Topic: Wii Games You Regret Buying

Banana Blitz I don't care how many people say it wasn't that bad, IMO it was terrible.

Kizzi, I was mostly disappointed by the ridiculously laggy online play. Brawl looks like the most fluid online experience I've ever had in comparison. It is downright unplayable.

Other than online, it adds almost nothing to the Gamecube version, which I much prefer since the Wii version seems less skill-based. My opinion of it is (online mode aside) is the same for Mario Kart Wii -- good game, but only if you ignore previous games in the series and don't mind the luck factor on overdrive.

Oh yeah, I completely forgot!

Sonic & The Secret Rings.

Geez, that game was so bad I repressed the memory of it. But I didn't really buy it, I got it as a gift.

I have a few.
Deadly Creatures- It was fun and interesting while it lasted, but nothing compelled me to come back to it once I had finished.
Klonoa- I really wanted to like this one. It was fine, but wasn't as fun as the reviews made it out to be. Plus it was way too short.
Swords and Soldiers- This was my first ever RTS, so I didn't know what to expect. It was just too hard for me. I finished Viking, but couldn't get past Chinese or Aztecs level 9. Plus the multiplayer is awful. Whoever gets going first wins. I've probably played Bit. Trip Beat more than this.

How dare you say that!

I regret my mom buying Game Party for Christmas. I just turned it in though.

Sonic and the Secret Rings. I got it because I love Sonic and wanted one for the Wii. Big mistake. The plot was vague, the controls sucked, and switching between the tutorial and the actual game was annoying. The four rings you choose from were never explained.

I loved Mario Super Sluggers. It was fun working to unlock all those characters. There were even really hard challenges. I was excited when I was able to buy Luigi's Mansion and Daisy's Cruiser.

I'll agree somewhat on Mario Strikers Charged. Five minutes per half? The fields are also too small and there's very little soccer to it. Fun game, but could've been much better. Is there anything I can replace this with (and I don't mean FIFA)

The only thing wrong with Mario Party 8 is that you can never restart a main game. That and there's too much to play, so why bother unlocking anything? It can get annoying playing the same minigames over and over again, though. Better in multiplayer.

@Irken from page 2: I found the motion in some boss battles annoying, like the second boss (the car).

@StarFox: PRO Evolution Soccer? I personally love MSC though. always have.

Battalion Wars 2, Pokemon Battle Revolution, Mario Kart Wii(but it was my brother who got it anyways), Animal Crossing: City Folk(but it was my brother's anyways), WiiPlay(but it did come with a Wii remote), Star Wars: The Force Unleashed(but it was a Christmas present), Super Mario Galaxy(should've gotten it cheaper), Sonic & The Secret Rings(should've gotten it cheaper), Call of Duty 3(should've been a rental), Heavenly Guardian(although I've only just started).

As for Wiiware:

Mega Man 9, Lost Winds(but it was fun while it lasted).

Harry Potter and the Order of the phoenix: i know, i fell into the movie game trap.
Super Mario Galaxy: just got bored of it

Alone in the dark - Oh dear God that game was terrible!
Okami - too artsy and too boring

For my taste, any one with six (or 7) exceptions:
Zelda TP (a real gem and my only reason to have a Wii)
Mario Karts (fun for MP)
Mario Galaxy (for my little daughter, but all in all it is an original and well polished game)
And the three lego series (also for MP coop)
(waiting for LKS)

I should create a pile with the other dozens Wii games I have and burn them up alltogether. I'm not cruel enough to even re-sell them

That's disgusting! Give them to me!

I don't regret a single Wii game purchase since I actually do my homework on the games themselves and/or keep up with their respective reviews. I have well in mind what upcoming games I'm interested in and which ones can just go bounce themselves right off my radar.

Anyone who was disappointed in buying Wario Land: Shake It! is silly, to say the least. Same goes for anyone "let down" by Klonoa, Swords & Soldiers, either of the Bit.Trip games, Super Mario Galaxy, Okami, or Deadly Creatures. Seriously people... do you honestly not enjoy good games?

There are games in my collection I'm more disappointed with than others but nothing I intensely regret buying in the end. Games are always an experience and that certainly includes the mediocre/bad ones. I can at least understand people being disappointed with titles like The Conduit. I enjoy the single player well enough on the higher difficulties, but the multiplayer is the only real selling point for that game to most people. And if you don't get into that, it's definitely $50 down the drain.

No, I like all my games, even Red Steel and Onechenbara: Bikini zombie slayers

@KnuckleSonic: I'm actually looking for a cartoonish soccer game, but with more soccer to it.

My Pokemon Ranch and Sonic Unleashed. While I certainly don't think Sonic Unleashed is a bad game, I BEGGED my mom to get it and I just should have waited for Christmas. I shouldn't have made her spend $50...

For VC, I'm skeptical about:

Lost Levels- it is indeed hard, and I might as well just download the original
Bomberman '94- a nice little puzzle game for when I'm bored, but nothing else really

Ghostbusters. It was cool the first two days I had it, but it gets boring real quick. I finally traded it in for Dragon Warrior I, II and III for GameBoy Color.
