I'm curious I generally don't touch the Wii aside from to play Virtual Console games. But is it safe to assume most of the Wiiware games have been crap?

There's a large amount of shovelware, but there are a few gems to be found. World of Goo, or the Bit Trip or Artstyle games are good Wii exclusives.

Just a note that World of Goo is also out on the PC (and has been included in a bunch of steam bundles already). I'm not aware of any exclusives for the Wii version, either.

If you don't already own the Phoenix Wright games, they've got the first three. I'd also say that if you give a shit, Final Fantasy IV: After Years isn't bad. Just annoying once you hit the moon.



Also Cave Story.

Nintendo is just mocking us now. "Let's release Superman 64, that'll show them to complain about our lack of releases!"

Fuck you, FFMQ is awesome.

Mystic Quest is pretty freaking rad.

So we got Final Fantasy then Final Fantasy II and now Mystic Quest... is Square intentionally releasing them in their original release order?
