What are some good games for the Wii?

Super Smash Bros. Brawl is a great smash-em-up type game.

The Legend of Zelda - Twilight Princess and Super Mario Galaxy are great adventure games

This year (2010) there will be a game release called Red Steel 2, it uses the Wii remote as a gun and also as a sword. The original 'Red Steel' was an ok game and you can get it cheap these days.

I was able to finish Star Wars, the force unleashed in one day, so I wouldn't recommend buying it.

Wii Fit does have a weight limit of 150kg (330 lbs). If you do buy Wii Fit, make sure you get Wii Fit Plus. Its the same as Wii fit, but with more activities.

For Multiplayer games:

Mario Kart Wii

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

New Super Mario Bros. Wii

Call Of Duty 4 Modern Warfare Reflex Edition (though quite violent)

Wii Music (though not a great game)

Guitar Hero World Tour, 3, 5, or Band Hero

Mario and Sonic at the Olympic (Winter) Games

Wii Sports Resort (Very fun)

Single Player:

All of above

The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Metroid: Prime Series

Wii Fit/ Wii Fit Plus+

These are Most of the good games I can think of, of the ones I have. They are mostly multiplayer games, tho they are all good for single player as well.

Everyone's made great suggestions, I just wanted to add Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition, hands down one of the best games on the system. Of course, it's probably not something you want your daughter playing!

The No More Heroes series is also good stuff, but again, a hard M rating on those.

If you want some Sandbox type games, go for Bully: Scholarship Edition, Scarface and The Godfather. Proof positive that a GTA game CAN work on the Wii if Rockstar tried hard enough.

Also, for a fun arcade-y type racing game, Need For Speed: Nitro.

My top recommendations are as follows (In no particular order):

Super Mario Galaxy: GREAT game. Excellent replay value, immersive controls and an attractive interface makes for one of the best games that has come out on the Wii so far, in my opinion. It takes a few levels to really get used to the controls and its unique 3D interface, but it is a fantastic game.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. : Also a very good game. It doesn't have the replayability that some games have, but it has its merits. If you talk to people that have played the game on other consoles (mainly PS3) you may get jealous, as the storyline has been lazily executed in the Wii version, as well as the graphics. Don't listen to them. Although they are correct in some respects, (Krome got really lazy when making the Wii version), the sheer immersion of the controls and the way that you get to interact in the game is a gem. This will definitely give you a chance to mess around with the motion capabilities for the Wii. Also, there is a duel mode (one of my favorite things to do when I have friends over) so when you get tired of story mode you can still have lightsaber battles and force choke the **** out of people.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl : The Story mode is extensive and definitely replayable (especially with different levels of difficulty available). One of the best group games, in my opinion. Plenty of unlockables to satiate your gaming need for achievements (or so Microsoft seems to think). You can play as some of your favorite Nintendo Characters while unlocking an old friend from Sega. It doesn't lend much to the controls, but it is an all around great game. From storymode to group battles to online tournaments, this game is your friend.

Super Mario Bros Wii: I've always been sort of a Nintendo fangirl, and if you grew up with the 8-bit classics, this game will be like seeing an old friend after a long time...you feel all of the comfort of familiarity, your friend has gotten way sexier with time...but seems a little condescending. Sound like a HS reunion yet? The game itself is very vibrant and well done. It shows off the motion capabilities of the wii while keeping the familiarity/comfort factor in play at the same time. (They missed an opportunity by not making the classic controller compatible with the game) Multiplayer is fun, but can also ruin marriages so I caution you, lol ^_^. Try not to throw people into the lava too many times...it gets ugly.

Wii Play: I know that you said you are tired of minigames, but this is a good game. The choices are well-rounded (with a shooting game, billiards, and laser hockey being a few) and it is fun to play with other people.

Zelda- Twilight Princess: You should own this game. SUCH a great RPG. In my opinion, it is right up there with Ocarina of Time. I'm not even going to waste time describing this game, because it would ruin it. If you are a self-respecting gamer you will play this game.

Otherwise I would suggest renting games at your local video rental store to get an idea of what you would like first. Games are an investment. They are your friend. Good luck and enjoy!

Also...the Wii fit board has a weight limit of 300lbs. It is worthwhile for games that would require the board (such as snowboarding games and the like). If you are looking for a way to lose weight with the Wii, there are games that do not require the Wii Fit board and are just as effective.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii - is great for a family. It's a really fun game, and it's extremely addicting.

Wii Sports Resort - Good game, Wii Motion Plus, but after a week or so it gets very boring (Same with Wii Fit)

Super Mario Galaxy - good graphics, single player. i doubt you'll finish this game. ha-ha.

Wii Music - Nintendo's little secret...lol

There are some Star-Wars games out there. I hope this helped! :D
