my steel is getting red - DaDiggydiggyDOC, on 08/07/2008, -22/+81Wii music? That isn't a game its a joke IMO. You'd hope that the console that sells so many could round up some real worth while games. 21 games???...I could count all the ones I like on 1 hand... :( I like my Wii for when people who don't play games come over, but sadly for me the console doesn't keep my attention for long, and even though I own one( mostly for my daughter) I still struggle to understand why it sells other than the price?
- DawgMan93, on 08/07/2008, -5/+48Bikini Zombie Slayers? Really?
- FXPooky, on 08/07/2008, -16/+53Makes me glad I own a 360 :P
- jidusnoot, on 08/07/2008, -5/+41Dugg for picture.
- MikeSetera, on 08/07/2008, -7/+39As a Wii owner from day one, these games suck balls. The only thing I'm legitimately excited about is GH World Tour.. but I'm seriously considering selling my Wii on ebay and getting a 360.
- ThePwnyExpress, on 08/07/2008, -1/+23no new zelda?...
- dlrudden, on 08/07/2008, -0/+20that's because it's a countdown.
- TinternAbbot, on 08/07/2008, -4/+24Why not just import Portal?
- YancyFryJr, on 08/07/2008, -6/+25As a hardcore player, I'm happy to know that Animal Crossing is being released for the Wii. That, in and of itself, puts all of my concerns to rest.

- inactive, on 08/07/2008, -1/+16WTF??? Gamepro still exists???
- erichw1504, on 08/07/2008, -5/+20What about Super Mario Multiverse?
- illcendiary, on 08/07/2008, -5/+20Wii Zapper support? I'm sure it took a ton of programming on their part to get the controller to fit in a plastic shell.
- mywhitenoise, on 08/07/2008, -6/+18The fact that you have nintendogs humping each other as your avatar proves yours.
- samfishercell, on 08/07/2008, -3/+14Same. I bought a Wii on day one and really enjoyed Twilight, Galaxy, Zack and Wiki, and some others...but the outlook now is depressing. (I'm looking at YOU, Nintendo E3 press conference...) At this point, most of the games I want play (without shoehorned waggle-gimmick controls for the sake of having them) and look better on other systems.
Wii Music? Mario Super Sluggers? I'm a Nintendo fan, but honestly, these suck. Where's Pikmin? A new Kirby? A WiiWare New Super Mario Brothers-esque game?
The decision isn't final yet, but that Xbox360 is looking mighty tempting. - NikoKun, on 08/07/2008, -1/+11I think I've already played "de Blob" Wasn't that a freeware game for a while back?
I remember some game where you're a giant growing ink-blob, rolling around a city. - dantsai, on 08/07/2008, -0/+10Yep. I think wikipedia says it best:
"de Blob was originally developed as a free downloadable game for the Windows PC by eight students studying Game Design & Development at the Utrecht School of the Arts and one student studying Game and Media Technology at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. At the time of conception, sections of Utrecht were being rebuilt and the principal task in creating the game was to convey how the railroad station area of Utrecht would look in 10 years. The city of Utrecht has adopted the de Blob character as its mascot.[4] THQ noticed the game and was very impressed with the team's work, and acquired the rights to the game. THQ handed over the game to Blue Tongue and Helixe and the companies each developed their own versions for different consoles."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Blob#History - getatmedigg, on 08/07/2008, -2/+12There's better games on the Virtual Console than that game list.
- chrisinsocalif, on 08/07/2008, -1/+11I was going to digg it for the hot asian girl with the katana sword, but a closer look reveals its only Tila Tequila. Good from far....far from good.
- ModX, on 08/07/2008, -8/+17A list of ports and rehashes. /yawn
Some original content in there, but overall severely disappointing for Wii fans.
My PC will get the bulk of my attention this fall.
I might pick up Animal Crossing to distract my girlfriend. - Haroshia, on 08/07/2008, -0/+9That's because she is...
http://digg.com/people/The_Top_100_Hottest_Women_o ... - inactive, on 08/07/2008, -14/+23More like to yawn over, ***** Nintendo i'm sick of their *****, this mainstream approachis the worst thing. they could've atleast keep their hardcore titles good but look how they ***** up mariokart.Where is my innovative gameplay NINTENDO.
I'm going back to the PC.
/former nintendofan - BadseedJR, on 08/07/2008, -1/+10You do realize that the Wii was not ever slated to be a hardcore gaming console, right? It's more for clean, family oriented fun and entertainment. It serves its purpose, but if you want cutting edge games, you need to have one of the other consoles also. I own a Wii, and a PS3. I love them both.
- EdwardMass, on 08/07/2008, -1/+10Here's to anything made by the remnants of Clover Studios. Mad World will be incredible.
- Loxias, on 08/07/2008, -1/+9I still think No More Heroes is a good game(if you want to call it that, it was more like boss fights and cut scenes connected by stuff you'd rather forget), yes it was a button masher, yes the sandbox world didn't fit in and sucked, but I liked the game for what it really was, a short funny parody of shonen anime. And I'm glad they want to make a sequel, because maybe with all the attention they've gotten they'll fix everything they ***** up in the first one and It will be the awesome game that all the hype from first one had you expecting, or maybe all the hype went to their heads and It will just be the first one with new bosses.
