    I think you could make another Wii Hidden Gems video or two! A few suggestions:
    Another Code R: A Journey into Lost Memories -- Remember Trace Memory on the DS? It got a sequel, but it was never released in the west, which is a shame because I've heard good things.
    Arc Rise Fantasia -- A decent RPG with good music, a solid story, and a surprisingly deep turn-based combat system rivaling even Xenoblade Chronicles (yeah, I said it!). The voice-acting is some of the worst you will ever hear and it's almost worth picking up for the laughs alone. Almost.
    Bomberman Land -- Play for the Classic Mode, which is the same multiplayer Bomberman we all know and love. Avoid the Story Mode.
    Castle of Shikigami III -- I don't play a lot of shmups, but I quite enjoy this one.
    Cate West: The Vanishing Files -- Another fun puzzle-adventure game. Not the best, but if you like story-heavy adventure games...
    Data East Arcade Classics -- An absolute MUST HAVE!!! Includes classics like BurgerTime, Peter Pepper's Ice Cream Factory, Caveman Ninja, Bad Dudes vs. Dragon Ninja, Magical Drop III, Wizard Fire, and lots more.
    Deadly Creatures -- Solid action game where you play as a scorpion and a tarantula and fight other desert critters. Billy Bob Thornton and Dennis Hopper are in this game and you play as background characters in their story.
    Dewy's Adventure -- You play as a drop of water and move around the stage by tilting the WiiMote. You can freeze or turn yourself into steam to navigate and fight baddies. The controls are a bit of a challenge and it's definitely more for younger gamers, but it's a good time.
    Dokapon Kingdom -- This is a 4-player board game/RPG. Weird, right? As a result of this mixture, each game takes quite a few hours to complete, so it walks that line between casual (longer and more involved than Mario Party) and hardcore (not as demanding as WoW or other MMORPGs). You can see why it was a niche title. It got a PS2 release as well.
    Elebits -- This one's weird, but fun. It's a first-person shooter, but your gadget captures little elebits that hang out around your house (yeah, kinda like Pokemon) and lifts objects from afar. Plenty of puzzle-solving and even though the story is for kids, this game gets surprisingly challenging.
    Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon -- It's a dungeon crawler and you play a chocobo. Need I say more?
    Fortune Street -- Another board game, er, game, and pretty straightforward. Probably will end fewer friendships than Dokapon Kingdom or Mario Party. Speaking of Mario, he and his crew are playable characters and so are the heroes from Dragon Quest VIII, making for one of the stranger crossover titles.
    Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon -- One of the most atmospheric games on the Wii. Beautiful graphics, captivating story, interesting characters, a post-apocalyptic setting, and some legitimate scares throughout.
    Geometry Wars: Galaxies -- A bright, colorful arcade shooter that actually makes good use of the Wii controls.
    Ivy the Kiwi? -- Despite its kiddy story and storybook aesthetic, this is one of the hardest games on the Wii. It was made by Yuji Naka, who created Sonic the Hedgehog. The co-op is an absolute delight, but prepare to lose. A lot.
    Klonoa -- It's Door to Phantomile (a 2.5D platformer for the PS1) but with updated graphics, music, and new voice acting. No point in having both since they're so similar, but if you need a physical copy of the game, this one's much easier to find than the original.
    The Last Story -- Definitely the weakest of the Operation Rainfall three, but still a solid JRPG. Nobuo Uematsu composed the soundtrack, so that's a plus.
    Little King's Story -- Again, looks like a kid's game, but is surprisingly dark. As a little king, you manage resources, build your town, all that fun stuff, and then you lead your people into battle to conquer neighboring colonies until you rule everything! Mwahaha!
    Mercury Meltdown Revolution -- Do you like Marble Madness? Then you'll probably enjoy this one.
    Mystery Case Files: The Malgrave Incident -- Similar to Cate West, but better.
    Nights: Journey of Dreams -- Probably more of a nostalgic pick here, since the controls aren't great (whatever you do, don't play this with the motion controls) but it's a Nights game, and we don't get enough of those.
    Pinball Hall of Fame: The Gottlieb Collection and The Williams Collection -- If you like pinball games, here are a few dozen.
    Rune Factory: Frontier -- A solid entry in the Rune Factory series, itself kind of a hidden gem. Best enjoyed if you've already played another entry, as the mechanics aren't explained very well, but it's still a very rewarding experience if you put in the time.
    Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love -- This one also came out of the PS2. It's a tactical RPG/dating sim involving mechs. The story is epic and the maps are insane! Probably the most anime game on this list.
    Silent Hill: Shattered Memories -- Definitely a departure from the standard atmospheric survival horror titles one might expect from this series, as it's more of an action-adventure. However, there's no combat in this game. You're completely defenseless, meaning you're exploring spooky locations and getting chased around all while trying not to die. Not the best Silent Hill game, but a good time.
    Spectrobes Origins -- The best (and last) of the Spectrobes series. An action-adventure where you recruit monsters to fight alongside you and switch between them mid-battle to gain the upper hand. Kind of a primitive version of the Blade system in Xenoblade Chronicles 2.
    Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World -- No, it's not as good as the first one, but still a solid Tales entry.
    Tornado Outbreak -- It's like Katamari Damacy, except you control a tornado and the more things you suck up, the bigger and more devastating you become. Also, there are boss battles.
    Trauma Team (or really, any of the Trauma Center games) -- These were stylus-heavy games on the DS where you performed surgery on patients and as you might expect, these versions use the WiiMote, and pretty well at that!
    Ultimate Shooting Collection -- I think you mentioned this in one of your GameCube videos, but it's three games: Radio Allergy, Karous, and Chaos Field. Shmup fans will want to check it out!
    Vertigo -- You remember those ball-rolling levels from Mario Galaxy. It's like those, except it controls much better and emphasizes speed with precision. It's tough, but much less slippery than Mario Galaxy.
    Wario Land: Shake It! -- Possibly the best Wario game, and no one played it.

