People say the Wii so far this year has been dead, so how many 2011 Wii games have you bought?
Wii
Platform »
The Nintendo Wii is a home video game console released on November 19, 2006. The Wii's main selling point was the innovative use of motion controls that its signature Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers allowed for. It became the best selling home console of its respective generation of hardware.
How many Wii games have you bought that were released this year?
None. I'd say that it's unfair to ask that of me, since I've only bought two games released in 2011, both for the DS, but I'm not even sure if there were games released for the Wii this year. Can somebody name major releases for it? Or will I have to dig deep into the library of games until Skyward Sword comes out?
@Video_Game_King: No major ones, Kirby's Epic Yarn was released in the UK this year, other than that nothing.

But... you love your *god damn* wii!
To make matters worse, I traded in TW12: Wii for the Xbox 360 version. I hurt my shoulder and couldn't play it the way it was meant to be played. TW12 on the 360 is a great game.
wat is this i don't even
People still buy games for the Wii?
I've purchased at least 70 games so far in 2011. None for the Wii.

It is! I played it a ton and managed to make my exact doppelganger in the character creator.

My thoughts exactly.
I have played a VC game or two over this year (that I had previously purchased), but I have yet to buy any retail titles for it this year.
You mean 100%?The opposite of 100%.
The inverse of 1/1 is 1/1, meaning that the opposite of 100% is itself, at least mathematically.
Pogs. I think. How many pogs have you bought this year?@Claude said:

Agreed.
What were we talking about again?

Haha, I had to look up Pogs.
Maaaaaaan... in '94 I had a giant orange tube of pogs like that- but the very top one was made of metal and had a playing card on it (A king of diamonds, I think). Unfortunately, we moved that year and it got lost in the move and I haven't seen it since. I bet my parents threw them away and told me they were lost. Jerks.
I know for sure that 3D Pixel Racing is one of them, only because it stands out. And I'm not sure when other games were released, so... I know there are a handful. Been spending my time with last years games.
Dude, I totally had that neon skull in a bandanna.@CrossTheAtlantic said:

Man, thinking about the state of the Wii today just depresses me.
I genuinely enjoyed up until about 18 months ago when it seemed like every interesting title that would be made had already come out.
I enjoy so many Nintendo games but with the slow acceptance of the 3DS, unless Wii U hits it big (and I have my doubts) it might be time to go the way of Sega and throw in the hardware towel.
So far this year, it has been:
0 Wii games
0 DS games
2 PS3 games
A lot of PC games
However, overall, i have more Wii games (25-ish) than DS (20-ish) or PS3 (11-ish) (but i have more PC games than all of the combine).
So yeah, there the next Zelda and Kirby, but that might just be it, if they don't bring over Xenoblade and such. I still plan on getting a Wii U (eventually, like the 3DS), since i do like their games a lot more than everyone else's (hence why my user name is red... or at least it should be if the text system hasn't changed).

Read in Ryan's voice: MY MIND!!!!!
Wii games I've bought this year: Goldeneye Wii, Little King's Story, Soinc Colors, Wii Party, Tatsunoko v. Capcom, Excitebots and Mario Super Sluggers.
None of them came out this year. All were $10-$20 except TvC, which was $30.
I'd buy Xenoblade Chronicles and Last Story, but you know...
i don't buy my own wii games; i put them on my christmas list. this year i'll have zelda skyward sword and donkey kong country returns on my list, and probably a few others.
None. Like everyone else, I bought Galaxy 2 last, and I'm getting Skyward Sword when it comes out.
Nintendo systems are for Nintendo games.
