Five Unique Wii Games You Probably Have Never Played

TQ author writes: With the Wii U in store shelves now I thought it would be nice to reminisce on a few of the best titles that the system had to offer during it’s lifespan. Instead of reveling in the awesomeness of Mario though, we are going to take a look at some of the less popular experiences that were very fun to play, but didn’t sell well at all whatsoever. Everybody deserves their time in the spotlight, even if no has ever heard of them right? Well let’s find out in a little segment we like to call Five Unique Wii Games You Have Probably Never Played.

But that's not all, The Wii U upscales all Wii games to 1080p!

Irishguy954188d ago

Actually i've heard it doesn't really. It stretches games to 1080p, but doesn't look any better. However due to the fact that you're using HDMI instead of Component it looks a tiny bit better. It's the same thing as Xbox stretching Cod to 1080p. It doesn't really do much

Played all of these.

Muramasa in particular is a beautiful game.

Myst4188d ago

Agreed it is. Sad to say I have not finished it, I will certainly have to make time this holiday season to go back and complete the game.

NeoTribe4188d ago

Ha, like how it saiz unqiue instead of saying great or fun games. Its like they had a hard time finding anything worth talking positive about in the light of the wii. "Here's some goo... fu... unique... games for the wii"

Mikito114188d ago

There are plenty of good games on Wii.
the top two on that list are brilliant.. And I can think of many more

Instigator4188d ago

I haven't played Cursed Mountain, but the rest of them are pretty good. I didn't like Madworld, although I can't deny that it's a good game.

Zelda Replay: Majora's Mask

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."

Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.

Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos13d ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger8813d ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

ChasterMies13d ago

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.

Strange headline, as I thought the star of the show was Super RType. I almost bought RType Dimensions EX this last month and was just thinking, man I wish we had the SNES one somewhere on Switch. That's where I got my start w the series and I was beyond excited to see it drop this week!
