10 Hidden Gems For The Nintendo Wii

[@BOABModels]

We gave our old Wii to our son for his 7th birthday and have since found some new games we didn't have way back. We're currently enjoying Super Paper Mario. The most obscure game we played was Another Code:R which was a sort of mystery point and click game. Pretty good.

[@Crazy_Gamer_OG]

I did that for my nephews around the same age, but it was too complicated for them to use even though they really loved & enjoyed it. Later, I bought them a 360 & let them use my digital library, which ended up being a lot easier for them. The motion controls made it harder for them I guess.

[@newageBoundhippie]

I'm still upset we never got Another Code R here in the US....I love Trace Memory ( or Another Code: Two Memories as it's called outside NA ) so I would have liked to be able to play the sequel.

[@renatinhoss]

'another code r' is a great game, is a sequel to 'another code: two memories' for the nintendo ds, if you have the oportunity, play it too

[@snoozy04]

The Wii itself is a hidden gem.

[@Exoamylase]

You're a hidden gem.

[@ARIXANDRE]

Deadly Creatures deserved a remaster for current consoles.

[@Marc_Araujo]

Dead Space: Extraction is a great game that caught me by surprise. I didn't play it on the Wii but on the PS3 because it came included in my copy of Dead Space 2: Limited Edition. I was expecting a boring on-rail shooter with a crappy side-story but was pleasantly surprised by how good and fun it was. P.S. Everyone normally dismisses it but Link's Crossbow Training (that came bundled with the Wii Zapper) is actually really good for what it is. I tried it out one day randomly due to boredom and I enjoyed it for the short time it lasted. It was a lot more fun than it ever had any right to be.

Before I started this video, I legitimately thought “I hope Elebits gets some love”. Seeing it at #1 made me happy as a clam. I love that game with all my heart.

[@CobaltT9]

It's so good to hear that Zack & Wiki was too 'mainstream' for the list and is appreciated more by people, and delighted to see Muramasa: The Demon Blade and Elebits on here. My hidden gems for the Wii are: Disney Guilty Party, Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon, MySims Agents, Opoona, Spyborgs and Trauma Team.

[@michaelmacorso4479]

Pandora tower, mad world, last story deserves more attention to

[@Dash120z]

Another Code R is also a masterpiece

[@lukaskidd4621]

Muramasa, Castle Shikigami III and Fragile Dreams should be on every Wii hidden gems list.

[@jclkaytwo]

@@michaelmacorso4479 those three aren't really hidden gems tbh. they're pretty well known if you're familiar with the wii library. especially madworld and the last story

[@michaelmacorso4479]

@@jclkaytwo they are hidden gems that time forgot about. No remakes or anything happen to those games

[@larrythebatmanfan]

Other hidden gems in my personal opinion are 1. Medal of Honor heroes 2 2. Mystery case files : the malgrave innocence 3. Monster 4 bt 4 world circuit 4. Monster 4 by 4 stunt racer 5. Tmnt : smash up 6. Castle of shigami 3 7. Spyborgs 8. Spygames

[@Ikcatcher]

I can’t believe people actually remember Sky Crawlers. The game is such an entertaining game

[@pistolmcawesome9306]

Muramasa was fantastic and I love Vanillaware games, especially games like Odin Sphere. I miss games like those.

[@TheRealAmericanMan]

Centipede Infestation finally getting the recognition it deserves

[@teknomax7883]

I'm so happy to have all of the ones that got released physically as such. I also played "And yet it moves". Very cool game.

[@PatoCrioyo]

4:59 Mayamasa?

[@tman2953]

The letter R: exists People in the UK: 😨

[@mario-mario822]

Dewey's adventure,Munchables and lost in shadow are awesome Wii titles overlooked.☃️⛄😊 I wish Disaster on wii was released in north America 😔

[@ethanpownall7892]

Dewy was amazing

[@RaccoonHenry]

the best part of this video is the idea of Ashton trolling her friends and relatives by hiding their stuff

[@Dabbewear8382]

Madworld & Epic Mickey 1 & 2 for the win!

