Wize Buying Guide for Wii Games


Since its release, the Nintendo Wii gaming system has become an international sensation. More than 24 million Wii consoles have been sold, which means it is out selling all other game consoles on the market today, including the Xbox 360, and Wii games are being released at a greater rate than other gaming console games.


At the moment, the only drawback of the Nintendo Wii is the fairly unsophistacted graphics quality of available games. However, this problem is changing as the next generation of games are released.


The quality rating of Wii games can be somewhat misleading if graphics are your number-one priority; some of the best-rated games have some of the lowest-quality graphics, and vice versa. Keep in mind, however, that the design, premise and interactivity of the game all play a role in a game's rating.


A new feature of Wii is its Nintendo Channel on the main menu. This channel will allow you to preview new games which have been developed and will soon be hitting the stores.Makers of Wii games include Nintendo, UbiSoft, Activision, Electronic Arts, THQ, and others. Prices of Wii games range from $20 - $50.


Game types and ratings 


Wii games come in a variety of playing themes or genres, including action, role playing, sports, racing, exercise, music, adventure and many more.


Like all video games, Wii games have an ESRB rating system to help you determine if a game is right for you, your children, your friends or your whole family:


  • E = everyone

  • E10 = 10 years or older

  • T = teen

  • M = mature


Based on customer ratings, the current best Wii games are:


  • Super Mario Galaxy

  • Mario Party 8

  • Madden Football

  • Wii Play



Buying Wii Games


Once you have narrowed your Wii game choices, check out the following:


  • Reviews and rankings: compare reviews by current users of the games, and do a quick Google Wii search to check out current rankings of games 

  • Online Support: check to see if there is any online support for playing the game

  • Number of Players: see how many players the game allows at one time; some allow up to eight, some only one or two

  • Compare Prices: not all retailers are the same, there can be a range difference of $20 or more for the same game

  • HDTV: is the game suited for HDTVs or will HDTVs make no difference in the graphics


Remember: Wii games are quickly becoming the leaders in the gaming market, and there are currently over 250 Wii games available in the US. As more consoles are sold, more games and better games are being developed for Wii. Be patient, shop around and have a good time gaming!
