    It's so good to hear that Zack & Wiki was too 'mainstream' for the list and is appreciated more by people, and delighted to see Muramasa: The Demon Blade and Elebits on here.
    My hidden gems for the Wii are: Disney Guilty Party, Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon, MySims Agents, Opoona, Spyborgs and Trauma Team.

    We gave our old Wii to our son for his 7th birthday and have since found some new games we didn't have way back. We're currently enjoying Super Paper Mario.
    The most obscure game we played was Another Code:R which was a sort of mystery point and click game. Pretty good.

      I did that for my nephews around the same age, but it was too complicated for them to use even though they really loved & enjoyed it. Later, I bought them a 360 & let them use my digital library, which ended up being a lot easier for them. The motion controls made it harder for them I guess.

    Dead Space: Extraction is a great game that caught me by surprise. I didn't play it on the Wii but on the PS3 because it came included in my copy of Dead Space 2: Limited Edition. I was expecting a boring on-rail shooter with a crappy side-story but was pleasantly surprised by how good and fun it was.
    P.S. Everyone normally dismisses it but Link's Crossbow Training (that came bundled with the Wii Zapper) is actually really good for what it is. I tried it out one day randomly due to boredom and I enjoyed it for the short time it lasted. It was a lot more fun than it ever had any right to be.

    may I please be allowed to induct an honorable mention? "Gunblade NY & LA Machineguns" by Sega! the absolute BEST (and, very uncharacteristic of me, I assure you: I will NOT accept debate or disagreement in this one matter) light-gun rail shooter ever made... and I'm talking about LAMG; GBNY is alright I guess! and both games are almost-arcade-perfect... if only they came with a peripheral that would imitate the incredible kickback that the arcade mounted guns had, which makes one feel badass just feeling it, then perfection would've been fully achieved! as it stands tho', it's a double whammy that deserves so much more love... and no longer having it in my collection makes me regret having to sell it and my WII every single second of my existence; I hate being poor!

    Deadly Creatures, Red Steel 2, The Conduit, Excitebots, Boom Blox, and the other Operation Rainfall games that aren't Xenoblade. Seriously, Xenoblade is my second favorite game ever behind Golden Sun, but it's been rereleased on Wii U, 3ds, and Switch. Meanwhile Pandora's Tower was only rereleased on Wii U, and The Last Story...well it never was rereleased.

    Disaster was pretty cool but I didn’t really care for the first person shooter sections plus not a fan of motion controls but it would be good if they remade the game on a modern console.

    Even though it was technically inferior the Wii has aged way better than PS3 and 360 in my opinion. Sure it had tons of shovelware, but also so many fun, unique and artistically pleasing games. I love 360 and PS3 too but they definitely skewed heavily toward bland grey and brown shooters about grumpy macho men.
