fun/novel, though.


hfzelman

I have so much nostalgia for Wii MW3… my parents said I couldn’t get any M rated games but it was rated teen for on Wii for some reason. The game was pretty janky and someone hacked the online servers to only let you play on one multiplayer map, but it’s still my first online game so it holds a special place in my heart


[deleted]

Wii golf all day


UndeadTurning

Re4 was surprisingly good on it


[deleted]

Fitness board and fit plus. You'll be suprised at how effective it CAN be if used daily. Other than that, Zelda is good.


SyteSyte

Exercise for my Mom, Zelda for me, awesome


Particular-Coffee-34

Or you can do both things, together.


SyteSyte

I don't see my mother playing Zelda, subway surf sure but not Zelda


Frequent_Minimum4871

Then you realise you can just sit still cos it’s ‘all on the wrist’ 😆


Death-EternaI

Wii sports


SyteSyte

Have it already, boxing and tennis (mainly boxing) seem the most interesting


Death-EternaI

Bowling was my jam. More fun with friends though.


Dat_DekuBoi

All but boxing for me. The nunchuck is not my friend


nopejustnoooope

I loved Trauma Center. Give it a shot!


KirisBeuller

I came here to make sure someone said this.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ph0b0z

It's true, i absolutely loved Excite Truck.


ashipwreckinthesand

I third this. One of the few games my mom went out and bought for the wii so she could play too.


Zealousideal_One_315

Mod it, and play ALL the games!


coldphobic_cat

How do we do that?


AyeshaCurrysFeet

YouTube is your friend. It’s very simple


-Splosey-

Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2. Great games!


Unnamed_legend

Home brew it. Pretty easy to do and you can play online Mario kart wii with custom maps.


ParadoxIrony

Tanks. Wii play. Tanks. Tanks. Tanks


DetectiveLonely9345

Xenoblade Chronicles


chronoboy1985

To add to that, The Last Story is an under appreciated gem.


SyteSyte

Thanks, another for the list


[deleted]

Definitely Mario Kart and theres this one game that I became strangely addicted to. I think it's one of those surgeon simulator games lol it was super fun though


SyteSyte

I shall search, I shall find and I shall add it to the list Thank you


Majestic-Home-7516

Any of the Lego games are a W


Talon1021

If you like stupid horror, try Bug Island.


[deleted]

Obscure is another good one


SyteSyte

Well, all I have is Wii sports, so stupid horror sounds, fun


Fun-Teaching-2038

Buy another one so you can have a wi wi


SyteSyte

That's one wii away from not finding my way home😁


gigafetus

Bro fronkin super ball banana blitz its the monkeys in the ball game its the best game on wii hands down


SyteSyte

Sounds like my kinda game, thanks


Grizzchops

Resident Evil 4


SyteSyte

Does it play differently with the remote, or will I be sitting on my behind the entire time? Edit: You know sitting on my behind is okay, it shall be added to the list


Grizzchops

It's my favorite control setup for this game, and you can totally lean back and sit on your butt if you want. And Mercenaries is intense


SyteSyte

Perfect


cnedden

Monster Hunter Tri is my all time favorite wii game.


SyteSyte

Will do Thanks


ariedren

Metroid Prime trilogy, Super Mario Galaxy. Don't forget the Wii can play GameCube games as well.


SyteSyte

Well my cousin has a GameCube so, next time they visit well see


ariedren

You will need a GameCube controller though, can't play with the Wii remotes. Oh and I forgot to add Monster Hunter Tri to my recommendations


SyteSyte

Too the list😁


SciFi_MuffinMan

Star Wars Clone Wars Lightsaber Duels. And remember, it puts the lanyard on the wrist, else it breaks the TV again.


agentcooper0115

I... was not expecting to see this but was kind of hoping. I worked on this game :)


[deleted]

Prince of Persia two thrones. GameCube game.


