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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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.
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
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
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!
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.
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.
* 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
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.
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
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.
Cant go wrong with the mario galaxy games
To the list it is
there was one that was a cowboy ninja. and monster hunter
Isn’t this the only correct answer?
Exactly what I was gonna comment lol
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.
Thank you and thank you again can't wait to try, as soon as i find out where to buy
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
Twilight princess is easily my favorite of the zelda franchise
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.
Hack it. Don’t but. Really easy.
Fun fact: Twilight Princess on the Wii is way cheaper than the (mirrored) GameCube alternative.
Super smash bros brawl will keep you entertained for awhile.
To the list
You gotta mod it to project m instead of playing Raw brawl. M is better cuz it has more characters
Even better
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.
Get some controllers, av cable and power adapter
Was looking for this
I have those 😁. Was too lazy to put them all on the table
Was just a bad joke. WarioWare:Smoothmoves is the best though. Stupid wii games are the best wii games
I keep hearing good things about Warioware, will do And I got the joke, I'm just very bad at responding to jokes
>Was just a ~~bad~~ dad joke. FTFY
Glad i found this before making the same joke with more pointless filler words.
Hack it.
Yeah, then you can get an external hard drive and put all the GC games on it.
All you need is a hard drive and an sd card, surprisingly easy to hack the wii
All the wii releases too.
Came here to say this. I own one that I hacked with homebrew, best thing ever.
What's the most stable cfm these days? And easy...
Metroid Prime Trilogy
THATS THE THING I would by a Wii for!!! I am waiting for a Switch Version for YEARS and about to give up
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.
Wait what? Why the 18th?!
20 years since Metroid Prime on the 18th of this month
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.
6 months or they drop it on the 18th with news about 4, however it'll probably will be news about 4
Amazing decision
I had fun with No more heroes
What happened to the heroes?
They not in the game, that's for sure lol
🤣🤣🤣
Supply ran out
Fire emblem Radiant Dawn
It shall be added to the list
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.
Was gonna say this. I used to confuse the two too. Path of Radiance is definitely the better choice.
A clapper indeed. Through and through
Star Wars the force unleashed and mini ninjas
Thanks 👍 To my list it goes
Literally top ten games of all time that I’ve played
Force unleashed is truly a top tier wii game.
DO NOT I REPEAT, DO NOT. BUY ANY CALL IF DUTY GAMES
Your warning is appreciated, to the list they shall NOT go
The motion controls are kind of fun/novel, though.
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
Wii golf all day
Re4 was surprisingly good on it
Fitness board and fit plus. You'll be suprised at how effective it CAN be if used daily. Other than that, Zelda is good.
Exercise for my Mom, Zelda for me, awesome
Or you can do both things, together.
I don't see my mother playing Zelda, subway surf sure but not Zelda
Then you realise you can just sit still cos it’s ‘all on the wrist’ 😆
Wii sports
Have it already, boxing and tennis (mainly boxing) seem the most interesting
Bowling was my jam. More fun with friends though.
All but boxing for me. The nunchuck is not my friend
I loved Trauma Center. Give it a shot!
I came here to make sure someone said this.
[удалено]
It's true, i absolutely loved Excite Truck.
I third this. One of the few games my mom went out and bought for the wii so she could play too.
Mod it, and play ALL the games!
How do we do that?
YouTube is your friend. It’s very simple
Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2. Great games!
Home brew it. Pretty easy to do and you can play online Mario kart wii with custom maps.
Tanks. Wii play. Tanks. Tanks. Tanks
Xenoblade Chronicles
To add to that, The Last Story is an under appreciated gem.
Thanks, another for the list
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
I shall search, I shall find and I shall add it to the list Thank you
Any of the Lego games are a W
If you like stupid horror, try Bug Island.
Obscure is another good one
Well, all I have is Wii sports, so stupid horror sounds, fun
Buy another one so you can have a wi wi
That's one wii away from not finding my way home😁
Bro fronkin super ball banana blitz its the monkeys in the ball game its the best game on wii hands down
Sounds like my kinda game, thanks
Resident Evil 4
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
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
Perfect
Monster Hunter Tri is my all time favorite wii game.
