Super Mario Galaxy (Newest Mario game, rave reviews. 'Nuff said.)

Trauma Center: New Blood (Full-fledged sequel to the launch title. Pretty awesome.)

Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 (Best FPS controls and online for Wii.)

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (It's Guitar Hero. It's awesome. Buy it if you like music.)

Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles (If you're a fan of RE at all, pick this up. If not, then look into it first.)


Then, I'd suggest looking into Metroid Prime 3: Corruption and Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition if you don't have them yet.




To be, or not to be: that is the question. To die, to sleep; no more; and by a sleep to say we end. To die, to sleep; To sleep, perchance to dream. Ay, there's the rub. For in that sleep of death what dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil must give us pause. That makes calamity of so long life, for who would bear the whips and scorns of time when he himself might his quietus make with a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear, to grunt and sweat under a weary life, but that the dread of something after death, the undiscover'd country from whose bourn no traveller returns, puzzles the will and makes us rather bear those ills we have than fly to others that we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all...

Oh yeah, I forgot about Trauma Center. If you're a fan, Geometry Wars might be worth picking up as well. (of course it'll probably be one of those ridiculously cheap games in a year or two)

Also... Zack and Wiki got good reviews... IGN compared it to the best games no one played, Rocket Robot on Wheels and Space Station Silicon Valley (N64), both of which I played and both of which were as good as a good 1st party game. I think I'm gonna have to play it.

Heh, I played Geometry Wars at a GameStop in a local mall recently. It's good for quick fun, but I wouldn't pay full price. (But as you said, it will become one of those really cheap games eventually.)

If I was to get Trauma Center for the holidays on the Wii, should I get both?

Probably not. You don't need to have played the first to enjoy the second and the second improves upon the first in every way. It'd probably be better to just get New Blood for now. If you really like it, you can pick up the other.


Also, what about NiGHTS Journey of Dreams? I can't say I'm impressed with it at this point, but I had a lot of fun with the original...

Here you can find a pretty decent list of new releases for the Wii that are all good buys this holiday season.

I'd also add Zack and Wiki to the list (especially if you have a girlfriend or young siblings that enjoy playing videogames/Wii), and Guitar Hero III (again, particularly fun for girlfriends and siblings, too, eheheh).

I personally own most of those titles.

There are more and more great Wii titles coming out, which is great because when the Wii first came out the only fun game was Zelda Twilight Princess. I own Zelda Twilight Princess and would recommend it but be up for a challenge! Also, although I'm not a fan of sports games, Madden NFL 07' ( 08' for those who always need to have that one updated thing that nobody truly cares about) is a really fun game, and multiplayer just adds to the fun.

Hey, I thought Excite truck was really fun for a launch game too - and elebits (but I think wait... was elebits a launch game? I think it was...)
