Sam and Max: Season One (has problems, but supposedly still fun - 20 USD)
Trauma Center: Second Opinion
Trauma Center: New Blood (<--better)
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
House of the Dead: Overkill
Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles
House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return
Metal Slug Anthology (will be annoying one-handed)
I dont know about the strongbad games - are they worth $10 each when sam & max is $10 for five?

Bit Trip Beat

Think of it like ultra pong you can either hold the remote nes style and tilt, or simply point the remote sensor down and twist it like an old atari paddle.

The strongbad games are fun if you are a fan. I haven't watched the flash cartoons in a long long time, but got the first one and i chuckled a few times. Can't say i wasn't entertained, but maybe not 10 bucks entertained. I haven't played sam and max (at all, gasp!) but i hear it is good. Might want to check that out before strong bad.

i can vouch for those- gun games are really fun, and you only need one hand. You could add sega's "ghost squad" to the list. Often overlooked because it isn't as over the top as HOD. Still fun. Fire Emblem RD is crazy hard. If you even loose one troop no matter how insignificant to the story you lose the round. Really difficult because not everyone is as strong as the rest of the troops you have, and the further you play the harder it is to get the weaker troops stronger. I have it, but only played it for a few days before quitting out of frustration. Maybe it is up your ally though?

also- you might want to look in to putting a twilight hack in and installing scummVM. Get all those point and click adventures. Day of the tentacle, full throttle, monkey island games. All that good stuff runs with just the wiimote.

Because of this injury I was finally ready to install the hack... but my wife updated the menu the other day to 4.0.... no more twilight hack for me...

AH! bumout. I'm sure that the homebrew community will get around 4.0 eventually. Lets just hope you bust up your hand again when that happens. ;)

To be fair, I'm pretty sure that was only one map where that was the condition. Most of them you're just in the position where losing a troop or two can screw you over in later maps, due to lack fo troops. It is a very hard game, though.

Zack and Wiki is the only remote-only controlled game I can think of that hasn't been mentioned already. It's really cheap these days also.

Thats one of the two I already have.

As for adventures on the PC, it's better if I can play in the front room so that my game time also doubles as wife time since she sits on the couch with me and reads.