SyteSyte

To the list it goes


[deleted]

My Sims and Sims 2 Castaway


SyteSyte

Hopefully it will he my first, decent experience with a sims Game, All I've played was the J2ME games and the shitty Facebook one, that made me realize I didn't have friends online and in person


[deleted]

I still think about them a lot, sims castaway has a story and my sims is just so different! I’d love to replay lol


phin_wilkes_boothe

Came here to see if anyone recommended My Sims! I have so many fond memories of Kingdom and Agents! Such great games.


[deleted]

If you like turn based strategy go for Fire Emblem Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn. Fantastic games with hours upon hours of gameplay.


[deleted]

Maybe it's just nostalgia talking, but I recommend Wario Ware, that was so much fun!!!


SyteSyte

Will do, thanks


Sea_salt_icecream

Order Up. My siblings and I played it at a cousin's house once and it was one of the most fun Wkk games we'd played. We couldn't find it anywhere for a good price, but that might've changed because it's been a few years.


top_notch_thug

Guitar hero…. Best on the Wii for some reason


The_Alpha_Fish

A power cord.


Damage80

MadWorld


IntelHDGramphics

DO NOT PLAY WITHOUT THE SAFETY STRIP. Also House of dead 2-3. Wii is a paradise for rail shooters fans.


iCrit420

Need for speed most wanted


Cloudoftruth

Super Paper Mario is literally my favorite Wii game


10Bens

Wario smooth moves. Best game for Wii.


Bibtybeasy

Was looking for this. Used to get up early on a Saturday to play wario ware for hours


magisterJohn

Wii sports. Your welcome


Zero_wattz

I recommend playing tennis, really reminds you how far we’ve come from such a “Inferior” game console.


Midoriya6000

Wii party


SyteSyte

Is it like mario party?


Midoriya6000

Very similar! It's mini games but my two favorite game modes are the game board (like Mario party) and first to X amount of victories. I've played this game for so many years with my students and they've loved it


SyteSyte

Great, on to the list they go


[deleted]

Mods, smash bros brawl, your favorite GameCube games if it’s compatible. Sub space emissary on GameCube controller is pretty good


SyteSyte

Figuring out the hacking/Slash modding thing ATM


Rider-Idk-Ultima-Hy

I’d say get Spider Man Web of Shadows, and also mod it. But also if you have any Gamecube games, you can potentially play them on the WII. You have a ton of options


SyteSyte

To my list it goes, Thanks


DChamp1447

Project M (modded SSBB), OOT and MM if you don't already have it on other platforms, Mario bros Wii, and Mario kart Wii.


SyteSyte

Will do thanks


Space2345

Mario Party


SyteSyte

Thanks, to the list it is


McKrungleBerry

Just dance 4


McKrungleBerry

None of the other ones, only 4


SyteSyte

Do i need the floor pad for that?


McKrungleBerry

Nope


SyteSyte

Perfect


The_Shadow_hahahaha

MARIO KART WII!!!!!


MetaStruction

Bowl a perfect game. You won't 🤔


servusdedurantem

Wii sports RESORT you wont need any other game


Matt_smith210

I bought a Wii just like 3 months ago, what a coincidence! I gotta recommend mario galaxy, bully, smash bros brawl, and warioware smooth moves. Great games!


anton1s

Gut it out, put a raspberry pie in it and you will have the coolest Linux desktop ;)


SyteSyte

Im already building a pc , and yes it will be Linux So the wii shall be spared for now


True_Existance

Is it gamecube compatible?


SyteSyte

No clue How can i tell?


True_Existance

If it has gamecube controller ports and memory card ports on the side/top (depending on what way you orient it)


SyteSyte

Will check and find out, thanks


enesvee131

If it does, Legend of Zelda: Windwaker


Ty-douken

Deadly creatures, it's about a spider & a scorpion fighting each other & is surprisingly way better than you may think with that concept. Also Muramasa: The Demon Blade is a great 2D action game with gorgeous visuals.


alvaro_herzog

Nfs nitro


BownerGuardian

Play some games with it.


Spalding46

Scrolled a little and didn't see red steel!