[@Crazy_Gamer_OG]

Thankfully, most Wii games haven't shot up in price like the Gamecube & everything else has lately. The most expensive games on Wii are JRPG's.

[@cheezwiz9292]

Everyone is missing out on Mushroom Men. Great game and cheap!

[@RapturesBounty]

Cap, no 🍄

[@ProfaneGrue]

Where is Little King Story, the best game for the Wii nobody knows

[@punk_rock_music_teacher]

::Game Sack in Metal Jesus’ voice:: “a hidden gem???”

[@mommommonja]

The Conduit 1 and 2 deserve mention

[@wanderlustwarrior]

That was really mainstream though. It was pushed like it was going to be the wii's big FPS, but wasn't up to the competition. The same developer had a WiiWare game that was more of an underrated good game.

[@philbln]

There are so many unique games for Wii. I still have my collection and love this console.

[@PosthuMouse]

Late to the party, but this video is killer. Actual hidden gems, what a concept. Typically when I watch these videos, I get maybe one or two decent suggestions, and the rest of them are just well-known games that were maybe hidden gems ten years ago. Was expecting to see Cursed Mountain/Deadly Creatures/Fragile Dreams/etc. To my surprise, the only game I own and am familiar with is Muramasa. Well done, can't wait to binge every hidden gem video on this channel tonight!

[@Dash120z]

Disaster Day of Crisis is a cinematic experience for the Wii.

[@CrocvsGator]

Deadly Creatures, Red Steel 2, The Conduit, Excitebots, Boom Blox, and the other Operation Rainfall games that aren't Xenoblade. Seriously, Xenoblade is my second favorite game ever behind Golden Sun, but it's been rereleased on Wii U, 3ds, and Switch. Meanwhile Pandora's Tower was only rereleased on Wii U, and The Last Story...well it never was rereleased.

[@michaelmacorso4479]

Completely agree. I wish nintendo would remastered pandora tower n l ast story. Especially pandora tower how dark the story that game is that reminds me of nier. Would do well with nier automata success.

[@MrBerniemcgovern]

Muramasa! Such perfection. The expansion campaigns on the vita is so much beauty too.

[@jwill7998]

Elebits was a fun pick-up-and-play game.

[@davidsarton976]

I pre-ordered Muramasa when it came out, and got a swanky poster. The poster... has disappeared, but the game is still amazing.

[@triplestar100]

may I please be allowed to induct an honorable mention? "Gunblade NY & LA Machineguns" by Sega! the absolute BEST (and, very uncharacteristic of me, I assure you: I will NOT accept debate or disagreement in this one matter) light-gun rail shooter ever made... and I'm talking about LAMG; GBNY is alright I guess! and both games are almost-arcade-perfect... if only they came with a peripheral that would imitate the incredible kickback that the arcade mounted guns had, which makes one feel badass just feeling it, then perfection would've been fully achieved! as it stands tho', it's a double whammy that deserves so much more love... and no longer having it in my collection makes me regret having to sell it and my WII every single second of my existence; I hate being poor!

[@antiquecardboard]

I agree. Amazing game. Wish it wasn't $100.

[@ryanrichards9515]

Homebrew you're wii and get a copy for free off vimms lair.simple

[@deneusch]

What about "Little King's Story"?

[@RenegadePandaZ]

Holy hell, Sky Crawlers! I loved the movie, and the game is made by Porject Aces, so it's basically Ace Combat, and fun.

[@NeonSewer]

Oh yeah, here we go - Floaty Automobile Speedy Time!

[@therunawaykid6523]

Disaster was pretty cool but I didn’t really care for the first person shooter sections plus not a fan of motion controls but it would be good if they remade the game on a modern console. My favourite disaster simulator series is definitely disaster report particularly the second game raw danger! always loved the dialogue choices and hilarious voice acting plus all the ridiculous clothing variations

[@sethsassy]

I still have my Wii hooked up to my tv. I do play a lot of Mario Party 8 and 9 but its mostly used for trivia and tv gameshow games.

