The wii is finally here! What games are available currently, and what are on the horizon? Read on for those answers and more.



As of March 2007, there are quite a few games out for the nintendo wii, with many, many more on the way. Truly 2007 will be the year of the Wii!

Of the games currently out, those that are the best include: Zelda Twilight Princess, Rayman Raving Rabies, Sonic and the Secret Rings, and Warioware Wii.

The future is very promising for the Wii as Nintendo has many franchises under its belt to yet pull out. This includes Pokemon, which will be an arena based fighting game including online play, which will be released shortly, as well as Metroid which should make an appearance this summer.

Of course the biggest granddaddy of them all, Mario, will make his triumphant return in Super Mario Galaxy, just in time for Christmas. Super Smash Brothers is also in development, which will also feature online play. I can't even begin to imagine how much fun that will be!

Nintendo will also see its share of third party titles this year, with efforts in developement including a new Resident Evil game, Dragon Quest, and even a Final Fantasy title! Many exclusives are also on their way.

There have been some bumps along the way as developers have learned how to properly take advantage of the unique wii controls. Many of the launch games left much to be desired, with many of them simply revolving around minigames but I feel the future for Nintendo is very bright! Now bring out the games!