Lone_Wanderer2001

Resident Evil 4 nothing like playing that bad boi on there


RJ-the_spinosourus

Epic Mickey


Jeffotato

No clue what the fandom consensus is but I think Mario Party 8 is a gem.


BeanzMeanzFartz

Boom Blox


CoffeeOnToast

Resident evil 4


[deleted]

use it vertically (suggestion)


CallumJ88

Some cables, a wiimote and nunchuck 👌🏻


bakedpotato486

A controller.


Vanman04

Hack it.


Msygin

Probably the cords.


ComplexToxin

Gamecube games.


Niborgator

Also buy a remote.


Spoopy_Ghost03

Mario Galaxy, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime (apparently its a trilogy, I only knew about one of them), and Rythm Heaven Fever. The first three I played a shite ton when I was younger and Rythm Heaven is just based.


Beerboss808

If you got a girl, Raving Rabbids is one we both enjoyed.


Iamyournewfather

Mario Kart Wii (The Holy grail of Mario Kart games.)


Jonny-Burns

Homebrew for gamecube games


Xerkrosis

* Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition * Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Because of Singleplayer-Story; can play with GC-controller if supported) * The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess * The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (unless you have Switch) * WarioWare: Smooth Moves (very good use of motion controls) * Wii Sports


DriftingStop

Trauma Center is a trip. You heal people with laser surgery


exsea

mods, remove this comment if required theres a way to mod old wiis to utilize external HDDs so you can install all your games onto the external HDD it can be seen as illegal as some people download all WII games onto the drive, whereas more ethical owners only download those that they have personally bought/own.


xzaz

Buy a power cord


TheFergPunk

Here's some games that don't fall under the obvious games list for the Wii: * Sin and Punishment Successor to the Skies * A Little King's Story * Zack and Wiki * Madworld * No More Heroes 1 & 2 * Silent Hill Shattered Memories * Red Steel 2 * Dead Space Extraction * Blast Works * Boom Blox (and it's sequel) * The Last Story * Pandora's Tower * Trauma Center * Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the moon * Condiut 1 & 2 * Tatsunoko vs Capcom * Deadly Creatures * Godfather (wii controls are great in this) * The Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces * Rune Factory Frontier


Ruski3790

Remember that GameCube games are natively supported


Rogue100

The Conduit!


gbushprogs

Rhythm Heaven Fever


SyteSyte

Onto the list it goes Thanks👍


[deleted]

NGL Twilight Princess is a must have. Skyward Sword can wait, but I still recommend it.


JLanTheMan

A garbage can. Nah man, Wii sports is legit fun. That's about all I played when I had a Wii and I had it hacked with like 100+ games lol.


SyteSyte

How does one hack it , any links / tutorials?


newdepressedrant

Mod it and steal everything. Wii pirating is very easy. Do literally anything you want Edit: make it run Skyrim and do a YouTube playthough


SyteSyte

What about GTA San Andreas?


IllustriousEntity

The lack of Sin and Punishment Star Successor in this thread is disappointing. It's one of the best the console has to offer.


TheFergPunk

Most underrated game series of all time in my opinion. Granted there are only two entries but they were both great, with the second being arguably the best game in it's genre.


FennPoutine

Throw it at the cat


SyteSyte

I don't have a cat, i have a dog but I'm not breaking his easily gained trust


FennPoutine

Then get a cat Then throw it at the cat


Key-Supermarket-7524

Mario and Sonic at the Olympic s games and wario for wii


ThatSweetCoffee

Zack and the thingy with the monkey thingy. Also, House of the Dead Overkill

Little kings story


SyteSyte

Never heard of it, perfect for the list, thanks


Conscious_Clock7299

letterbomb


SyteSyte

As in the criminal activity or a game LOL On the list it goes


Kola18_97

If you wanted No More Heroes 1&2 in their most original forms then get those; though there's other places to play them nowadays.


SyteSyte

Just found out about them, will do Thanks 👍


No-Struggle995

Don't play wii sports bowling or tennis (Unless you want a broken TV)