/rant - infinitus64, on 08/07/2008, -0/+8then stop stroking it.
- EelfinnTy, on 08/07/2008, -0/+8MadWorld and The Conduit both look really good, but the first page of the list is pointless.
- austin006, on 08/07/2008, -3/+11ahh of course. games are always so awesome before they come out.
and then they do
and then suck - tee349, on 08/07/2008, -7/+15What the *****? Is that Tila Tequila on the red steel banner?
And I will never buy another red steel game again. Ever. - mywhitenoise, on 08/07/2008, -1/+8Not when you ask like an idiot.
- Haroshia, on 08/07/2008, -0/+7Except it is Tila Tequila from a Maxim photoshoot that was on Digg a few months ago.
http://digg.com/people/The_Top_100_Hottest_Women_o ... - vogelshock, on 08/07/2008, -1/+7only not a dirty skank.
- johnomaz, on 08/07/2008, -2/+8Tila Tequila or not, PhotoShop was her friend in that pic, and she shot as ***** in it too.
- johnomaz, on 08/07/2008, -2/+8I'll rent it =)
- Mayday, on 08/07/2008, -1/+7Bury me if you will, but I think people take video games a little too seriously. I have no problem if you don't like the Wii. But some people do enjoy the system and would be interested in this list. Like it or not, the Wii is the number one selling console on the market so this list is definitely worthy to be on Digg. Again I'm not saying the Wii is better then the 360!! But if you don't like the Wii....why bother reading the list and posting negative comments? Remember its only a video game console.
- staticneuron, on 08/07/2008, -3/+9Dear god if you are going to include RE4 and paper mario on the idiotic list you might as well add fun titles such as
360:
Dead Rising
DOA3
PS3:
Uncharted
Motorstorm
Hotshots golf
For both:
Burnout paradise
Rainbow 6 LV
Rainbow 6 LV2
Splinter cell double agent
DMC4
Virtua fig..
Y'know what. I can sit here and list games all day that make the 360 or the PS3 a better investment than my Wii. The only people who would even try to downplay the fact that the wii gets boatloads of shovel ware and direct ports are the most deluded fanboys.
http://www.metacritic.com/games/
Out of 241 titles for the Wii 100 of them have scores less than 60 41% of library
Out of 433 titles for the 360 117 of them have scores less than 60 27% of library
Out of 189 rated for the PS3 only 36 of them have scores less than 60 20% of library
Do you want a different way?
Fine how about games that rank over 75?
360: 171 39% of library
PS3: 85 47% of library
Wii: 45 11.25% of library
Not only are the wii games ranked numerically lower but a large amount of gamers outside of the typical casual category are starting to feel ignored. 21 drool worthy games and I anticipate less than 5?
we have an issue here. - Galaxylander, on 08/07/2008, -1/+7Uh, Super Smash Brothers Brawl and Mario Kart Wii are both immensely better then their GC counterparts.... Mario Kart: Double Dash wasn't that great... Smash Brothers Brawl takes what Melee did and made it better, and gave it more content.
Over all I agree that most of the Wii games are terrible shovel-ware that developers don't put any effort into, but I disagree with you there completely. - hipnerd, on 08/07/2008, -2/+7Sounds like you spent lots of time, money and effort on something that you thought "sucked."
- SaladCactusKing, on 08/07/2008, -2/+7Saddest list ever.
- diggduggDOOM, on 08/07/2008, -3/+8With an ad like that, you know Red Steel 2 is going to be just as awful as the first.
Agreed with others about the PC getting most of my money - Fallout 3, Spore, GTA IV, Left4Dead - nard3456, on 08/07/2008, -4/+9Wii music, Wii sports 2?
- thirdeyeopen666, on 08/08/2008, -0/+4Whoa, you got a string instrument as part of the deal? Sweet.
- inactive, on 08/07/2008, -1/+5maybe why they're coming up with a sequel?
- Pinkshisno, on 08/07/2008, -0/+4People just want to justify their purchases and love putting other consoles down. I thought it was obvious that the Wii is not for these "core" gamers but for a much more broader audience that buys their products and does not constantly whine at them all the time. They are just bitter they are not Nintendo's No. 1 audience anymore. Boo hoo.
I like more of the Wii games than those on the PS3 or 360, but I don't go around saying they suck because those systems still have gems. Video games are there so that you can have fun, and if a game like Bikini Zombie Slayers is a blast to play, then it's a good game period. - ryleyleckie, on 08/07/2008, -9/+13wii games get boring after 2 weeks.
- honeymustardn, on 08/07/2008, -6/+10All of those games suck? Did you bother to read the article? How can you even judge a game as sucking before playing it (admittedly there are exceptions to this rule - see: Wii Music, but come on, Mad World? Kicks my ass any day).
