Recommend me some Wii games

[3sixty]

Started playing the Wii again now that I've got some free time after finishing my degree and the house renovation.

I've currently got the usuals, Wii Sports/Play, Mario Galaxy, Mario/Sonic Olympics and Mario Kart. Also got Lego Indiana Jones and House of Dead, but both these felt a bit short.

I'm not really fussed on game type, I like most things. I'm after something which is going to engross me for a while, perhaps RPG of some sort? I've never been a fan of Zelda, but this looks like the only 'good' one for the console, anyone else any suggestions? Or any other Wii games which are a 'must have'?

-Edit to add- I dont have a Wiifit board, so discount any games which require that

conduit - its there latest FPS'er

ghostbusters

Transformers (new one)

[Asterix]

IS Mario Kart any good?

We've got a Wii but vary rarely stray form the tennis or bowling, although the missus does the balance stuff etc...

Would MK be fun for a non-serioius gamer such as she - rather than my full on xBox stuff?

[3sixty]

Just looked. Conduit looks good. I can only find non-gameplay trailers for Ghostbusters and transformers which always worries me. Why use not in game video and all this cgi stuff?

[3sixty]

For some reason i can't edit my previous one to add this. Anyway, mario kart is good, but gets repetitive quickly for me. Although it may 'last' a little longer if you're a casual gamer

Virtua Tennis is supposed to be good fun...

[paul99]

Punch Out is good fun, can also use the Wii fit board with it, also try Madworld.

[A1GOY]

Madworld. Black, white and red visuals. Creative killing and plenty of 'ooooooooooooo, nasty' moments. It's ace!

[Carfiend]

Mario Kart. Get some steering wheel addons and a few mates and it is a riot. Has all the old tracks from every Mario Kart game from the Snes to the Gameboy versions.

[3sixty]

Virtua Tennis - theres only so much of Tennis I can play already having Wii Sports.

Will look up Madworld.

As stated above, already have Mario Kart.

[Goochie]

Need For Speed, Undercover is quite good. Your mates will slag it off for not having PS3 or X-Box graphics but the gameplay with the wheel makes it great fun.

I got it for Christmas and have since completed it but I was hooked for a couple of months.

Ah find a copy of Marios Strikers Football. Basically 5 a side with Mario characters mixed with violence and a heavy metal sound track.

Maybe I just imagined it...

[3sixty]

Was actually looking at Mario Strikers yesterday. I like football, and enjoyed NBA/NFL Street on my PS2. (Do they do NBA/NFL street for Wii?)

[J-Tuner]

Try boom blox - created by steven speilberg and great fun when played with others. No online option though. I picked it up for a tenner and its got great replay value. Mario kart is also good online.

Also i play Drum King - think guitar hero but with drums. Thats a good laugh and good soundtrack to boot - turn the volume up

EDIT: Forgot to add - try Raving Rabids 2 etc.. !! They are excellent.

Blockbuster have just started renting out Wii games too - so you can try before you buy.

[Joda Cast]

Ive been playing Okami and Mad World lately. Both good fun.

[Legmaster]

World of Goo via Wiiware download. Great game and you can use your free Wii points up.

Amazingly simple, addictive and at times bloody annoying...

[A1GOY]

De Blob is pretty sweet, too. Lots of bouncing around, not doing much.

[3sixty]

Mad World seems a little disappointing, once past the gory fun... theres not much else to it.

Any suggestions for a really involving RPG?

Okami or Zelda would be my choices.
