*I apologize. Something unexpected happened over the weekend and I won't be able to post the comic this coming Monday. It will be next Monday instead. Sorry about that, I know I said no more non-updates, but I can't predict the future.
Numbe- oh wait...
No More Heroes. It's in a limbo here. I never check up on Wii news so I'm pretty slow with this. Apparently, No More Heroes is getting ported to the 360 and PS3. February 25th, 2010 in Japan only (so far). Whoops. Well those are the rules, it's no longer a Wii exclusive. So No More Heroes loses it's number 5 spot. However, it's still fun to pick up in the mean time. It's a free-roaming world game. You go around and just slash the crap out of everybody who stands in your way. It doesn't really stand out, except on the Wii. Or, you could import it from Japan or wait for a US/EU release date. It's up to you. (and yes, the graphics are enhanced, the controls are fixed for normal controllers, and new crap is added on for the ports) I *just* learned about this so I didn't prepare a new number 5.
Number 4
Silent Hill: Shattered Memories. Wait, fuck. Future release dates for the PSP and PS2. However, I'll be nice and let this slide. Why? Because the PS2 is on the brink of it's death and horror games don't work on handheld consoles well. Although technically, this shouldn't count. But it'd be sad to have a "Top 8" though. Anyway, Shattered Memories is a remake of the original Silent Hill. The best part, is that it isn't combat focused. Shoving a player in a room full of ammo and grenades and shotguns then throwing hordes of zombies after them isn't scary. The instinct is to shoot. Now, put them in a room full of zombies with no weapons. I assure you the player will poo in their pants and immediate run. And that's what horror is, making you run and hide. I know I never really mention covers either, but this game has a freakkin' sweet cover.
Number 3
MadWorld. I swear, this is a true exclusive. Like No More Heroes, Mad World is more focus on gore and slashing things. It isn't quite as free world as the other. But this game has bangin' music, a more likeable main character, and you aren't really "good". Technically, I'm not sure Travis from No More Heroes is either, but he isn't likeable. He's just boring. It's completely different smashing through Mad World unique art style (YES, I know No More Heroes' is unique too) with music to match your moves exactly.
Number 2
Super Smash Brothers Brawl. Of course you knew this was going to appear (it's probably a no-brainer what number 1 is either). First off, the Space single-player campaign is bullshit. It's a waste piece of fuck and actually makes me hate the game a bit. But besides that, it's still as fun as the others. The new levels are entertaining and bring a scent of nostalgic. The characters are...kinda sorta balanced, but you still play your favorites anyway. Newcomers Sonic and Solid Snake are nice. The assistant trophies, the smash finishes, the crappy level creater, it's all extra spice added on. It's just as fun as the original Super Smash Brothers was. It depends on what levels and characters you want to play that dictates which one of the three Smash games to play. Whether you're alone or battling with friends, it's still shit loads of fun.
Number 1
Super Mario Galaxy. Duh. I was skeptic of this game at first. I was like "Oh boy, Mario is space, woop-dee-doo..." then I played the first level. The music is AMAZING. The whole gravity/space theme is unqie and fun. The new Princess is likeable. The entire game feels like a trip to Disney World. It's not "technically" 2-player, but another player can join in and waste all your star bits. You'll feel for Princess Rosalina's story, then laugh at how disgusting odd it is to feed a luma star bits until they explode. The game is so beautiful in general that you can even forgive the shine they slapped on everything.
It was a difficult list to create, but I did it. There you are with the Top 9 Wii Exclusvies. These are all must-haves in one way or another. (and I did have to judge only by Wii standards, keep that in mind.)
