REMEMBER: A lot of GameStops & EB Games are still selling Wii games cheap... so snag these ASAP!

I'd say Opoona is a game I don't see mentioned much, Rodea the Skysoldier is another interesting one that was released on the Wii U with a dual pack that contained its original superior Wii version making it a weird kind of last "real" game released on the Wii if we don't count Just Dance every year.

SO HAPPY TO SEE PANDORAS TOWER!!! I was part of operation rainfall to help bring that game over as well as last story and Xenoblade

Nice list of games here Jason. I own a couple of these. The calling was fun even though, it has meh controls.

I still play and collect Wii games. It rocks, I don't care what anyone says. Great video. 👊

More Wii gems: Klonoa, Wario Land: Shake It, Rayman origins, Batman brave and the bold, Ju-on, Rage Of The Gladiator, Gunslingers, Pirates PlundARRR

Some of my favorite hidden gems are. Phantom Brave Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love Castle of Shikigami III Tatsunoko vs Capcom Epic Mickey Muramasa: The Demon Blade Klonoa Sin & Punishmenr: Star Successor No More Heroes 2 Wario Land: Shake It Pandora’s Tower MadWorld The House of the Dead: Overkill

I really appreciate that you put the games that appear in the video in the description!!!

Nice list! Metal Jesus still won't admit that he loves his Cartoon Network shows

A lot of games I never would have even heard of if it weren't for your hidden gems videos. These are always a treat. And I like how you can suggest a game that may not be perfect but has the fun factor which most game review sites stay far away from. Thanks dude!

I always thought the Wii was kiddish. But as I slowly collected for this console I realize how awesome and how many hidden gems there are!

Out of all my subscribed videos, yours are the only ones I watch instantly when they are released. Cheers dude.

HE DID IT. HE PRONOUNCED KAMEN RIDER CORRECT. You don't know how rarely thst happens with bigger KZfaqr. and just giving the franchise more attention is awesome. There were more for this series on the Wii, Japanese only. And the shows are awesome too

Wii is the last console without updates and dlc tha is why i have 200+ games

keep putting out these videos man, love being reminded of all the great games right under our noses. I mean most these you can find for as low as a dollar its crazy

Tenchu Shadow Assassins is one of the best games on the Wii, such a hidden gem

Great video, the Wii gets a bad rap because of all the shovel ware but I personally have loved it ever since I first got one.

Wooowww!!! Looking for Wii hidden gems was how I found this channel 5 years ago (back when I got my Wii) and your channel has only got better through all this years Thanks for all your passion and dedication Jason

I love the hidden gems series! Thanks for shedding light on these games and giving me a list of things to try.

I played COD WaW exclusively on the Wii back in 2008 as I couldn't afford powerful next gen consoles like the 360 and PS3, so back then playing Call of Duty on the Wii was all I knew. Looking back, it was a great, unique, and memorable experience ^_^.

I knew you would mention Pandora's Tower! :D

Dude these Wii hidden gem videos legit changed my views on the Wii 👏👏

I hope they release Time Crisis 5 for consoles someday.

I always look forward to seeing games people never played before. I have half of these you have mentioned. Always thank you for making videos. I have a library to check out with games so I will let you know

Its been a while since you did a Wii hidden gems. Thanks!!!

Yes!! Love my old Wii and gems. Thank you bro

Thanks for these hidden gems vids. Really informative as well. You rock!

i love your HIDDEN GEEEEMS video. please keep it going!

That intro is just legendary. Still cool many years later.

Love these hidden gem videos! I definitely have some games to look for now!

Fantastic GEMS video with lots of great titles! Thanks for another awesome video!

Thanks, always love your videos!

That Shiren the Wanderer game reminds me a ton of the Pokémon mystery dungeon games. Those games are sweet. Can't wait to check it out and all the other games. Thanks for the sweet video Metal Jesus.

Calling sounds like those early 90s board games with electronic voices.

That's a pretty decent list of hidden gems. I've only heard of one of those games. Good job

Wow, hidden is right. I haven't heard of any of these games. Time to change that!

Thank u for the hidden gems videos. They r my fav

I'm looking for more Wii games. Thanks for the video.

Sin and Punishment 2 and Metroid Prime 3's aiming show what the wii was capable of. Amazing gameplay

I'm glad you mentioned Pandora's Tower. That and The Last Story got overshadowed by Xenoblade Chronicles, which is unfortunate because all three are great. I'd also recommend the Wii beat em up, Spyborgs, especially if you're in PAL territory because the version they got is technically a later version of the game that balanced the A.I. much better.

Love the videos. Do you think you could do a video on how many hours gaming you do and how much you put into each game. You seem to get through so many games. Anyway keep up the good work, love the metal Jesus crew.

Your videos are awesome thanks for making them!

Thanks metal Jesus, I have quite a few hidden gems in my wii collection and I haven't heard of a single one of these games.

