Link's Crossbow Training

Though it's extremely short, Link's Crossbow Training is a fun shooting game that's good enough to overshadow the faults of the main part of the package, the Wii Zapper.

Super Mario Galaxy

The stellar presentation and fantastic level designs combine to make Super Mario Galaxy the Wii's game to beat and one of Mario's greatest adventures yet.

This cheap headset will help out when voice chatting in the few games that support it, but it's otherwise unnecessary.

Picross DS

Picross is a fun, logical game, great for stimulating the mathematician in you that provides a nice change to the Sudoku 1-9 grind. Warning: can be addictive for puzzle lovers.

Compare Prices

Elite Beat Agents

You won't find a stranger and more addictive rhythm game on a handheld system than Elite Beat Agents.

Compare Prices

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

Though the game is heavily text-driven and there's little replayability, it's a bright, rich, and lengthy adventure that could hardly have been improved upon otherwise.
