Excellent games for cheap Wii owners

by JC Fletcher { Aug 25th 2008 at 3:38PM }

What's more fun than dropping fifty bucks on a new game? Dropping fifty bucks on three new games. Diverging from their usual retro theme, Racketboy has posted a wonderfully long list of Wii, GameCube, and (obviously) WiiWare games that you can buy for less than $20. While people were busy complaining about the lack of quality third-party Wii games, a bunch of third-party Wii games came out and dropped in price immediately.

The list is populated by awesome shooters like Geometry Wars: Galaxies, Blast Works, and Ghost Squad, mascot games like NiGHTS, Sega Superstars Tennis, and Rayman: Raving Rabbids, and Elebits-style games like Elebits. And that's just in the Wii list! Each game also has handy Amazon and eBay search links attached. Go hit the ATM and check out the list!

I must say that Puzzle Quest on Wii sucked...unless you have a big ass television. The game is a straight port, but with all the text and labels in the game it made playing very frustrating. The PC/DS versions of Puzzle Quest are a better investment.

I happened to come across Geometry Wars the other day at Kmart for 10. Its was more than worth it

I got Viewtiful Joe for $3 today, and from what I've heard, its definitely worth that much.

Do. I enjoy it.

I don't play it often, though, and haven't gotten very far accordingly, but I've definitely gotten my money's worth out of it.

Midway Pinball, if you grew up with the arcade generation, you'll appreciate this title, and for 20 bucks, quite the steal.

Excite Truck for $18.00?? Maybe it's just a local thing, but around here (western Canada) I haven't seen Excite Truck for less that *$60.00* new.... and I think the only place I can find it still on the shelves is EB Games... maybe Toys 'R US too...

Yeah. $50.00-$60.00.

I got Godfather Blackhand the other day at Kmart for $10. Last one on the shelf. I was ready to pay $20, sooo...

Bit of advice, though. 8/31-9/6 TRU is having a B1G1%50Off deal on all of their games under $20. If you're going to get something, wait and try to get it there, yeah?