Wow man! Thank you for this video! I recently pulled out the Wii and started playing see underrated titles like sin and punishment maramasa deamon blade! I wanted to find other games to start collecting and your video really gave me so much more excitement to start collecting! Sub button clicked! 🤘

I need another of these wii hidden gems videos! ❤

I really like your channel. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MY Wii U. Some people don't realize that you can play on it hundreds of old school games, from the NES (I was a teenager when this platform came out and thanks to the Wii U I am able to relive great times) onward.

I love waking up to a new hidden gems video!

I watched the previous 3 Wii Hidden Gems videos and was surprised you haven't mentioned Dreadly Creatures or Fragile. Both are great games that didn't get much recognition.

I stayed away from the Wii for many years but decided it was the right time to pick one up a few years ago. I was very surprised on how many fun games were available and actually enjoyed the unique controls the Wii can offer. Also, a great plus is that so many games are cheap so it's easier to jump in and get started.

I'm new to Wii collecting. I mainly got it to play De Blob again, but I've been amazed at the library for it. I've been a playstation guy for the most part of the past 20 years so a lot of these titles are new to me and I'm having a blast playing through them!

Do you guys remember deadly creatures? You play as a scorpion and one of the humans in the game is voice by Billy Bob Thornton, how crazy!

Love your videos.. i am planning on purchasing a S/H Wii purely for the light gun games, will get as many as are affordable whenever I see them for sale.. But seeing your Wii hidden gems videos has made me realise there are some other types of game that I just must have like No more Heroes, for example. I am now conflicted on whether to get a Wii gen 1 or a Wii U.. I was originally going to get a Wii Gen 1 as all the S/H ones sold at Eb are warrantied and come with a nunchuck, remote and SENSOR bar.. But the big thing is I can play all my original Gamecube discs.. and I have some true classics for G/C like double dash/wave Race/F Zero GX/Sanity's Requiem/Geist/Total Warrior/Etc.. But the WiiU dropped GC support. So do i just keep my GC console and get a Wii U for wii games, and get the sensor bar/remotes etc as I find them.. Or does the WiitoHDMI adapter actually give 1080P like the WiiU, on wii Games? I presume the original Wii is only 480P like the gamecube? (I use the component adapter on gamecube).. The issue is the TV is 60" 4K so gamecube leaves bars at either side, not the end of the world, but it's fairly blurry, and I figured 1080P would be much nicer.. If the only way to play all Wii games in HD is to get a WiiU, I think I'll just keep my 720P sony bravia 28" TV for GC/PS2/Dreamcast rather than trying to have them all on the 60". Maybe that will solve it. And get a WiiU dedicated solely to Wii and Wii U games.. but any advice appreciated. Also it SUCKS that apparently the wii AND wiiU shops are now closed.. you can't add more credits and buy the virtual console games anymore.. grrr.. I do have a new 3ds XL.. are there any major virtual console games on the WII that i'll be missing out on, that I can't get on my 3DS? I got the ones I really want so far, castlevania of course, a couple sega titles, and so forth...

If you like Shiren Wanderer you MUST find Chocobo Dungeon

Another fantastic video!!

Hi, Mr MJ! I just brought back a Wii and a bunch of great games. Thanks you for helping me to make choices with your videos about Wii games. I think I have an interesting Idea to submit... I really love the motion control... That's the specificity of this system and it's really fun but... Would you please make another video with the best games that are playable with a traditionnal gamepad (like the beautiful red Wii pro pad that I'm about to purchase...)? I'm sure there will be a lot of fighters and shooters (I like them too...) but I really hope you'll be able to surprise me and make me discover more new great tittles. Thank you for your work and keep on rockin'!

Heavy fire looks cool, love the rail shooters on the wii. House of the dead, resident evil etc. I'll definitely pick it up and check out the call of duties too. Awesome vid as always 👍

Woah! Great video!

Very nice video dude

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars is a hidden gem on the wii and overall a very underrated fighting game. If you're a fan of the Versus (series) Capcom games or fighting games in general, definitely check that one out!

BOOM, perfect timing for Friday night down here in Australia!

I appreciate you showing love for the Wii, and really showing what any given platform or console has to offer. There seems to be a collective blind ignorance when it comes to the Wii, and looking at your past collection of Wii hidden gems, I instantly spotted two of my all-time favorite games for any console. Those are Sin And Punishment: Star Successor and Muramasa: The Demon Blade. Your channel will always be my speed, as I am an open-minded gamer, just trying to find fun games to play.

This videos makes me want to keep alive my WiiU, thanks Metal Jesus

Great video!

Jason, you are awesome. I love your channel since 2013.

Awesome video! Now that the Wii U is basically sleeping, I'm planning to use it to play some Wii games in glorious HD.

It is amazing, the Wii that is. They had such a collection of rare and great games, just not publicized the way it should have. I was one of those that bought a Wii when it came out, and saw it as a glorified Gamecube, and shoved it away. Very surprised in what it has and can do. Thanks MJR!!!

