Little King's Story is easilly top 5 or 10 Wii game.
And endless ocean 1 and 2 are amazing, but not for everyone. ( dreams about EO 3...)
I agree with the opinion that most of Wii games are overlooked gems... I loved that console.

Yep, very fun game, glad I was able to get it when it was released.

The bloom, oh man the bloom hurt my eyes. I wonder if the Vita version is better in that regard.
I never had that issue with it, although the controls were an issue on some occasions [minor, though].
I included it in my list since it is an overlooked title and I had fun with it, and can be purchased for relatively cheap these days.

Victorious Boxers: Revolution!
if you have a balance board you should try the first shaun white snowboarding game. I havent tried the sequel so I dunno about that.
dont forget the original sin & punishment is on the VC shop.
I love battalion wars 2,excite truck,ghost squad, and warioware smooth moves.
onichanbara bikini zombie slayers is not a "gem" but it can provide some cheap fun.
one piece unlimited adventure is good if you like one piece. I havent played the unlimited cruise sequels since they didnt come to usa and now I want them on 3ds instead.
resident evil umbrella chronicles is worth a play through, havent tried the sequels.
on wiiware, my life as a dark lord, bomberman blast.

I saw it at PAX last year. Bloom for sure.
Please do not remind me. I'm still upset/sore over us not getting it in North America.
Really? The problem I had was simply that the pointer/flashlight was not consistent and would jump around while trying to play. Other games didn't have that problem and the problem exists on every Wii and Wii U I've tried it on (which is basically five systems). That includes the Japanese version, by the way, which is the version I played first. I could never avoid the jumping cursor problem. It made the whole game feel glitchy as a result (as your whole character would react to the spastic cursor).
Nothing wrong with including it, though.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Not the best game ever, but a really fun little spin-off that came out early in the Wii's life cycle. Definitely worth a shot for any fans of Dragon Quest.
I love love LOVED this game.
I wish I could find it, though. Locally, I mean. Or on GAF, hate eBay.
I have the steel case version even.
I did, but I hated it
sorry

Oh well, I guess enough people didn't complain about the bloom.

Sorry.
it's not like it did well here, what a weird decision to not bring it over to you guys.

I know many people hated it, but I enjoyed Cursed Mountain quite a lot. It had some jank, but the story, the environments and enemies all created a very believable world, that was wholly unique and I'd love to see a sequel to it some day... maybe not a direct sequel but in the same spirit.

That was a big disappointment. Better controls and graphics than the first, but overall worse. Had to force myself to finish it.

Just started playing this last night and I'm liking it so far.
Speaking of Dragon Quest...
A stock-based, monopoly-like strategy game that's soooooo much more fun than it sounds.

I'd suggest the PS2 version, or even the PSP port. The Wii controls were fun for about 5 minutes, but the constant throwing enemies off your back while you were running became a chore with the Wii Remote. The PS2 and PSP version were much easier in this regard.

It actually made me feel uneasy at times. Growing up in the mountains I actually was amazed at how well they captured the harsh nature of high altitudes. Mind you I'm no climber, but I am familiar with the harsh weather and environments you would encounter up high. They did a great job with the animations, making Eriks running speed actually sensible, and had they put a bit more effort into the actual climbing parts, the game could've been a masterpiece.
Then you didn't play it correctly. I don't care about your opinion or your valid points, the game was awesome

I paid good money for this Dynex!
The Rebirth games were off tha hook.
And nobody played them, pretty much.
Both Castlevania: The Adventure Rebirth and Contra Rebirth were good enough games that if they came out back in the day, they'd be the games we point to when someone says "remember how good Konami used to be?"

Not a Wii exclusive (it's ported from the PS2), but Okami really didn't get the attention it deserved. It can almost rival the Zelda games.
