    Ghost squad is fun. I wanna try La Machine gun. New supermario bros is great. Boom blox is fun. The bit trip series is great too. Of course no more heros. I love contra and castlevania rebirth. Dr mario rx is awesome. Tatsunoko vs capcom. But dont get the hori stick, get the mad catz stick. It uses hifher quality microswitches and sanwa and seimitsu parts just pop in, no soldering or sanding required to mod it to (unlike the hori)

    Try as I might, I cannot find that Samurai Shodown collection disc for the Wii anywhere in my area.
    That's a rare one if you ask me...

    Some idiot told me to move to Japan when I said Nintendo's refusal to localize these games is a big FUCK YOU to the loyal fanbase that will still be there after the fickle casuals move on

    I rather enjoyed Trauma Center but it has caveats for this particular topic:

    1) It is a remake of the DS game. Essentially revamped puzzles that use the wiimote in some cool ways, some annoying. Also takes advantage of the 3D hardware (for the most part this too is a good thing)
    2) It can be considered a series of "mini-games". Assuming you define "mini" as taking 5-10 minutes per "game". Unlike Wario Ware the gaming sessions are tied together to form story arcs.

    Came out shortly after launch and was overshadowed by quite a few games. Oddly some of the harder puzzles for the DS version became quite a bit easier with the Wii release and vice versa.

    It's just business sense. JRPGs don't sell very well in North America anyway, so why bother bringing these games over?
