Topic: Games that aren't talked about enough

There are a lot of Wii games that don't get enough discussion brewing to get more people interested, so this is a discussion thread to talk about the lesser known games that are released out there. One game that I found really awesome was Deadly Creatures where you kick tons of insect ass underground as a scorpion and a tarantula. It got good reviews and recognition all around but the lack of advertising pretty much made it a failure, which makes me a sad panda indeed because that's one of my favorite Wii games to come out of 09.
What games out there has anybody played that hasn't gotten enough recognition like you believe it should have?

I say NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams. I swear that game...it just pulls me in in ways no other game can. I don't know what it is about it; most people think it's sh**, but, if I may use a cliche, it's one of those games that reminded me why I fell in love with games in the first place. Me and Nintendo Power (who said "Everybody must play this game!" in their review) seem to "get it".

That and ExciteBots. It simply doesn't get any more fun than that.

Excitebots: Trick Racing doesn't get talked enough around here. I wish it didn't bomb so hard.

I hear ya man. That game has some of the most charm than any other game this generation. If you get rid of all the charm, yea, it's not that great of a game. Bad bosses, unskippable cutscenes, horrible gameplay with the kids, but that charm can suck me in no matter what I'm experiencing. A game with that much charm needs to be really horrible for me to write it off.

2007 was an amazing year for games with tons of charm. Dewy's Adventure is one of the top 5 Wii games of all time for me and it just leaks charm like a faucet.

RoboPon for the GBC is a nice little pokemon clone, in fact i prefer it to the GB pokemons it had way more stuff to do and a more comples battle system.

maybe it would be talked about more.... if it was ever released outside of the US

the only game I can think of that didn't get as much coverage as it deserved... the WiiWare Dr Mario
I know its 1000 points and I know its "yet another Dr Mario" but it was very fun and well worth the points
and the Bit Trip games... they get a lot of coverage here but outside of here nobody knows of them
its a bit of a shame

Yea, that's crazy annoying. Little King's Story got a $20 price drop in the span of, what, 3 months? And it's another one of the best games I've played on Wii. I'm convinced if any of these titles had proper advertising, they'd be selling a lot more.

Yep. Although I must say that since I had heard so much trash about how bad the Kid platforming levels were prior to buying it I actually walked away somewhat pleased with them. Don't get me wrong--they're mediocre--but they're not like terrible.
And of course the levels with NiGHTS are simply stunning.

I second NiGHTS and Zack and Wiki. Score-attacking on NiGHTS' chase levels is great fun.

When I actually liked Naruto, I had that game. It definitely isn't the best fighter on Wii, but it is a pretty good game.

The Game.

Is it after 9PM EST? You should probably ignore the above post.
