Board 8 > Late Wii Owner

(+) Yeah! (+)

So I do have a little experience with the wii but I just got my own system about a week ago.
I got the motion plus version that came with Super Mario Bros. I also got

Zelda TP
Zelda SS
Mario Galaxy
Resident Evil 4

What other must have games should I get?

If you like Galaxy, get Galaxy 2. It's just as good. Grab Xenoblade while you still can if you're here in the Americas. Fire Emblem 10 is pretty good if you're into that. New Super Mario Bros is good fun as well. As is Brawl.

Kirby's Epic Yarn because it makes every single bad feelings go away.

Cures depression too I'm sure.

What do you guys think about

Golden eye 007 Reloaded
Metroid Other M

I love Other M - great gameplay, just ignore the story
Goldeneye's alright, definitely one of the better Wii shooters (... basically just GE vs Conduits... I'd actually go with the Conduits)

If you live in Europe or are willing to mod your Wii to play import games you should get the Fatal Frame 2 remake.

I missed it...I don't exactly pay attention to everything on E3. Although I did eventually watch
the Micrsoft,Sony and Nintendo conferences. O well I am not in a huge rush to get the Wii U at launch.

Is Other M Really as bad as I have heard?

It isn't, but I have no idea how GMUN has it in his top 25 games. It's only "bad" compared to Super Metroid, Prime, and Echoes.

Then again, I'm the guy who prefers Other M to Brawl and Majora's Mask (although neither of the latter two is my kind of game).

My input:

Highest Priority - Super Mario Galaxy & Twilight Princess
Next-Highest - Super Mario Galaxy 2 & Resident Evil 4
Get at Some Point - Metroid Prime 3
On-The-Fence - New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Metroid: Other M, Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Avoid - Mario Kart Wii

I have never played Skyward Sword, Xenoblade, DKCR, or either Kirby game, and I'm not exactly all that interested in any of them aside from maybe Zelda. I just got a PS3 yesterday evening, as a matter of fact.

Actually, the list of Wii games I'm most interested in is best symbolized by ScottishDuck17's top 10 (and the Wii is his favorite current-gen console BTW):

10) Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon
9) Sin & Punishment: Star Successor
8) Sonic Colors
7) The House of the Dead: Overkill
6) Okami
5) A Boy and His Blob
4) The Last Story
3) The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
2) NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams
1) Super Mario Galaxy

Looks like are highest priorities are the same. I got all of those except Galaxy 2 already

I think for Metroid I will be getting the Trilogy and Other M.

I also am considering possibly getting Epic Mickey..looks pretty fun to me

Brawl
Galaxy 2
No More Heroes
Punch-Out
Tatsunoko vs Capcom

other m is god awful, don't listen to LMS he doesn't actually play video games he looks up reviews and metacritic ratings and argues based on that lol

if you're REALLY curious I implore you to buy it used, don't buy a new copy and encourage nintendo to put out more garbage like that

Rhythm Heaven Fever. You should definitely get it.

Other M is "god awful" compared to Super Metroid, Prime, and Echoes. There is nothing wrong with being "god awful" compared to some of the best games ever.

other m is awful by any standards, even the incredibly low bar that the wii has set for it's library.

Tatsunoko vs Capcom - So awesome, best fighter of this console generation.
No More Heroes - Fun, and silly.

SegMlCassieIsAmazingjhsux~>[64T2jampXDpikaness is awesome!8forgaMike RSmurf is too!

Well Super Mario Galaxy is my favorite Mario and Twilight Princess is my third favorite Zelda (slightly behind Ocarina of Time and The Wind Waker with A Link to the Past being a close fourth and Majora's Mask a very distant fifth).

Ironically enough, I'm right now playing a game that's somewhat reminiscent of Other M in that its combat is kinda repetitive but very satisfying anyway, and that its camera perspective is pretty similar. Its name is Ico.

My only really big complaints with Other M are lack of gameplay variety and no new power-ups. The story is very disappointing but also surprisingly easy to ignore (at least I felt that way when I watched an LP of it back in January) and quite frankly it would actually be really good if it wasn't for an absolutely horrible script (the only thing outright bad about the game...and there's a LOT I'd do to "fix" Other M before I changed its story or script, or even made the game less linear), total lack of focus, and abundance of undue melodrama.

So yeah, the #1 thing I'd do to fix Other M would be adding rail shooter and vehicle sections.

oh man, it's classic LMS post

"Ironically enough" and "Other M:" all in one post

I hope it still has Gamecube support.

To get in on the fun, Other M is not THAT bad.
People really need to chill out with that game.

This is pretty much what fans of the series view the game to be. In the case of the story, rightfully so, but ONLY because it was marketed to "be the final statement on Samus's characterization". When I watched an LP of the game in January, I didn't feel that Other M even tried to do that - instead just introducing ideas and doing very little with them. Hardly a "last word".

So if you're going to play Other M, don't go into it with any story-based expectations, because you will be disappointed - the story lacks focus and the script is horrible (the only thing outright bad about the game IMO) and creates a somewhat abundance of undue melodrama. And I don't like the game's portrayal of Samus, although who the heck does? But I also find the story surprisingly easy to ignore since...well, 1.5-hour breaks between cutscenes in a 12-hour game, and cutscenes aren't as long as the 30-minute chatfests I've heard are found in games like Metal Gear Solid 4 and Star Ocean 4.

I don't feel that Other M is a story-heavy game at all, although I do feel that it WANTS to be story-heavy. I also feel as if a cutscene or two was haphazardly thrown out.

GMUN, I've been discussing my thoughts on Other M with a YouTube user by the name of LordXamot. If you want, I can let you in on what we've been discussing.