[@theironfox2756]

The original centipedes protagonist was an elf with a wand.

[@Mystemo]

Even though it was technically inferior the Wii has aged way better than PS3 and 360 in my opinion. Sure it had tons of shovelware, but also so many fun, unique and artistically pleasing games. I love 360 and PS3 too but they definitely skewed heavily toward bland grey and brown shooters about grumpy macho men.

[@TerriblyAwesomeGames]

Disaster: Day of Crisis is the one PAL game I really wish hit US shores. Makes me a bit sad.

[@creamyj3888]

I have spent far too many hours in elebits. Such an under rated game.

[@prletovkombajn1417]

I’m in love with Ashton. More please !

[@djbloodshot]

Scarface is the ultimate hidden gem on the wii

[@Srsgaming_1234]

Bro that muramasa demon blade game is insane. I recommend anyone with a Wii to get it.

[@Gaming_auf_Ex]

Homer Simpson would call them Nin-ten-doh! Nennen.

[@KingsRight]

wow, i didn't know most of these existed. I want to play pretty much everything there. who needs a new game system when there is so much going for wii?

[@michaelmacorso4479]

You forgot pandora tower. Very hidden gem material. I wish nintendo would remastered the game. The dark tone reminds me of nier.

[@Nbflowers1989]

Great video!

[@Lusadio_Rafantes]

The Wii was a mixed bag for me, they had some great games but equally some really bad ones. Also, you forgot to Deadly Creatures and Red Steel 2

[@markhiggins5872]

Great console I have 2 one white and 1 black

[@noaht2005]

I love the Wii. Don't care what anyone says

[@michaelmacorso4479]

Wtf is blast work. Why I never heard of this hidden gem before. Game sounds amazing

[@MukiMuki688]

Rolling a penguin like a soccer ball? *Sign me up* Seriously tho, I'm sick of marketers thinking western audiences can't appreciate artistic box art. Contrast the US versus Japan box art of ICO and Castlevania Symphony of the Night

[@danabnormal1]

You missed Deadly Creatures, that game was brilliant but no one played it

[@tadeusticeghostal]

... ya mean FAST doesn't stand for "Floaty Automobile Speedy Time"? All these years I had it wrong. Wtf

[@v3-nnom-ousgamingentertain378]

Great vid 👍

[@mickeybat5816]

I wonder if Mad World is gonna be here

[@ImNotGregGraffin]

I never heard of And Yet It Moves, and looking at the footage, it seems a game that I liked called The Bridge just ripped it off

[@wanderlustwarrior]

I loved *MURA*masa the Demon Blade. I wish Vanillaware would port their games to Steam. Muramasa did get a port with added features, but that was a PS Vita exclusive.

[@goatbone]

Mayamasa? Are you even trying? Do you pronounce samurai as samayai?

[@SebastianDonoso992]

Love your accent

[@mikeruusan]

Did she say mayamasa?

[@thespyderwithin]

First view! You guys are awesome BTW! Keep up the great work!

[@Martin-hb4il]

Please inform me, is it MUramasa or MYamusa? The first time I thought she just had a little brain-fart, but then she repeats it. Thanks in advance.

[@newageBoundhippie]

Nintendo & MonolithSoft should remaster Disaster along with their DS ARPG Soma Bringer for Switch....and release both worldwide unlike the original versions. I'd say my personal potential hidden gems would be the Endless Ocean games, FlingSmash and WiiWare's Eco Shooter: Plant 530 also how the heck did you manage to butcher pronouncing Muramasa so badly?

[@michaelmacorso4479]

Completely agree. Would love a new project x zone game very under rated n one of the most funny games I ever played. Why not stop with those games xenosaaga series, Baten Kaitos

[@ultralowspekken]

Why read it mÄramasa when it clearly spells Muramasa.
