Recommended Wii games

I don't have one, but here is some i loved playing:

• Resident Evil zero

• Pokemon battle revolution

• Every top has Legend of Zelda's games, because they are all a must play in the wii

Xenoblade Chronicles

Call of Duty 3

all the usual nintendo games: Mario karts, Galaxys, smash bros etc..

This one is on of my favorites: Fragile Dreams: Farewell ruins of the moon

Metroid Prime Trilogy
Punch-Out
Xenoblade Chronicles
Pandora's Tower
Madworld
The Last Story
Dead Space: Extraction (very underrated)
Resident evil 4 Wii Edition (improved controls compared to all other versions)
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Silent Hill: Shattered Memories
Muramasa
No More Heroes 1+2
GoldenEye 007

but yeah, you have to play Mario Galaxy 1+2 and Zelda: Skyward Sword, of course. They're some of the best games ever made.

wii sports. There is also the wii sports party that adds in fencing and a couple other things. For the most part I didn't enjoy anything else on the wii as the controls are just stupid.

Muramasa

Sengoku Basara

Since you probably don't want games that are on every list I'll name some more obscure ones (well mixed with some games that didn't sell well).

Little King's Story
Fragile: Farewell Ruins of the Moon (it's pretty good from a story telling perspective)
Metroid Prime Trilogy (sorry couldn't help myself)
Resident Evil 4 (seriously though the motion controls pretty much make the game better same as Metroid Prime Trilogy)
Red Steel 2 (uh I'd avoid the first one though)
Excitebots: Trick Racing
MadWorld (if you like Platinum Games stuff)
No More Heroes (both, they each have their own pros and cons)
de Blob
Dokapon Kingdom (better if you have people to mess with, think of it as a cross between a traditional JRPG and monopoly)

There are also a number of pretty good Wii Shop Channel games if you're willing to investigate reviews. You can get a bunch of freebies now if you can find Club Nintendo coins to redeem, as Club Nintendo has expanded their rewards to go with the closing of the program (just make sure you check the website as there's a deadline to get your coins and another deadline for redeeming them for rewards).

In addition, there's a pretty big library of Gamecube games you could go back to as well (as long as you got a Wii with backwards compatibility)

I don't know many Wii games, but I'd go for Castlevania: ReBirth and La-Mulana (Both are extremely challenging, and the latter is almost impossible to beat without a walkthrough.). Heard No More Heroes is good. I'm sure Wario Ware: Smooth Moves must be pretty good.

Do you mean a Wii? Or a Wii U?

Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn

Obviously, yes, both Super Mario Galaxy games and both Zelda games are stunningly good. Aside from those (in no particular order):

• Fire Emlem: Radiant Dawn
• Red Steel 2
• Metroid Prime Trilogy
• Goldeneye 007
• Super Smash Bros. Brawl
• The Last Story (probably, I just barely started it myself)
• Tiger Woods PGA Tour '12: The Masters
• Wii Sports Resort, believe it or not
• Mario Kart Wii

And, pay attention, this one is ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY, the most important one: Xenoblade Chronicles.

Why didn't you just get a Wii U ? It plays all Wii games too.
Anyway:
Zelda TP & SS
Xenoblade Chronicles
Mario Galaxy 1 & 2
MadWorld
No More Heroes 1 & 2
etc. there's a lot of great Wii games out there

• The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
• The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (not a Wii exclusive, but still...)
• Monster Hunter Tri (unplayable as now since the servers closed)
• Super Mario Galaxy
• Super Smash Bros. Brawl

New Super Mario Bros. - great platform with classic content

If you don't have access to a PS3, I'd say Okami is absolutely a must-play. The pointer controls are fantastic.
Also, No More Heroes was a weird but great game.
Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure is a great little puzzle game that no one played.
And although it was on other platforms, and the graphics are pretty bad, The Godfather: Blackhand Edition had more content that the other versions and had some of the best controls I've ever used.

Time to look through my collection:

• Calling
• Crash of the Titans (If you were a fan of Crash Bandicoot back in the day)
• Disney Epic Mickey
• Fatal Frame 4
• Final Fantasy: Crystal Bearers
• Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
• Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon
• Harvest Moon (Animal Parade, Tree of Tranquility)
• Just Dance (any in the series)
• Little King's Story
• Lost in Blue: Shipwrecked (The DS series was better, IMO)
• Metroid Prime 3
• Monster Hunter Tri
• Muramasa
• Okami
• Pikmin 2
• Raving Rabbids (Go Home, TV Party, etc)
• Silent Hill: Shattered Memories
• Super Smash Bros Brawl
• The Last Story
• Xenoblade Chronicles
  (Skipped all the typical Mario/Legend of Zelda franchises).

Not sure which genre you're into, but hopefully you find something you like from my list! <3

I personally liked all of the games. They each had their own unique features~
