So you imported it?
I really can't answer the question because other than Red Steel all the Wii games I bought so far haven't disappointed.
Though the best value game is definently Metal Slug Anthology.

Super Mario Galaxy. It could almost have been Brawl but I still can't get over the lack of Sonic in the story mode. :p

Story mode was a farce anyway. Poop could have been a playable character in story mode and I would still rate Brawl the same.

I liked the story mode, the fusion of different characters and game worlds into one big story was a great, original idea and I enjoyed every second. There should be more games like that. But I was waiting for the Sonic level to appear right up until the credits rolled at the end, they should've had a warning!

I always thought this place would have more RPG fans. :sad:Yes I would be but since I play a lot of other genres as well I can't find the time. I haven't played any Wii RPG's because I haven't played ones I've wanted to play from years ago. One day, maybe years in the future, I'll get around to playing a Fire Emblem game! :p

I'm an RPG fan, by the way, but I haven't seen much to love lately. It's too early in the console life-cycle to get very many good RPGs.

Super Mario Galaxy was good. Fun but too easy. I beat it within a week. Interestingly, I started a new file and started playing it again today.
Pirates of the Caribbean for the Wii. I've learned my lesson. I am no longer getting any more games based on movies... ever!
MySims I'm ashamed to say I own.
Excite Truck I am frikkin awesome at. Good music too.
Wii Sports I still play when I get bored. I get worn out though.
Mario kart Wii. I just posted a Topic about my opinion. It's good.
and now my answer. Brawl! All the way! i play it everyday! (I so didn't mean to rhyme there)

Brawl loses it's charm after a while, but I still think it's fun, it will get boring to play 3 hours straight. It's the second best wii game though.

No, you're not obsessed. Brawl is the second best game after Fire Emblem. So among the wide-appeal mainstream Wii games, it's #1. More people should play Fire Emblem, though. :(

I saw it in the store the other day, it was so lonely, I could only see a bit off it as it was being blocked by Mario Galaxy. I ended up buying Mario Kart ;)

I rented Fire Emblem, and just couldn't like it... it's a strategy game, but most of the time it feels like a puzzle, one wrong move can mean you'll loose, and it takes about 1 hour and a half to discover that. Also, you might make the right move, but random chance means you'll still loose it. I don't know, not my cup of tea I guess.
Now, from all the games I've played, I must say that Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is THE best game on the Wii right now.
Granted, I haven't played Brawl yet, so I would guess that might change :p. I've liked Galaxy, and though it's very enjoyable, I wouldn't say its' the best game available on the Wii. Mario Kart is just meh in my opinion, and Twilight Princess is pretty good too, but I play it on the Gamecube.

Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn - epic, enthralling and heavenly as ever
and, best of all, the first game to make a Gamecube to Wii transition
without suffering from the usual quality-dive required to cater to the needs of their precious spastic demographic (see: Metroid, Mario Kart, Zelda, Super Mario Galaxy, Super Smash Bros...)

Yum, definitely my cup of tea! That sort of punishing (but never stupid
or rubber banding) difficulty is what keeps me coming back for more. I
love labouring over a battle for close to an hour and agonising over every
move lest I lose a character forever. Other than Ikaruga, I can't think of
a more satisfying and rewarding game to play.

Don't hold your breath over Brawl... it's simply a re-hash of Melee with
high production values, dire controls and an online service that is pure
____ . I was printing my refund application within 30 minutes of playing
it... beating the record set by Mario Kart Wii, which I didn't think was
possible. Nintendo are full of surprises.

Yes, from everything I've seen the strategic gameplay elements seem to be fairly similar. I think FE's gameplay is somewhat deeper, and it has a cooler storyline. (I say this without having played AW.)

don't forget better graphics. but does it have the hardcore music to match?

It does have great music. I don't know if I would call it hardcore. There are a couple tracks in Brawl that you can listen to. My favourite song didn't make it into Brawl, though. :(

Which song was that? Personally, I was annoyed at the lack of MGS2/3 main theme. They took it out because it sounded relatively similar to a song written a few decades ago. ):

"Stalwarts Unite" — the song that plays when you convince someone to join your team / switch sides. Great tune.

Zack and Wiki is a great Wii experience, but it's pretty poor in terms of replayability.
Kororinpa: Marble Mania is an awesome, but short game. However, if you're into time trial type stuff, you can really milk this game for its bargain bin price (and perhaps even more).
However, I think the best game in MY Wii library to date is Mario Kart Wii (and yes I have the other games you guys mentioned as well... And I think Fire Emblem is like playing dice/slot machines sometimes, since I've seen many instances of an event with a ridiculously small probability occuring). I love the online (since I can find a match much faster than in Brawl), the motion controls with the Wii Wheel, and the tournaments.

Brawl was the most amazing game I've played in years. The sheer amount of things to do is mindblowing.
Twilight Princess was fun until the later dungeons where they dragged on and on and got boring.
MP3 was pretty awesome, although quite often I've gotten lost for hours.

That was the best part of the game. never know where the heck you are, since each place has 2 rooms that look similar. And the map looked just odd. But that's how i got those extra 5 hours added on. But it usually doesn't get so annoying that you get ****ed off at the game. (although it did happen a few times) It's just like super Metroid.

Funny, I almost never get lost, I just can't beat 'em 'cause they're hard.
I'm no fan of strategy games, though my brother gave the Gamecube Fire Emblem a go, and the Wii version looks like a carbon copy of that one, so I'm not gonna vouch for it.
Anywho, you guessed it, the best game, by far on Nintendo's latest console is (drumroll) *da da-da daaahhh!!!* Super Mario Galaxy.
While super Smash Bros. is fun, it's not quite as unique and appealing as Galaxy. In fact, I don't think I've had as much fun in a Mario Game before or since! The levels are incredibly creative, more than any other Mario game, and the gravity aspect in the game tops even the Water pack in innovation. It's as challanging as you want it to be, and as long as you need it.
So while Super Smash Bros. Brawl was fun in nearly every aspect of the word, after a while, I do get tired of hitting people around with a frying pan, but I never get tired of, well, pretty much anything in Super Mario Galaxy.
There's my vote, unfortunately, It's not going to have much company.

Man, if I didn't love Super Mario Galaxy so much, I'd be right there with you.
Who said Super Mario Galaxy was "too easy"? That game is pretty hard, especially if you're trying to get every thing.
And Why does everybody hate Super Mario Sunshine? That game was pretty dang awesome, especially in the Plaza(I spend 80% of my time messing around in video games). The Water pack was the greatest innovation in a Mario game, Until Galaxy. Difference isn't a bad thing, people.
I would have mentioned Metroid Prime 3, but...I just didn't enjoy it quite as much as Galaxy, I don't have any complaints, I just didn't like it quite as much.
I also would've mentioned Twilight Princess, except I have it on my Gamecube, so as far as I'm concerned, it's not a Wii game. Same with Okami, even though I have the Wii Version.

I'm gonna lay my vote on either brawl, geometry wars or resident evil 4.
motivations:
Brawl: Well.. it's super smash bros... doesn't need much more else said, the multiplayer seems okay but the lack of communication takes away it's absolute "best game" -title.
Geometry wars: It's replayability and it's colorfull graphics and manipulative background makes me sitt completely still with my eyes wide open looking at it like a druggie... just awesome, it's a drug for my wiiwii that I love!
resident evil 4: I love the controls in this game, it's just perfect, cool atmosphere, great graphics, and the part where you control ashley made my heart beat real bad (I didn't think I could live without my pistol).
