Super Mario Galaxy

If a Mario title did not make the list, then something is very wrong with the order of the world. Released in November 2007, Nintendo Wii Super Mario Galaxy is like the average Mario platform games but was given a new 3D twist. It is not surprising to hear that it has brought home countless Game of the Year Awards seeing how Nintendo managed to sell 6.10 million copies worldwide!

Wii Fit

The prospect of exercising is suddenly looking more exciting with Nintendo’s Wii Fit. Together with the game disc, Nintendo has bundled an ergonomic-looking balancing peripheral that works wirelessly with the help of four AA batteries. Just like Brain Age attempts to measure your brain power, Wii Fit will tell you how healthy you are and will make recommendations based on your Body Mass Index (BMI) calculations. How’s that for your very own virtual trainer?

Trauma Center: Second Opinion

You don’t need proper medical training to be an aspiring doctor and surgeon, just a steady hand! Nintendo Wii’s Trauma Center: Second Opinion lets you play the part of Dr. Derek Stiles, a doctor found to possess the Healing Touch, a rare condition that promotes his, well, healing touch. Making an incision using the Nunchuk and Wii controllers is a challenge but coupled with the engrossing storyline, we proclaim that Trauma Center for the Wii is made of pure win!

Control-wise, the Wiimote and Nunchuk can be utilized to perform a variety of wall jumps, long jumps and gravity defying somersaults. The Star Pointer is your on-screen guide that lets you pick up Star Bits which can be forcefully projected to stun enemies and manipulate items. Tired of playing alone? You can pit yourself against your friends and family in the Co-Star Mode where both you and the secondary player control your respective Star Pointers to see who can take down the most enemies.

If you find it amusing to see all in-game coconuts become watermelons in a flash, you basically need to find time and collect 9999 star bits in the hub. To unlock the death count feature and see how many times you have perished while playing Super Mario Galaxy, you need to collect 120 Stars from the Grand Finale Galaxy. Disappointed that you can’t play the game using Luigi? Don’t be! Again, acquire 120 Stars, talk to Rosalina on the Comet Observatory and ask to duke it out with Bowser again. Upon completion, you’ll see a message pop up saying that you’ve now gained the ability to use Luigi as a playable character!

Super Mario Galaxy Grand Finale Galaxy and Star 121 for Mario and Luigi

To unlock the final star and galaxy, collect all 120 stars with Luigi and beat Bowser. Doing so unlocks the Grand Finale Galaxy, accessible from the green trial planet, which is the Star Festival seen in the beginning of the game. Collecting the 100 purple coins in this galaxy gets you the final star.