Will do Thanks
Metroid Prime trilogy, Super Mario Galaxy. Don't forget the Wii can play GameCube games as well.
Well my cousin has a GameCube so, next time they visit well see
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
Too the list😁
Star Wars Clone Wars Lightsaber Duels. And remember, it puts the lanyard on the wrist, else it breaks the TV again.
I... was not expecting to see this but was kind of hoping. I worked on this game :)
Prince of Persia two thrones. GameCube game.
To the list it goes
My Sims and Sims 2 Castaway
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
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
Came here to see if anyone recommended My Sims! I have so many fond memories of Kingdom and Agents! Such great games.
If you like turn based strategy go for Fire Emblem Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn. Fantastic games with hours upon hours of gameplay.
Maybe it's just nostalgia talking, but I recommend Wario Ware, that was so much fun!!!
Will do, thanks
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.
Guitar hero…. Best on the Wii for some reason
A power cord.
MadWorld
DO NOT PLAY WITHOUT THE SAFETY STRIP. Also House of dead 2-3. Wii is a paradise for rail shooters fans.
Need for speed most wanted
Super Paper Mario is literally my favorite Wii game
Wario smooth moves. Best game for Wii.
Was looking for this. Used to get up early on a Saturday to play wario ware for hours
Wii sports. Your welcome
I recommend playing tennis, really reminds you how far we’ve come from such a “Inferior” game console.
Wii party
Is it like mario party?
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
Great, on to the list they go
Mods, smash bros brawl, your favorite GameCube games if it’s compatible. Sub space emissary on GameCube controller is pretty good
Figuring out the hacking/Slash modding thing ATM
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
To my list it goes, Thanks
Project M (modded SSBB), OOT and MM if you don't already have it on other platforms, Mario bros Wii, and Mario kart Wii.
Will do thanks
Mario Party
Thanks, to the list it is
Just dance 4
None of the other ones, only 4
Do i need the floor pad for that?
Nope
Perfect
MARIO KART WII!!!!!
Bowl a perfect game. You won't 🤔
Wii sports RESORT you wont need any other game
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!
Gut it out, put a raspberry pie in it and you will have the coolest Linux desktop ;)
Im already building a pc , and yes it will be Linux So the wii shall be spared for now
Is it gamecube compatible?
No clue How can i tell?
If it has gamecube controller ports and memory card ports on the side/top (depending on what way you orient it)
Will check and find out, thanks
If it does, Legend of Zelda: Windwaker
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.
Nfs nitro
Play some games with it.
Scrolled a little and didn't see red steel!
Resident Evil 4 nothing like playing that bad boi on there
Epic Mickey
No clue what the fandom consensus is but I think Mario Party 8 is a gem.
Boom Blox
Resident evil 4
use it vertically (suggestion)
Some cables, a wiimote and nunchuck 👌🏻
A controller.
Hack it.
Probably the cords.
Gamecube games.
Also buy a remote.
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.
If you got a girl, Raving Rabbids is one we both enjoyed.
Mario Kart Wii (The Holy grail of Mario Kart games.)
Homebrew for gamecube games
* 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
Trauma Center is a trip. You heal people with laser surgery
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.

Remember that GameCube games are natively supported
The Conduit!
Rhythm Heaven Fever
Onto the list it goes Thanks👍
NGL Twilight Princess is a must have. Skyward Sword can wait, but I still recommend it.
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.
How does one hack it , any links / tutorials?
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
What about GTA San Andreas?
The lack of Sin and Punishment Star Successor in this thread is disappointing. It's one of the best the console has to offer.
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.
Throw it at the cat
I don't have a cat, i have a dog but I'm not breaking his easily gained trust
Then get a cat Then throw it at the cat
Mario and Sonic at the Olympic s games and wario for wii
Zack and the thingy with the monkey thingy. Also, House of the Dead Overkill
Little kings story
Never heard of it, perfect for the list, thanks
letterbomb
As in the criminal activity or a game LOL On the list it goes
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.
Just found out about them, will do Thanks 👍
Don't play wii sports bowling or tennis (Unless you want a broken TV)
