Zack & Wiki is one of the titles that take advantage of the Wii in ways you can't do on any other system. Every object in the game can be manipulated with the wii remote; tilt the remote and you'll tilt whatever you're holding. If it sounds confusing, then google up the Gametrailers.com video review. One look and you'll just get it; it's a very cool game.

This game may sound simple, but it's very well done. Most importantly, it's super fun. You use the wii remote to throw things by clicking on objects and moving the wii remote. What could become very simple never does; it's loaded with tons of modes, for one or many players. It's probably easier to google Gametrailers.com's video review; one look and you'll get it. Hopefully, you'll buy it too.

A great, original music game that uses the wii very well is SEGA's Samba De Amigo. Shake the wii remotes like maracas - simple, but trust me, it's fun. It's another really well produced title that also features new songs in the form of downloadable content; if you put your wii online, it's a nice way to extend the life of the game.

Since the Wii uses motion controls, some of the best games on the system are golf games. I actually can't think of a bad golf game for the Wii, but my personal vote goes to this. If you don't mind the cartoony style - it's similar to Hot Shots Golf on Playstation - then you'll have a blast. It's not quite 1:1 movement (every movement you make, the character makes), but it's intuitive nonetheless.

The Trauma Center games may not look like much, but they're a great use of the wii remote. Basically, you act as a surgeon and the wii remote acts as every one of the tools of you need to save lives. An experience that is unlike anything else on in gamedom - even the handheld versions of the same game on DS. I pick the first one because A) it's cheaper, and B)the second game is a lot harder.

SSX Blur is gorgeous - a great style plus excellent presentation go a long way here. Second, it's loaded with content. Third, it uses the wii controls nicely, as the tilt on the nunchuk is used to steer your rider. It may take awhile to get used to it, but the feeling is one that you can't replicate on the other systems. The game is very cheap now, so it's a perfect pickup for winter.

Okay, listen to me on this one; play it for a half hour before you judge it. Sonic and the Secret Rings is a really good game, that uses the Wii remote very well, but it's an slow starter. A cardinal sin for a SONIC game. Level him up a bit and the game starts to take off. Loads of missions, a solid single player campaign, a robust multiplayer party mode - the game is loaded with content.

This one's great because EVERYONE can play it - I've never seen anybody NOT have a blast with a Monkey Ball game. You maneuver a monkey in a plastic ball through a stage merely by tilting the wii remote, which rolls the monkey as well as tilts the stage. It's so simple, yet so much fun - the stages are crazy. Banana Blitz is loaded with features. Levels, boss fights, mini-games - it's got it all.

One of THE titles for any Wii owner over the age of 17. Hyper violent, very stylized, darkly funny, and very, VERY fun. It's a brawler - cut from the same cloth as classics like Streets of Rage - but the execution is closer to something like Tony Hawk, with an emphasis on combos. A very original game with a pretty big learning curve, but it's one of the best games for the Wii.

Along with Golf and Bowling, Wii Sports proved that Tennis is a no-brainer for the Wii's motion controls (when done well). SST is a great example of this; the controls are intuitive, responsive and immersive. The package is attractive as well; colorful, clean and well animated. Lots of content here rounds out things nicely, and it's all for 20 bucks. My pick for Wii Tennis game.

This features 16 Arcade games from SNK, which means they're really good, AND you probably haven't played any of them:) Absolutely classic gameplay; anyone can pick this up and have a good time. Fantastic range of games too - from action (Metal Slug) to sports (Super Sidekicks), there's something for everyone. A lot of multiplayer games too. A blast from the past, and a great value.
