  A few here I'm missing (and a few you are too 😝) but very happy to see Madworld in here, such a unique experience. Tbh I liked super paper Mario at the start but the scene flipping gimmick got old for me after a few hours, N64 still my favourite 😊, another excellent addition into this series mate!

  Wii probably the console ive seen least on the games it has.  Kirby and Mario look like must be some of the big ones.

  Wii was behind the curve with graphics, and not everyone knew what to do with motion controls, but boy when it hit, it hit BIG!

  I forgot about the Trama Center game - I remember spending a lot of time playing that one.

  Wii is a very friendly system to collect for, the most expensive game that isn't a bundle/collector's edition/or cover variant is only about $170.  That's practically free compared to a lot of other systems...

  Very nice video fair play! Only dabbled with the Wii myself back then but enjoyed the Resident Evil Umbrella/Darkside Chronicles concept of revisiting the classic titles but also each having a new canon story in the mix too, although I was awful actually playing them haha.💫👁🍀

  Great list of games but personally I am not convinced the Wii will ever be highly collectible other than a few exceptions. I think most of the original non-casual audience of the Wii who may want to revisit this period in their life will also have been aware of how easy at the time it was to hack the wii and most likely never had the original games in the first place. Unlike any of Nintendo's earlier consoles NES, SNES, N64 and Gamecube where most of the audience of those consoles at the time would have owned original games, likely sold them stupidly for cents when they moved on, and then had more incentive to buy back the original games (even though they would be equally easy to emulate) simply because they remember owning the physical game. If you never had a physical copy of a Wii game in the first place, little incentive to buy it back for nostalgia. In my area at least it seems that 8 out of 10 Wii consoles I see listed on facebook marketplace have been hacked. Plus the 90% shovelware ratio of this console doesn't help matters.
