Could've fooled me.

Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, New SMB Wii, Zelda: Spirit Tracks and previous releases this year seemed to have been pretty good. I thought Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon was pretty good as well. I also liked some of the additions they made with Wii Sports Resort, like ping-pong and archery.

The quality of a console's games is not based on its ratio of good games to bad games, but on the number of good games, period.

I feel bad for the dudes that worked on this game since it was unnecessarily canceled after completion.

Then again Star Fox 64 probably wouldn't be what it is if Star Fox 2 had been released.

Agreed. There is a disproportionate amount of shovelware for this generation of Nintendo systems and it is depressing.

Off the top of my head I can only name 3 Wii titles that I've played and truly enjoyed.
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2
Smash Bros.
Mad World (Most cathartic game I have ever played)

Everything else kinda got stale, and even some of those above are stagnating for me.
Then you get weird and interesting stuff that has loads of potential, but just doesn't manage to follow through, like Elebits. I got so excited about that game and then lost interest once I played through a couple levels.

If all it took to convince you was a speedrun of an unreleased game, then no, you don't.

Easy way of filtering it out is skipping everything by Ubi Soft. Anything based on a TV show? Skip it. Now we go through the developers that actually try with the system.

That would be Nintendo, Capcom, Square-Enix, Atlus (well when Shiren III comes out), 5th Cell, WayForward, sometimes Sega, Konami, Retro Studios, EA... trust me, this process has worked well for me on DS and can be applied on Wii.

Now go buy a copy of A Boy and his Blob. It is awesomeness and I want sequels.

Or you could go pick up the original. My friend had me playing the original last night. Good times.
