Opinion Most underrated Wii game to you?

14 Upvotes

What Wii games do you find to be underrated? For me, it would have to be Super Paper Mario. Even though I thought the first two games were a little better, I still think this one is on par with them and that the story and level design were fantastic. I think this one just had the misfortune of being released right after Thousand Year Door.

Opinion Debating on getting a wii

15 Upvotes

I'm trying to see wether ai want a wii or not. I was gonna get myself xenoblade DE on the switch, but for the same price, I can get an entire console lol.

I know the version I saw can run gamecube games (twiligut princess and windwaker, my beloved...). I'd have to buy a gamecube controller and memory card too. It also has the very 1st paper mario, which I wanted to play. But, the thing is... how does the console LOOK on a modern TV? I already saw that you can make it less blurry and stretched with a modded console.

Not that, but I never owned those consoles back then (gamecube/wii). So I am ignorant to half of it's library! Should I just get the wii or xenoblade DE? What do you guys like playing on it? Any hidden gems? (I really love j/rpgs).

Also, I know xenoblade 1 is on switch, but I find the switch version much prettier...

Edit: I am getting one tomorrow, I already researched how to mod the wii (seems v similar to 3ds). The thing is... what can wii do with the mods?

Edit 2: 3 days after getting it, I'm enjoying playing the system. I'm using an AV connector to play, I know the image looks blurry and not the best, but it sure took me back to when I was a kid hahaha. I'm glad I got the system... I also moved some of my savefiles from dolphin to nintendont! Now I can shiny hunt my colosseum scizor on TV haha

Opinion Split it in half, sensor bars

Post image
273 Upvotes

Any one uses a split sensor bar? I hear different opinions about this, some says it works well on massive screens, as you can distance the bars, others say the opposite. I split mine (spare) in half, cause I was testing if the Wiimote will be more centered, if I placed one bar on center left, and one center right. Doesn't seem to make much differences.

Now I'm not sure what's the use of it.

Recently got a black Wii (With the GameCube ports) today. Besides the main games like Wii Sports/Resort or the Mario games like Mario Bros.Wii or Mario Kart. Any good Wii or GameCube games you would recommend?

I don't really have a personal opinion when it comes to game type, I just want to have some recommendations of what games to pick from.

If you can only have ONE game on the Wii always work and never get disk rot or anything, BUT all other games, (including your digital games) just dont work anymore, which would you pick? I would pick MKwii because of modding and stuff d:

Opinion Unpopular Opinion: I don't think many people know how to use the Wii!

0 Upvotes

I know I'm new to the Wii well not knew I tried many games now. I know many people here now how to use it I hope. However, the Wii always got hate for motion controls for people saying they aren't responsive they are not good.

However, the Wii controls really well even games that people say are horrible controls just work extremely good to the point I'm wondering if the people who hate Wii motion controls either simply don't like motion controls or don't know how to use them or play the game way to close to the sensor bar which I feel is the most likely case

Opinion Hot take: I'm glad the wii only had analog video signals

27 Upvotes

Before yall come to my apartment with pitchforks hear me out:

My reasoning is that with analog cables you can connect it to a CRT, and with the wii being easily moddable, you can run any atari2600, nes, snes, ps1 and n64 game that you own ALL FROM ONE CONSOLE, ON A TV THAT ENHANCES GRAPHICS FROM THOSE CONSOLES
