What are the best Wii games?
Now that I've finally decided to join 2006 and got myself a Wii, I need to know what games I should get for it. I already have Mario Kart and Super Mario Bros. Since my H is a game elitist, I will most likely play the majority of the games alone so nothing that requires multiple players please.

Re: What are the best Wii games?
I love Carnival Games and Glee Karaoke Revelation.
Also if your H won't play if you set up the wireless you can play people online.
You already have the best Wii game. It's Mario cart, hands down.
For kids, I love the Lego games, and my husband loves playing that with M, but I'm not sure how much fun they would be for just an adult.

Another rec for Lego Batman. It's pretty old now, so it should be super cheap. Lego Harry Potter is meh.
Super Mario Galaxy is really good, too.

I got Donkey Kong Country for X-mas and I LOVE it, it's super fun.
Sadly, I agree that Lego Harry Potter is meh--too much repetition and too many glitches. We got Batman for Christmas annd I think it's going to be my favorite.
We have We Cheer. There's another cheerleading game called All-Star Cheer Squad or something like that, but I think the controls are a little easier on We Cheer. You use 2 remotes as "pom poms", and on the other one, you use the remote in one hand and the nunchuck in the other and they're tethered together and it's a pain.
Either way, my favorite thing about the cheering games was the movement/exercise coupled with songs I kinda liked, and you get a whole lot more of that with Just Dance, so if you're choosing between the two, definitely go with Just Dance.
But you can probably get We Cheer or We Cheer 2 used for cheap.

I love Donkey Kong Country. I have been playing it nonstop for Christmas.
If you can get a group of Wii friends, Super Mario Bros. is a lot of fun with multiple players. It's very chaotic but will probably having you laughing hysterically.
For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
When I'm not playing Wii Fit, I'm playing New Carnival Games that I got for Christmas. I also loved the original Carnival Games.
My H has been playing a lot of Epic Mickey and Donkey Kong Country Returns and I've heard him recommend both to others.
We got Donkey Kong Country Returns for Christmas too, and absolutely love it. It's so much fun. Also, if your H played DKC as a kid, I seriously bet he'd play the new one with you.
Still my favorite game for Wii is WarioWare Smooth Moves. It's fun with a bunch of people, but I play it alone a lot too. You could probably get it super cheap used. Another older one I loved was Trauma Center.
Definitely love Just Dance 2. I couldn't stop playing it after my cousin got it after Christmas.
The nerve!

Nope! All I have is the normal wiimote and nunchuk. It's a surgery game, you're a "resident" and there's a cheesy storyline where you basically perform different surgeries in a set amount of time.

Mr M and I found it helpful to play as a team. One person would play while the other person helped coach them. All those beeps get distracting.
Since your H is a snob, I'll volunteer my services. I can bring wine and the game.

Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
