After this top 5 I will only do 2 more the X-box 360 top 5 and the PS3 top 5.
5. Super Paper Mario
I was always a fan of the Paper Mario series from the first one. This is like an rpg element where you gain experience by killing things and level up gaining more health and power. This time they use the advantage of the Wii to help make the gameplay better. Its not only a side scrolling game, but now you can go 3 dimensional in the levels. The story line is a bit boring but it has its moments. I love the fact you can use not only Mario, but Bowser, peach, and Luigi. This game is great for anyone to pick up from old to new fans. This game just makes it in my top 5.
4. Metriod Prime 3 Corruption
This game in my opinion is the best one of the trilogy. Using the advantage of the Wii, this game you can point and shoot the enemies. I was amazed at how well the control scheme worked well for this game. I managed to master the controls pretty quick. All the puzzles and other actions mostly had you using the motion controls allot, which was a good thing.
The one great thing they fixed was the fact that you don't get lost in the game. Everything seems understandable the first time you look at things. For example: in the first Metroid Prime game their was a ? on a part of the map and I must have been their so many times, but nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary ( the location of this place was like a small cylinder so it was hard to accurately tell where the ? was leveled at) It turned out there was something that you had to shoot that brings out a hidden hook that you can swing on to get higher up. How was I supposed to figure that out? This game, however fixed that with more accurate readings on the map and little icons that tell you to do a specific task.
Her power ups are just as unique as the other games and the bosses are awesome to play though. You end up destroying the home world of the Metroid to final put an end to the trilogy and it is an epic boss battle. This game is well deserved to be in my top 5.
3. Super Smash Bro. Brawl
One of the reasons why I got the Wii in the first place. This game both improves, but somehow doesn't live up to the way the previous game did. Don't get me wrong I would rate this game better than the previous version in the franchise, but sadly i have only 1 complaint. The fighting and the competitiveness of this game was dumbed down. they made it so new people can beat experienced people like its nothing which is sad.
Anyway on to the good aspects of the game. All the modes are back from the previous game and a few more. There is actually a story line to this game, but no one talks in this game. It even has boss battles in this story line. The new thing around this game is the smash ball. if you hit it and get its power you can use the characters's ultimate attack. It brings a new twist in the game. You can save replays of games you've played. Allot of characters to play as and a special treat you can unlock Sonic and Solid Snake as characters, who are not from Nintendo. This game is a great time with friends.
2. Super Mario Galaxy
This game comes close to being as good as Mario 64. This is a great new kind of platforming game that takes place in space. Its the same plot though bowser captures Peach and Mario has to save her and defeat Bowser. They use the motion controller for some things, but mostly your going to flick it just to use his spinning attack most of the time. The levels are visually stunning and great and creative. Some are really challenging and the powers are cool and some are funny. Overall this game is a reminder of why I love the Mario franchise.
1. Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess
The most anticipated game for the Wii for me. This game was right up there, if not even better than the Ocarina of Time. This is my favorite game to play when it comes to the Wii. The Story line is great. The gameplay for the Wii with the motion controls was excellent. The visual effects and graphics where great (for a Wii console)
This is a very long game so you might want to have allot of free time if you want to beat it (took me a week to beat only cause I was home sick and I had nothing else to do) If I remember its about 20 hours of gameplay. He gets his usual weapons and some new stuff that I've never would have thought to use in a game like this. The fight with Ganondorf is as epic as it could ever get and you can fight on horseback which was a big deal for this game. This horseback battle scene is one of the most epic scenes in the Legend of Zelda Franchise Overall this game is Epic and a keeper and deserves my number 1 spot.








I went back to do a quick run through of the games you've listed. Interesting how many are Mario Games. I was also looking at the graphics and from what i can tell through the screen shots, there's not as much difference as there used to be; would you agree?
ReplyDeleteZelda will always be a favorite, perhaps an any platform. I've enjoyed reading these. Nice work
Thank you and yes Mario is up there alot in my top 5's when it comes to the Nintendo consoles. Its sad how the Nintendo consoles do not improve graphics as much as other consoles, but there is a slight improvement in graphics for the Metroid prime 3 game. I should have really held off on this top 5 only because Donkey Kong Country Returns is comming out next week and I wanted to see if it would make it in my top 5.
