Who's still playing their Wii?

I recently read about Nintendon't. Gave it a shot last week, and I must say, it's (censored) awesome! You can even play the FZero and Mario Kart arcades.

The wait. What?

a nice piece of software that lets you play GC games of the HDD, lets you use (pretty much) any controller you want and can save to virtual mem cards.

Mine got benched. I can access my virtual console games like the Turbo and SNES games on my Wii U now. There are some games I own I plan to go back to (Fragile Dreams, Last Story, Xenoblade, Pandora's Tower, No More Heroes 2) but for now, it's on the sidelines.
I did hear there was someone who was hosting servers for Tatsunoko vs Capcom, and that's pretty cool. It's not enough for me to use my Wii regularly at this time though.

I mainly use my Wii to play GC games once in a while, like every couple months. But I did pickup a little gem called the Ultimate Shooting Collection, might test it out now that I've thought of it, ha ha ha!

I haven't played for awhile, but I recently downloaded Gate Of Thunder for it. I can't wait to try that out. I hope it plays as good as on the Turbo.

Sometimes yes, specially GC games on component are a delight.

When I hook it back up to the TV again...yes.

Got my Wii-U hooked up and was recently working on rainbowing NES Remix.  There's some stuff I want on WiiWare though, in particular Castlevania: The Adventure Rebirth and Gradius Rebirth.  I don't love that I will have to go into Wii emulation mode to buy/play them though.  I do have the original Wii but we transferred stuff off if it to the Wii-U when we got it, so buying something for it now it seems silly.  I dunno!

Have not been on here in a while but all I play for the tg16 now is my wii virtual console. My system broke somehow or just died about 8 months during the move into my house along with my everdrive braking.  So I said hell with it I just stuck to virtual console and I'm happy with that.

emulators and GC on component with a CRT look gorgeous

Ended up getting the tatsunoko vs capcom arcade stick and I'll tell you using that on games like r type and god and lords of thunder or any shmup is freaking awesome

Hello, I'm new here.   
I still use my Wii on occasion to play NHL Hitz 2003. Other than that it sits there connected but unplugged.

[esadajr]

Welcome new guy.

I had too many unplayed Wii games, so a little while ago I sat down to start going through them. Man, so many of them are just not good. Or rather, they just don't compare to what's actually good.

Even top games like Mario Galaxy I thought too linear and boring. I didn't like either the collecting aspect or the camera, either.  Epic Mickey looked so cool, but meh, mediocre platformers at best. Same with Mushroom Men. TvC is just too busy, not my cup of tea. Pandora's Tower is a horribly put together action RPG that just tries to do too much. One by one I crossed off all the games until I was left with less than a dozen. At the height of my collectardation, I had probably 40-50 GC and Wii games combined. I know have only 18, though F-Zero GX will be #19 (could never get my last copy to work - I think it was resurfaced which killed the disc).

Here they are, the only good games on the two systems:

Gamecube
 
F-Zero GX (still missing)
Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Metroid Prime
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
Star Wars: Rogue Leader
Viewtiful Joe
Viewtiful Joe 2 (never got far in)
 
Wii
 
Boy and His Blob, A
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Ivy the Kiwi? (haven't go to yet, might be terrible, looks great though)
Last Story
Mario Kart Wii
Muramasa: Demon Blade
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Okami
Rayman Origins
Wii Sports (wife's insistence)
Wii Sports Resort (I was able to fit in Wii Sports disc into the other pocket of the box)

Not even all of these are amazing. If I had to get rid of them all, I'd only really miss Metroid Prime 1 & 2 (Rayman Origins is on PC, too).

My parents apparently found a copy of Castlevania: Judgement at a yard sale for a few bucks, because they gave me the first game they've bought for me in 15+ years today.  I've never played it, so I hope it doesn't suck, but it was a nice gesture anyway.
