I never said the Wii had nothing outside of first party titles going for it; I said it had little outside of them going for it. That said, I don't even like Nintendo's first party stuff on the Wii. As far as I'm concerned, Mario 64 is better than Galaxy, Super Mario Kart and Mario Kart 64 spit all over Mario Kart Wii, and Twilight Princess is like Ocarina of Time all over again, but with a crappy wolf form you're forced to use to perform crappy fetch quests in order to progress.Originally Posted by JKTrix
This is kind of the problem. I said:
And it's true. There are a good number of good Wii games out there, but most of them are too 'under the radar' in various ways. Opinions are fine (it's obviously my opinion that there are several good games on the Wii), but when people state that there's nothing worth playing besides a few Nintendo branded games it rubs me the wrong way. The majority of my favourite Wii games aren't even made by Nintendo.
I would agree that games like Boom Blox and Zack & Wiki are better than anything Nintendo seems to offer, but they're not killer apps, and certainly don't justify having the system in my eyes. The problem for me is even the Wii's best games aren't titles that stand out as anything truly amazing. At best they're a few hours of fun for me before I tire of them.
