    Definitely get Chibi Robo. Don't believe any of the reviews, you do not spend the majority of the game cleaning up shit.


    Also, the Resident Evil Remake and Resident Evil 0 are both must owns (and on the cheap too, I got mine from gamestop and gamecrazy, respectively, for about 8-10 bucks a pop).

    Wave Race: Blue Storm

    Always overlooked. Awesome difficulty (although the learning curve is extremely steep) and it aged pretty well. It can also be found for $10 or so new at Best Buy. Give it a spin. I picked it up as a complimentary game when I got my Cube (Super Smash Bros. Melee being the main course) and I haven't regretted my purchase one bit.

    Has anyone made a short bus joke yet?
    ...

    Because, you know, not very many games...

    ...okay.

    Viewtiful Joe is a must.

    As long as you start with Paper Mario 2 you'll be ok. As far as I'm concerned it was the best game on the system, and that is a high praise.

    It's okay. I think it was on the edge of all of our tongues.

    For Donkey Konga on the Wii... you have to use the drums, right? I thought I had read somewhere that none of the special controller-port-using-devices for the GC would work on the Wii. Or is the Konga really just a misshapen controller?

    Very underrated: 1080° Avalanche. I think it is better than the almost simultaneously released GC-version of SSX3, of which I admit that it is also a great game. But 1080 is more realistic and prettier and I still play it now and then.

    I know F-Zero is incredibly hard, but is it so hard is pisses you off? Is it hard as in cheap or hard as in challenging. When you completely something, do you feel like a badass, or do you feel like "finally I lucked out and beat those cheating sons of bitches"?

    I'm in the mood for a hover-racing game, and Wipeout Pure is only for PSP and Wipeout Fusion isn't that good. :(
    I felt the second way on the highest difficulty level. I'm just glad the apartment I lived in then had carpeted floors.

    MK:DD got a bad rap. I still pull that game out for some 150cc sometimes.

    Zelda: Twilight Princess is the only brand-new game worth getting.

    It is awesome.

    Yeah, you have to use the bongos, and yes, it works on Wii. The controller port thing is exactly the same as a normal GC controller.

    You can use the normal GC controller.


    Which are cheaper, I think.

    Nah.

    Regular GC controllers are like $25 new, and wavebirds are about $35.

    Is Starfox adventures a game that is worth getting? Almost all the reviews I read are very positive but it never gets mentioned in any of the "best of" lists.

    it's worth it if you can find it for 5-10$. Any more and you should look at other games.

    It's a Zelda clone, not a shooter. It's pretty good for that, but I wouldn't make it a priority over the really great stuff. Get it if you can find it for cheap.
