Depends on the style of game you like but

Super Mario Galaxy
Metroid Prime : Corruption
Zelda : Twilight Princess
Zack & Wiki

All have received universally better acclaim than any of the ones you listed.



I also like Super Paper Mario, Big Brain Academy, Boogie, My Sims and WiiWare... but we have different tastes obviously going on the ones you listed.

Get the Wii Zapper - comes with a game and fun for the price...

Agree and get resident evil if you're a fan of the series

All the Nintendo software titles and Zack and Wiki and UC.

The most played for me are:
Galaxy
Excite Truck
Medal of Honor
Metroid Prime
Zelda TP
Zack and Wiki
Rayman Raving Rabids
ReUC

I have about 10-15 more too that are almost as fun as these but not quite.

Out of the ones you list, Medal of Honor: Heroes 2.

But I'd take (in this order) Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda: Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime 3, or Mario Strikers Charged over any of those any day.

there are some great looking games out on the wii but i just can't get into the kinda mario/zelda games i have tryed but they dont appeal to me im more into the fps,3rd person kinda games.

[Much Ado]

Zak and Wiki isn't available in the UK just yet, but i'm told it's good.

If it's any consolation, i never found the Zelda/Metroid formula particularly fun either. Room-by-room action with lots of cutscenes died when they invented Half-Life 2, for me.

[spoon man]

has anyone played with the wii zapper and what game can you get for it ?

[spyker3292]

Get medal of honor, maybe with the zapper too. And Mario Galaxy, Metroid, and maybe Battalion Wars 2 (and of course Brawl, Mario Kart, and maybe No More Heroes when they come out).

Pick up MoH2. It's a good typical FPS. The closest on a Wii I've played to what I'm more familiar with, besides the tardastic AI that goes between GI-Joe violence to super snipers. The game is fun though and that's all that really matters to me.

You already have RE4, I hope you've got into that game, if not, play it until you DO! For me it was a blast, the most fun I've had in years with a console game.

I have a Zapper, eh. If you have small hands maybe it's practical, but it definitely was not designed by anyone that's actually shot or held a real gun -- maybe this was intentional to keep it like a toy.

Zelda has cutscenes?

[pcypert]

And Halo was the as much or more than a room by roomish cut scene type game as the ones listed. Are you saying with the multi player of Halo 2 or something? Because there were plenty of cut scenes used to tell the horrible story :)

Half Life is completely different though, it doesn't run cutscenes per se, they take place from Gordon's POV. Fantastic direction.
When you hit Hyrule field the cutscenes in Zelda games just drops right down and since it's a 3rd person game anyways the POV direction is moot.
