Tenkay23 of WiiBox360 used his friends for their opinions (he's evil) and combined them with his to form a list of the Top 40 Wii Games to date (it's all opinion of course).
The category was based on motion controls, gameplay, innovation, metacritic ratings, how far the game pushed the Wii it's limits and personal opinion.
To save readers time, the list was ranked 1 up to 40 instead of 40 down to 1 just in case some readers are only interested in the top 10 or top 5, etc.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
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?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
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.
The Nintendo Switch is potentially nearing its lifespan, and several Wii U games haven't found their way over as ports yet.
I think it's better to leave games like AC: Amiibo Festival and Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash forgotten on the Wii U. Best case, they are mediocre games; worse case, they are very bad. It was a dark time for the Wii U, and the first only exists to sell Amiibo cards, whereas the second was put together in a couple of months with a shoestring budget, and it shows.
The rest of the list does have some really cool games, though. I would love to see a remake of Star Fox Zero with decent controls, and Xenoblade X doesn't require that much modification to work.
Same as Paper Mario color splash. One of the best wiiu games and getting even better with dual screen. Same reason why i prefer Splatoon 1
This article leaves out Nintendo's most controversial game to date devils Third.
I personally found the cover system really fun in that one compared to at the time most fps games completely lacking one.
Kirby is always ignored or forgotten by people, so good to see it mentioned here.
Play Kirby Canvas Curse on DS, and then play Rainbow Curse on Wii U, they're really fun and unique 'platformers' without any actual jumping.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
I read your list, Tenkay23.
Good list, although I think you ranked a couple wrong (everyone will have their own opinion, of course). I think I own at least half of those games.
I spotted an error, if you care. #35, Dead Space Extraction is not a Wii exclusive. It's available on PSN, and comes with the PS3 version of Dead Space 2, as well.
Oh, thanks for finding that. I will update that. What would you have different?
It was hard to rank this list, even now I'm not sure if some games are ranked too high or too low but I think we can all agree most of them are awesome haha.
You left off the Wii Tales games (Symphonia "2", Graces), for one. Fragile Dreams is another one that was pretty stellar. They were better than several entries on your list, IMO.
GH5, NMH2, a couple others, didn't really seem worthy of a "top 40" ranking, to me. Most though, like I said, you nailed.
Serious question:
Why is Wario Ware: Smooth Moves NOT on this list? Why do people always overlook it?
Why does everyone love Skyward Sword so much? I don't get it. :/ Please, someone...TELL ME!
