    Another hidden gem I just remembered would have to be Little King's Story. If you like Pikmin, it's a must play. Its absolutely incredible!

    It blows my mind that Mushroom Men isn't more widely known, that game was so awesome! I never hear anyone talk about it, it's such a shame! Oh, there's also a DS title called Rise of the Fungi! I have it, but haven't got to it yet.

    Excellent - There's one I completely forgot about when I left my list before, called The Kore Gang. A very imaginative 3D platformer. Can be a bit expensive, I had to import my copy from Germany.

    Finally a game series that I played at the time and LOVED. I absolutely loved the Overlord series. I had no idea that it was basically a Pikmin-like as wasnt aware Pikmin existed. But I still loved the dark humour and the base/castle building mechanic

    I always wanted to check out a boy and his blob on the Wii. I found the original NES at a thrift store way back when, when you could actually find stuff like that in the wild for cheap, and thought it was a great concept. Enjoyed the game too, but definitely got stumped a few times.

    • @fourlightsorchestra

      @Adventure Always haha, I feel you buddy.
      I mean, the real reason is “time changes everything”. Mass access to auction sites like eBay, where people can see what things sell for is another factor.
      So many people throw out their recently “old” things in favor of the new, never stoping to consider if might be something classic. I think about this stuff a lot. Right now is the time to collect for old Xbox and to a lesser extent, Wii and ps2. I’m a little sad everything has gone digital. There will come a time in our lifetimes where you won’t find old titles in thrift stores anymore, just a console with whatever games have been downloaded onto it, and beyond that, consoles will probably become obsolete.

    The best thing about Mushroom Men is the soundtrack that was written by Primus’ Les Claypool. He released an album called “Of Fungi and Foe” that featured music from Mushroom Men and another game, I think it was called boar hunt or something. I highly recommend giving the album a listen

    BOOM BLOX!!! I miss the custom levels on the server back in the day. They reminded me of how Super Mario Maker is, some automated levels with a simple trigger and they were a wonder to watch. I've forgotten about it a little but hope to find a way to get them again :)

    I never had a Wii ( I was a somewhat bigoted PS3 guy/snob. 🙄) but I had plenty of family and friends that did and I liked the Conduit 1 & 2, plus Red Steel 1 & 2 also liked Wii Island Resort and you mentioned Cursed Mountain in previous video.
    Yeah surprised you didn’t mention Little King’s Story and Boom Blox was Fun! 😎
    What I noticed about the Wii is it had a LOT of Shovelware but every system has that! However depending on the title/game there is plenty of fun to be had! 😉

    Speed Racer is good and cheap. It cost me $5. Back to the Future is a point and click game I bought new for $10.
    Michael Fox of course has health issues but he still kicked in as did Christopher Lloyd. It's good. Mercury Meltdown Revolution I have bought a few times. People are thieves. But it's around a buck. It's a tilt game with puzzle elements. Finally Spyborgs. By Capcom, it's a lot like Alien Storm on the Mega Drive. I also got that for $10 day one.
    Wii has tons of great games.
