"The Wii has earned itself a reputation as being a "kiddie console" thanks to its cutesy design and its library of family friendly titles. Gamers have lamented the lack of "hardcore" titles ever since the console debuted--well, their prayers have been answered with the release of MadWorld. But don't think for a moment that it's just a mindless gore-fest: MadWorld has the brains to go with the brawn. So read on for our review of this amazing title and take note because today is the day that the Wii stops being just a "kiddie console" and becomes a legitimate player in the "hardcore" gaming market."
The motion-controlled maverick of a console that had everyone from age 9 to 99 swing a TV remote to bowl and painstakingly recreating themselves as Miis, had its share of hits, but even so, some titles didn’t quite get their due.
Love this game (played on Vita) and i think i got pretty far, but never finished because i refused to look up a guide 😎
Same with me, played for like 50 hours, found a puzzle I just couldn't crack and decided to let it go. Great game
Beneath all the Smash and shovelware, the Wii really did have quite a few gems.
Not a bad list.. I would add Excitebots, Kororinpa 1 & 2, Bit.Trip series, Geometry Wars: galaxies
Keanu Reeves appearing in the trailer for Cyberpunk 2077 is far from the strangest celebrity video game appearance. Game Luster's Kate Mitchell highlights gaming's most unexpected voice acting moments.
Wow this game looks so good. Its been getting 9's on like every review.
Good old Gamepro Spin.. Now who was it that was dead set to make sure everyone thought the Wii was just for kids? Gamepro was one of the biggest sites against the Wii. Oh but now that it is THE market leader its time to show respect and forget about the last two years of insults, but not without getting in a few last shots first. Like acting like this is the only M rated game on Wii.Please.
I love you PlatinumGames.
We need more wii games developed by you guys.
I want this game!!!
Platinum will prove themselves time and time again. Bayonetta is going to rock!
EDIT: *fap* to Kamiya
Now if only Bayonetta could come out sooner. Platinum Games FTW!
