We have a Wii in the house, but it's not hooked up to the projector. The reason? No good games. It's sad to say it, but I think the complete and utter disaster that was the Gamecube is one of the main reasons why the Wii isn't seeing more AAA-titles at this point. Developers were wary of developing a game for a system's console that might have to endure the same fate as its predecessor.
Hopefully, with the millions and millions of Wiis now sitting patiently in people's living rooms all across the world, we'll start to see some decent titles coming out.
Personally, I'm looking forward to Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles. Not because I'm a huge fan of the genre (rail shooter), but because it retells the entire Resident Evil-saga.
Squeeeeeeee!!
I'm also wondering if No more heroes is as good as Gamespot says it is.
Other than those two games, I really wouldn't recommend anything yet. Enjoy Wii sports. (Oh and Guitar Hero 3 if you haven't picked it up for another platform). People will also probably recommend Metroid Prime, but I've never played a single installment of the series myself, so I couldn't vouch for it.
Karorinpa: Marble Mania is a fantastic Wii title you that touts the ability of the wii-mote very well, as does Geometry Wars. Both are multi-player. If your looking for Halo or the button-mashing fighter type games, your looking at the wrong system. Super Mario Galaxy reminds me almost exactly of Super Mario 64, one of the best Mario games of it's days. Metroid Prime is a great example of what an FPS can be on the wii, but why it's not multi-player in the day and ago of Halo, I'll never know; BIG disappointment there. Don't go looking just for games with all the glitz in them, because wii has some well hidden gems if you ask me.
