An overview of the most popular Wii games is presented, along with a guide for purchasing Wii games.

Wii has become very popular in the last three years. More than 24 million Wii consoles have been sold, which means it is out selling all other game consoles on the market today, including Xbox 360. To support the Wii consoles, Wii games are being produced at a greater rate than any other gaming console games.

Early Wii games had one drawback and that was with the quality of the graphics. However, this problem is changing as the next generation of games becomes available for all the Wii gamers.

Before buying Wii games you should check out their quality rating at many of the Wii game rating websites. You will be surprised to find that some of the lower graphic games have some of the best ratings. While some of the better graphic games have poor ratings. The ratings are based on the design and human interaction with the game. Of course Wii is no different than any of the other gaming systems; they all have good and poor games.

A new feature of Wii is its Nintendo Channel on the main menu. This channel allows you to preview new games which have been developed and will soon be hitting the stores.

Makers of Wii games include: Nintendo, UbiSoft, Activision, Electronic Arts, THQ, and others.
