Title: Defend Your Castle - Trailer
Price: 500 Wii Points
Players: 1-4
Uses: Wiimote only
JPS
Classic online game turned Wii game, basically stick figures charge your castle and theres a bunch of different ways of killing them, from picking them up and tossing them high in the air to dropping them into the "Pit of Conversion", you can also upgrade your castle to make it stronger, I made it to level 18 so far, and having a blast all the way through it, supports up to 4 players at a time. IMO its definitely worth the $5.

Title: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My life as a King - Trailer
Price: 1,500 Wii Points
Players: 1
Uses: Wiimote/Nunchuck
Red Dragon
Really it's a game you have to check out for yourself, for around $15 you suprisingly get a good deep, yet simple, game. The DLC isn't all that bad, I guess. I would rather not have it myself but an extra $15 on an already great game otherwise isn't too bad. Usually you would see this kind of game sold in stores for $40-50.
It loses a star because it's not a game anyone can get into. As there is no action involved at all. If you play this to get your heart pumping than you are playing the wrong game.

I havent got anywhere so far as I just got it, the controls are really clunky and I just cant get the hang of it, I know its just me, not the game. Other then that its masterfully created, the art style and the scenery makes for a very relaxing game. The soundtrack is also very calming.

I love Lost Winds. The art style, the music, the level design, everything. and it's really relaxing to play. if I had to rank it using a 5 star system, it'd get 5.

Title: Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People - Trailer

This game was (finally) released. I used to like all that junk a whole lot, so I gave it a download. If you don't have a Wii, you can play it on PC (for a dollar cheaper??). There's even a demo!
So, this game is short. It's supposed to be episodic content, though. Completing just the main parts of the game will take you 2-4 hours, unless you're just baffled by point-and-click adventure game logic. I glanced at gamefaqs message board (never again) a couple of times to figure out solutions, but most of the adventureneering is pretty straightforward and you will most likely have an idea of what to do.
But of course, the reason you'd play an old school point/clicker like this would hardly be the small gratifications of completing idiotic-jump-of-logic puzzles. Rather, I think you'd be playing this game because you derived entertainment from Homestarrunner.com at some point and hope this game is borne of the same goofy, dumb humor of the website. Well it is, mostly. Some lines are pretty much what you would hear out of any of the Chaps brothers animations, whereas some are standard pointclicketc game filler. The game seems to be written half by the brothers Chaps, half by the other guy that they hired. A lot of it is entertaining, but it's only entertaining if you like homestarrunner. Which I do. So I enjoyed it.
You get some extras in the game, like the ability to take pictures and send em to your wii friends, but who caaaaaaaares
I'd score this 3 out of 5. If you don't like Homestar Runner though, it's more like 1.5 out of 5.
Also, I might recommend you score the demo first, if you're wary. It's got like, 1/3 the game in there.