Hey man. I just wanted to tell you that I finally subcribed to your channel after watching your content for ages now :D I really like your content and the way you present your content. Plus you seem like a very decent dude AND your videos are swear free. I appreciate that 🤗 Keep up the great work 👍 Take care 🙋

One of my favorite consoles!

It's probably not considered a hidden gem, but Tatsunoko vs Capcom was a Wii exclusive and is one of the very best fighting games ever made. At one point they lost the license for Tatsunoko and stopped producing them (not too long after the game originally came out, couple of years maybe)

I completely agree about Gormiti and Generator Rex. They're both keepers in my collection. If you like them, I highly recommend Secret Saturdays: Beasts of the Fifth Sun. I enjoyed that game so much that I tracked down the cartoon which is pretty awesome too.

I love first person shooters on the wii! Red Steel 2, Goldeneye 007 and Metroid Prime 3 are my favourites. I tried Call of Duty: Modern Warfare on the wii and the controls were solid enough but for me the framerate was far too low for me to consider it playable.

That calling concept is cool!

Fridays are the best, end of the work week, and new MetalJesus!

Thanks! I have a severe lack of Wii games and i'm looking to get more.

Hi from France , really like your videos and your team, very funny, nice discovery, keep it going :) !

My wii hidden gem is probably Rodea the Sky Soldier; it didn't even get its own case, it was bundled in with the game of the same name for the Wii U (though the wii and wii u versions are pretty much different games altogether). It's one of the only games I've played where I feel like the motion controls actually help it be easier to control and more fun. It feels a bit like a mix between Sonic and NiGHTS, two of my favorite series, so I would definitely recommend you try it out (the wii u version is no good sadly)

What about Little King Story, The Last Story, Dog Island, Sakura Wars, Kororinpa2, Endless Oceans 1and2 and Phantom Blue?

Perfect vid good stuff!! Curently collecting Wii

Gormidi was also in the united states as well but it never caught on around here. I probably saw a couple of episodes here and there years ago.

Love Pandora's Tower! One of my faves on the Wii.

Awesome video ! Great games!

Awesome video 👍

Just picked up my 3rd wii system, I always knew there’s a reason why I always returned to getting a wii there’s something special about it. I sold my first 2 wii now that a have another one I won’t let this go. Some great hidden gems. Thank you

I love these hidden gems videos. They made me subscribe to your channel

man I love ur channel brother! long live hard copies!

Great video Metal Jesus. Any chance you can do a 3DO buyers guide or hidden gems. I’m looking into start collecting for that system. Keep up the great work!

Great shout out for the Zapper when playing the CoD games on the Wii! I love playing FPS games with the Zapper. Like you said MJR, it's a one-of-a-kind experience only found on the Wii (and Wii U). Good call.

Thank you for making these Wii Hidden Gems videos. The Wii is somewhat underated imo, as people tend to think that the Wii is a complete dumbster fire, with not much of anything worth playing. These videos really help showcase that there is other games worth playing on it. I currently own quite a few titles myself, some of which you've shown in past videos, and a few I've bought along the way. Yes the Wii has garbage to dig through, but if you can spend the effort to do that, then you might just be surprised what's buried in the lot. And that makes the Wii one of the best hidden gems consoles imo.

Whoop! Great to see Generator Rex.

Great! a new hidden gem video! *buys them all

i love your channel mate

Great video! I think that Wii has many hiddem gems. I like these hiddem gems videos. Hi from Brazil!

for myself, watching metaljesus' wii related videos are more enjoyable than actually playing any wii games except for resident evil 4, at least from my experience. felt so good when i sold most of my wii stuffs early this year. yet, it is fun to watch any wii related videos lol.

Pinball Hall of Fame the Gottlieb Collection and especially the Williams Collection work particularly well with Wii motion control for nudging the M/C and flipper separation on Wiimote and nunchuck. One of the best pinball simulations ever!

If you like Shiren the Wanderer, Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon, also on the Wii, plays very similarly. There are actually a lot of them for a variety of franchises on consoles from the Wii all the way down to the SNES. I've seen Dragon Warrior (Talloon/Torneko), Final Fantasy (Chocobo), and even Pokémon, and each franchise is tweaked to play just a little differently; the franchise is called Fushigi na Dungeon or Mystery Dungeon. Also, I've been on the fence about Pandora's Tower for a long time, now, but seeing it in action has finally convinced me.

Hey MetalJesus! What do you use to upscale your Wii games? The resolution looks great!!!

Never expected to see a Kamen Rider game here, Jason. You should probably check Kamen Rider Climax Heroes series that were also released for the Wii. It's japanese, but it plays the same way as KRDK.

Calling. Though it was good. It's the Disney version of Fatal Frame. You should play Fatal Frame 2 Wii and Fatal Frame 4. Those are some hidden gems.

Wii had so many awesome games that most people had no idea existed. Oh and those Wii CoD games were my favorite console iterations thanks to the controls.

I’m gonna pick up that heavy fire game! Looks fun!
