The Wii opened gaming to everyone with its motion controller and a worldwide smash: Wii Sports, Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda Skyward Sword, Super Smash Bros. Brawl. This Top 50 gathers the console's best, re-tested and re-ranked by RomWize, each title with its re-evaluated score, its versions, their rarity and their collector value.
"Visceral and EA rail shooter set in the Dead Space universe. Precise pointer aim, tight prologue narrative, two-player local co-op. An ambitious Wii exclusive that delivers for genre fans, recommended for SF horror lovers."
"Steven Spielberg and EA physics puzzler tailored for the Wiimote. Throw, demolish, stack blocks with rock-solid physics, four-player local multi. A clever party game that really uses motion control, still fun today."
"Cult Nintendo rhythm game with minigames in sync with the music. One-button play, perfect timing, irresistible cartoon charm. Two-player local multi, brilliant party game and still one of the best Wii titles to discover today."
"Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 on Wii with Wii MotionPlus for more precision. Excellent iteration with MotionPlus for realistic swings, one of the best golf simulations on Wii."
"PES 2009 on Wii with 2008-2009 season teams and competitions. Notable improvement over the first Wii title, more polished motion controls, interesting football experience on the console."
"Wii rerelease for Mario's 25th anniversary, compilation of Super Mario Bros, Lost Levels, Mario 2, Mario 3 and Mario World (depending on versions). SNES Super Mario All-Stars HD remasters, plus 32-page illustrated booklet on Mario history. Very desirable limited collector edition, no real gameplay revolution but max nostalgia. For Mario fans wanting classics on one disc."
"Trauma Team changes the Trauma Center formula by following seven doctors with different specialties in a hospital drama. Surgery, diagnosis, first response, forensics, each specialty has its own gameplay with dedicated Wiimote control. TV-series-style episodic storytelling, plot thickens steadily. Tense, educational and surprisingly moving. Atlus knows how to tell a medical story beyond scalpel simulation. Series peak."
"Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 on Wii with Ryder Cup teams. Wii series continuity with MotionPlus, enriched content with Ryder Cup, solid golf simulation for fans."
"Revolution point-and-click reissue with new scenes and Wiimote controls. Templar adventure spanning Paris, Syria and Scotland, brilliant writing, polished English dub. An excellent gateway to Revolution Software's classic series."
"Bandai Namco remake of the PS1 Klonoa on Wii. 2.5D platforming, intact charm, redone voice work, smoother accessibility. An excellent gateway to the Klonoa series, strongly recommended to classic platformer fans."
