Best Wii games?
I want to get some more Wii games for my son and I. So far the ones that get played the most at my house are:
I want to get Shaun White's Snow Boarding game and Mario Kart.
Any other good Wii games you can recommend?

World of Goo, which is only available via download from the Wii console will blow you away. My wife and I played it for 3 weeks straight, it is just awesome

World of Goo is truly awesome, but I think you gotta be a nerd to enjoy it. Many of my family members tired of it rather quickly.

 Is this a good price or a bad price?

Most games are between $5 and $10. $15 is a little up there.

Most games are already Nintendo licensed as they are older games designed for previous Nintendo systems. World of Goo is a game designed independently just for the Wii. It's cheap compared to the CD games, which is really the fair comparison.

Don't discount a game just because you don't have a physical piece of plastic. You are getting one of the most highly regarded games of the year.... just because you download it rather than purchasing it from a B&M doesn't make it any less enjoyable

Agreed - see Braid (360) as another great example