Taste the hammers of justice you nefarious ruffians! Also, Dino Strike is a fun light gun game.

And suddenly it came out! But the publisher released a new version the developers were never told about. While I am proud of my collector's edition as the extra stuff is pretty cool, am I most proud having the Wii version..! I even imported a Japanese copy because there they came in separate boxes..!

      @Hartior 4 года назад +2

      For what I've heard, there was two companies working in this game. The Wii original version was made by Prope (a company founded by Yuji Naka, of Sonic's fame) and the 3DS version who was handled by Kadokawa Games (the games publisher). The idea was to release the Wii and the 3DS version at the same time, and while the Wii version was finished in 2011, Kadokawa took too long to finish the 3DS version, in 2015 with the successor of the Wii (Wii U) in the market. So, Kadokawa ended up porting their version to the Wii U and releasing the original Wii version as an extra for the special edition

      @TeruteruBozusama 4 года назад +1

      @Darth Wheezius agreed, the differences are that big. The Wii U version has a little more features than most shovelware but still very meh. And how did they manage to make the graphics for a HD console worse than the Wii graphics?!
      And sweet! I have about 30 physical Wii U games (and some digital), but I think I'll stick to quality over quantity, but I can see the appeal of collecting everything for the smaller Nintendo consoles. Some go for all Wii games and and a friend of mine tries getting all American DS games and filling in with some weird exclusives here and there.

    I'm still playing my wii too, it's an awesome system, I normally pop it on to play some NES for a little bit but still gets a lot of use. So please keep making these kind of videos, I have picked up games from local pawn shops and such based on your recommendations and have not been dissapointed, so keep up the good work, and rock on!

    Great video! I don't know if you have previously mentioned but, "Ghostbusters The Video Game" is pretty good. Features the original casts voice acting, and is just overall fun game.
    Also "Rapala We Fish" is also really good and appeals to a wider audience than fishermen. The graphics are cartoonish and it has elements of cart games, where you can shoot your fellow tournamen contestants with different stuff to make them lose their catch. Really different type of game. Worth checking out for sure

    Great video and timing. Started playing a bunch of Wii again lately, mostly light gun shooters. LA Machineguns, NY Gunblade, House of the Dead 3 and Target Terror (got a lot of hate, but a fun game!). Wish they were still releasing on-rails light gun shooters on modern consoles besides VR (they missed a golden opportunity on Wii U. Would've been the perfect system/platform. Same control schemes as Wii, but in HD).

  • @Andrew-pc2ks
    @Andrew-pc2ks 4 года назад

    I have personally have played 4/9 of these games. Those would be NFS Nitro, Ice Age, Penguins of Madagascar, and Titanic. That being said...
    1. I am a gaming freak. I still play my wii, psp, and wii u.
    2. The only reason I have played the licensed titles is because I have a 9 year old daughter
    3. I had no idea that Pirates, Godzilla, and Hot Wheels where worth my time. I definitely will be checking those out.
    So do I think that this is it for hidden gems on the Wii? No way. But even if you think it is I have found so many titles on so many systems from these videos and I appreciate the time put into it. Thanks you Jason, and the whole MJR crew.

    The best thing about the Wii when retro gaming is concerned is that it is truly the last retro games console. This is because it runs games at native 4:3 resolution (some games have anamorphic widescreen). Playing a Wii on a CRT via RGB (or S-Video for you unlucky Yankees) is something special.

    Have you played "Ivy the Kiwi?" though? I discovered it at a Gamestop and the 2D art style was impressive.
    I wanted to get it, but they priced it at around $20 or $25. I wish I did though, because it sells for more than that on ebay. Ah well, it's for the best (for my wallet's sake).
