Mii and the Wii - 2 / 2009
Hi there!
As promised, my Wii reports will be more frequent and shorter now 
My main problem with the Wii these last weeks was lack of money. So while I only managed to play a few reserve titles I had on the shelf already, my shopping list grew to 14 titles now 
But first the list of games I'm done with: Wii Sports, Zelda TP, Excite Truck, Metal Slug Anthology, Geometry Wars, Bully 
, Eledees, Zack & Wiki , Mario Galaxy, Death Jr., Battalion Wars 2, Disaster , Metroid 3 , Fire Emblem , Boom Blox, de Blob, Opoona, Lego Indiana Jones, Okami
The rest of my Wii collection:
No More Heros => Marvellous masterpiece! I loved almost every second from this one. So stylish!, So cool! So Punked! So Humorous! Backed by some of the best motion controls I've seen on the Wii thus far and some of the most challenging (and rewarding!) boss fights I've seen ever, This ranks right next to my beloved Bully!
MadWorld => I was starting this only days after I finished No More Heroes and it just paled (in every sense of the word 
) in comparison. It has good controls, it has okay graphics, it has the humour, it (surprisingly) has the story, yet the experience is watered down by missing savespots, more tediousness and the lame "kill until your score reaches xxx.xxx points" missions. I quit halfway into the game, when I just couldn't force myself to play a complete level for the 5th time.
Resident Evil 4 => Sitting ready-to-go on the shelf. Since I played all other REs now ('xcept the very expensive CV 
), I should start it rather soon now
==========================================
My current shopping list:
Super Paper Mario => Still waiting for a price drop. I have all the time in the world...
Wario Land - The Shake Dimension => Will this eventually become the first Wii Jump & Run I'm falling in love with? Stay tuned!
The Secret Files: Tunguska => Supposedly the best point & click adventure available on the Wii so far, I'll give this a try.
The Secret Files: Puritas Cordis => Whoah, the sequel is already out!
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed => After my Disaster experience I thought to give another possibly underrated action game a try as well.
Tomb Raider Underworld => I really like the video that's available on the German Nintendo channel.
Deadly Creatures => Regarding available reviews it's probably no perfect game, but I'm always eager to support teh hardcore on my Wii
Tenchu: This'll be my first contact with the series. Being an old "Last Ninja" fanatic I'm really looking forward to it, should be a blast!
Rogue Trooper: This one is getting surprisingly good reviews in Germany, around ~75%. Also I still feel a bit guilty for skipping CoD:WaW.
Broken Sword, Lego Batman & Anno => For my wife!
Little Kings Story: Such a lovely gem, I definitely must have this.
The Conduit: I was a longtime naysayer, but 87% from "Wii Magazin" even I cannot ignore
==========================================
My future Hopelist (no changes here, safe to skip ):
Spyborgs => Anything with superheroes works for me. Last thing I heard is that they currently rework the graphics. Can't be a bad thing.
So Blonde => Another promising point & click adventure hopefully capturing the spirit of the classic Monkey Island games.
Monster Hunter 3 => Well, I'm usually no fan of Online games, but maybe this one changes everything?
Tiger Woods 10 => I really hope WM+ proves it's worth with this one.
Overlord => Pikmins evil twin? Return of Dungeon Keeper? Dark side, here I come! 
Klonoa => At the very least I can remove this one from my PS1 shopping list then 
Greetings,
Manuel
