Survival Horror Games for the Wii?

Jerry from BagoGames says, "Mario games are great for Wii, but what about survival horror games? You wouldn't think it, but the family-friendly box has some satisfyingly creepy titles."

Every Nintendo console has horror titles

FallenAngel19842810d ago

How many times are we going to hear "you wouldn't think these kind of games would be on a Nintendo console?"

Seriously anyone who spews that sounds like an uninformed grandparent. At this point it shouldn't surprise you that any kind of game comes to a Nintendo console.

In fact every console from every hardware manufacturer is family friendly.

_-EDMIX-_2809d ago

Because generally it messes the bulk of em.

Doom 3 skipped Wii
Doom skipped Wii and Wii U
Alien Isolation skipped Wii and Wii U
Evil Within skipped Wii and Wii U
Silent Hill series.....like MOST of them skipped Wii and Wii U
Outlast skipped Wii U
Soma skipped Wii U
Layers Of Fear skipped Wii U
P.T skipped Wii U
Among The Sleep skipped Wii U
Dead Space series (ie MAIN GAMES) skipped Wii and Wii U
Dead Island skipped Wii and Wii U
Dying Light skipped Wii U

The list goes on, a vast number of series just don't show up on those platforms. Its not that shocking to hear someone say "you wouldn't think these kind of games would be on a Nintendo console?" when the system has entire SERIES that have never been on any Nintendo platform. Literally, they are the only damn hardware company that has THIS many series MISSING from their systems.

The vast majority of what I told you can be found on PC, PS and XB, Nintendo is simply the odd man out on this one. This isn't even a subjective idea either, this is literally a objective fact....most series are not on Nintendo systems. Someone making that statement I feel is fair to say that.

We get Resident Evil on Nintendo systems, yet many SKIP them, ie RE5,6 and 7, where XB literally has more Resident Evil titles in terms of main series on it....look it up.

They have Fatal Frame

Zombi U.

......I mean thats about it lol Sad part is, they don't even have all of Fatal Frame or Resident Evil. So even the series they have, they don't even have all the titles or main titles. Like I stated, even XB has all the main RE titles... Its just not a system I recommend if someone likes horror games.

FallenAngel19842809d ago

Obviously many games skip Nintendo consoles, but that still doesn't mean it doesn't get games like those time to time

_-EDMIX-_2809d ago

"doesn't get games like those time to time"

Who said it didn't? My own post states they do and even gives examples

Its why I stated that in the first place, because I KNEW you'd try to turn this into a argument about the assumption of it having ZERO GAMES. Never said anything like never bud, simply that so many have skipped that platform that the comment someone might make about that is warranted completely.

Example, is Evil Within 2 coming to Switch?

Exactly.

Yet you wonder why someone might make that comment? Are you serious?

This is the ONLY hardware manufacturer in terms of gaming that legit has soooooo many missing series. Someone is correct to have that assumption as like I stated in ENGLISH in my post "many SKIP them" as you stated too "many games skip Nintendo consoles"

Soooo what are you arguing about? Facts? smh

I recall a Silent Hill knockoff that never released. Even the name was something similar. It actually looked pretty.

_-EDMIX-_2809d ago

Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition needs to be on the list if not number 1!
PROJECT ZERO 2: WII EDITION (If you've never played Fatal Frame 2....this is a good version to play next to the PS2 port on PS3 via PSN)
Dead Rising was also ported to the Wii but I'm not sure if that is a good version or not, but still a horror title.

Venoxn4g2809d ago

Dont forget Project zero 4.. love that game to bits :)

_-EDMIX-_2809d ago

OH YEA! Did that ever come to the west?

Either way, that is a must add too.

Venoxn4g2808d ago

EDMIX it didnt come to the west..but there is proper fan translation to it on internet which lets you to play in english..game is really good

LgbtWarrior2809d ago

Cursed mountain is awesome. When using controls, don't make large gestures. Use small flicks and it works perfectly. Great game.

Super Mario Odyssey Turns Seven - Ranking the 3D Mario Games

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "With the Switch getting on in years and the prospect of a new Nintendo console growing closer, now seems like an excellent time to take a look back at one of its mascot’s two big evolutionary lines, particularly since we now find ourselves in the longest wait ever between 3D Mario games. Today marks the seven year anniversary for the release of Super Mario Odyssey, and with no full new entry in sight, it comfortably beats the roughly six year wait between Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine, which should also be good news to anybody who broke a mirror that day.

3D Mario has delighted fans since 1996, maintaining an astonishing level of quality and bringing innovations not just to the 3D platformer genre, but gaming as a whole. Needless to say, it’s a hard task to rank a series where every entry is beloved, but I shall nevertheless undertake this risky venture with my head held high. Wish me luck."

One of the worst marios.. i hated the fact it was only about finding the moons and very repetitive with the same bosses. There is no exploration in this one.
Galaxy 2 is still unmatched

TiredGamer182d ago

I played, completed, and enjoyed Mario Odyssey, but I tend to agree that I don't think it's the best 3D Mario. There was sense of sameness that prevailed after the first couple of worlds... not in the levels, environments, or aesthetics, but in the routine of each world. It just felt like each new environment was just the beginning of another checklist of moons to acquire, and the sheer number of them took away the sense of accomplishment I got from the stars in Mario 64 and the like. I can't exactly put my finger on why that is. Galaxy gets my nod as the best one.

Cacabunga182d ago

I enjoyed it too but i won’t even place it in my top10 mario games.. as you said you are just looking for stars and that irritating music everytime you find one.
Also the bosses are pretty much the same from begging to end. I would have have like some koopalings instead of these dumb useless rabbits

Chocoburger182d ago

I played a little of this game and freakin' LOVED it! But I forced myself to stop because I hadn't played Galaxy 2, which I've been playing every day for the past week. Cripes, Galaxy 2 is way better than I expected it to be! Even though I dislike the Wiimote and nunchuck controls, and it annoyed me a lot with Galaxy 1, part 2 just feels better and slightly less gimmicky when it comes to the controls.

Profchaos182d ago

Sunshine at number 7 no way. I get it's not perfect but it deserves better to date there has not been another 3d Mario that's managed to capture that same movement it's the most acrobatic feeling Mario to date.

It's by and large better than 3d land/world and I'd argue that galaxy 2 didn't offer any trie innovation it was essentially a DLC pack to 1

Personally it's
1) Mario 64
2) Mario Sunshine
3) Mario galaxy
4) Mario Odyssey
5) galaxy 2
6) Bowser fury
7) 3d land/ world.

My top 3 are Mario 3, Mario World and Mario 64. Mario Odyssey is also excellent, and I enjoyed Sunshine but didn't care for the Galaxy series.
