Max and the Magic Marker:
Intuitive, fresh platformer that incorporates the Wiimote minimally, but effectively.
Another Code: R:
Unfolding like the old point 'n click adventures games of yore, with a dash of mystery.
Fatal Frame 4 (Import):
Severely underrated survival-horror series gets it fourth outing on the Wii.
Gunblade NY and L.A. Machineguns:
Sega does the Wii some more service, this time porting over this awesomely cheesy light-gun/helicopter-based titles that tasks the player with fending off the invasion of cartwheeling android terrorists. Terribly addictive score-attack mode too.
I guess Monster Hunter Tri qualifies since this isn't a Japanese board. The series that pretty much saved the PSP from fading into a generational afterthought comes to do the same service the much 'core-maligned Wii.

Re: Wii-Hidden Gems
I just stumbled across this topic and I am loving it, I don't have a lot of Wii games so I need to explore a bit. I am probably about the only person who don't want the Mario's and Donkey Kong's. I want some new fresh experiences. Mario and Donkey Kong, hell even a bunch of series are getting old after all these years. If I play Mario it is one of the NES versions.
Mad World dose look good and the average $6 price seems good. I am leaning towards No More Hero's and Monster Hunter Tri also. I do plan on getting the shump's that I can find too. I can't wait to see a full list years down the road.
I like seeing some classic franchises get new games like Nights and A Boy and his Blob but not when there are already 5 or so games that have been made in a series. Are there any others that have finally their long over due return on the Wii.
