My Wii list is very small. I've had a Wii since May 2007. Anyway I currently have...

Animal Crossing: City Folk
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Link's Crossbow Training
Mario Kart Wii
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
Super Paper Mario
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Wii Sports
Zack and Wiki: The Quest for Barbaros' Treasure

As far as Virtual Console/Wii Ware stuff I've only downloaded...

LostWinds
Mega Man 9

I used to have Super Mario Galaxy, but traded it in which I now regret. I will eventually pick it back up so I can play though it again.

2008 was a very slim year for me on the Wii. I didn't buy or play much at all. However the 2009 line up is looking a lot better. My wish list has already gotten pretty big for this year.

Not going to list them all, but I have over 40 games for my Wii and I have only had it since September 2008. However, I have a great source for Previously Played Games at a store called CD Tradepost. Most I have ever paid for a Wii game was $19 for "Mater Nation".

Has anyone here played "Boom Blox"??? That is the most fun I have had since the old "Columns" game for Sega Genesis.

:D
The only way to watch movies - Original Aspect Ratio!!!!
I LOVE my Blu-Ray Disc Player!

I technically only have one, but all together my family has:

SimAnimals (this one's mine)
Carnival Games
Dream Pinball 3D
WiiPlay
WiiSports


It's definitely not as many as some of the other people on here, but I'm the only one that really uses it. You see my mom bought it a) because she wanted instant gratification of buying something and b) she wanted the WiiFit so that she could possibly lose weight. Well, we don't have the WiiFit and she hasn't lost any weight (I think she has no motivation whatsoever) so I become the sole user of it along with the PS3, PS2 and my Nintendo DS Lite.

I've heard a lot of good things about Boom Blox, but I have not had a chance to play it yet.

Its on my "to buy" list. I have a lot of games I want to buy or try out.

They announced a sequel! Its called "Boom Blox Bash Party". Steven Spielberg will be involved once more, there will be stages which will affect the physics and free user generated content (as in user levels).

I have a fair number - maybe 10-15. I haven't counted exactly.

Though really, I've hated Nintendo's games as of late. It seems like the only good Wii games are by third parties, and also available on other consoles. (I haven't bought a Wii game since Mario Kart... not counting the Guitar Heros)

Though now that I have a modchip I don't need to worry as much. Really, most of Nintendo's games aren't worth buying, but playing for free... that's a different story :lol:

Too bad. I am personally enjoying a lot of Nintendo's Wii tltles.

Hope your Wii doesn't brick, though. :D

LOL... I know what I'm doing, the only way a modchip will brick your system is if you run non-official game dumps and one of them happens to be corrupted.

And I'm using my Wii more now for homebrew (like emulating old games, web browsing, and playing music/movies using MPlayer) than real games... since I don't like Nintendo's games.

I mean, stuff like Big Brain Academy isn't a game, that's just more crap they're coming out with. There are games like Sonic Unleashed, but then again it's also for Xbox 360/PS3 and that version has more stuff. Other than Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Kart Wii (actually not as good as I expected it to be), I don't think I liked any of Nintendo's Wii games made in 2008.

The Wii is a great system, but it has more potential than Nintendo is giving it. There's already so much stuff you can do via homebrew, that it almost beats using it for real games :lol:

There is talk going on now of Netflix coming to the Wii sometime. Right now its in the rumor stage, but I would be very interested in it if it happens.

Also the 2009 line up is looking really strong for the Wii.

I haven't tried the Wii version of it, but I played it on Gamecube before. I'm interested in picking it and Pikmin up soon. I've heard mixed reviews on Tennis, but Pikmin gets positive reviews for the new controls.

Wii Menu (Firmware) 4.0 is available today. It adds the ability to download and play Virtual Console, and WiiWare games from SD cards. The update also increases the size of SD cards that the Wii can except from 2GB to 32GB. A SD icon is added to the Menu screen on the bottom near the clock. When you select it you can load up your SD card, and it shows it as pages similar to the Wii Menu. You then pick which game you want to play and it will start loading...

Although when playing a game from the SD card it temporarily copies the game over to the internal memory, and then launches the game. Similar to how Guitar Hero World Tour works with downloaded tracks. From the video I watched (have not tried it yet) it doesn't take very long to do this. This means you still need a small amount of free space on your internal memory for this to work. Not a big deal in my opinion since all games can now be moved to the SD card to free up room on the internal memory.

I'm glad to see this has finally been added, after being talked about since last year.

Other news from the GDC conference included a new Zelda game for the DS, Virtual Console Arcade titles, Wario Ware for the DSi, and some new and old Final Fantasy games coming to the Wii though Virtual Console and WiiWare.

The one surprising point was when they showed the Wii Balance Board install base and mentioned it was approaching the same amount as the PS3 system install base. Very odd they did that, but overall a decent conference. Much better than E3 last year with Wii Music.

The Wii is pretty cool. I like it.

Here's what I have:

Super Mario Galaxy- awesome game. I beat whole thing. Really fun just like Super Mario 64. Roslina was also a fun new character.
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess I've yet to beat the game. Still near beginning and too lazy to finish. So far I like what I see. I still don't get what's all the disappointment about it is about.
Mario Kart Wii- AWESOME Mario Kart game. This is really fun game to play and I love the tracks they have here.
Super Smash Brothers Brawl....lol what can I say about this game? I was involved even in the internet hype for this game like going to main site every night to find out new updates and speculate which characters and what stages will be in the game. Fun time. Snake, Zero Suit Samus, and Pkm Trainer are my most favorite to play.
Wii Sport- I have fun with this game. I beat crap out people in Bowling and Boxing.
Wii fit- Still need get my parents to do this
Dragonball Z: Tenkaichi Budokai 3- The best DBZ game since Budokai 3. Has shitload of characters and stages to choose from. Love Hirugurudan. Forward B spam ftw.
Tomb Raider Anniversary I still need complete this game. relatively in beginning. Hard to master controls for me. Still need get Underworld also.
MadworldThis game IS the SHIT! So badass. It's bloody and grusome to the core but has a noir black and white look with only red blood. Kinda like Sin City. You can perform some many brutal ways to slaughter your enemies. Fun game.

Virtual Console:
Super Mario 64Classic game. Gotta love it
Mario Kart 64had Nostalgia feelings for this game.
Sin and Punishment- Hard game but really fun to play. Main Character is an Assit trophy in SSBB.
Super Mario Bros(NES)-Come on! Have to have this!
Super Mario Bros. 3The best of the Mario games for NES
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the PastI love this Zelda game and it a well recommended game by VG players.
Street Fighter II: New Challengers I got this one for cammy and DeeJay. LOL
Sonic the Hedgehog..........


Japan already got it but I'm waiting for Super Smash Brothers 64 to come out here. NoA will be retarded not to bring this to USA Wii.

The last game I got for my Wii was The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess. I have not played it for a while because I have been busy with everything else.

For some odd reason, I never saw you as a Wii fan.

I have HUGE list of Wii games to buy, and it also include Madworld. I don't care much for bloody games, BUT I do care for original third party titles on the Wii so its a must.
