Obscure, good Wii games

Sadly, my store doesnt have a copy.

Give them time, I just counted and 38 stores within 100 miles of me have it now. Or do a search and see if your local store will get another store to transfer a copy in.

Yeah asking the manager to transfer a copy is the easiest way to get the game without wasting gas if you can't find it close to you. I've managed to get quite a few rare Wii games with this method, so just give it a shot and see what they can do for you.

One game I'm surprised no one has mentioned yet is Oregon Trail. I guess to be totally honest, I had no idea this game existed on the Wii until very recently. I placed a copy on hold at GS and will be going to pick it up tomorrow. It goes for $30 to $40 on the BAY which is pretty pricy for a Wii title.

I hadn't heard of it before - just checked, and no Gamestops within 100 miles of me have it either. Oh well, another one to put on the list to keep my eye out for.

Calling? Huh, one of Hudson's last games. Have to pick it up some time.

[burningdoom]

Holy crap! I HAVE to get Oregon Trail!

Another game to pick up is King of Fighters: Orochi Saga which has KoF 94' through '98, and it seems fairly rare as well. There's also:
-samurai shodown anthology
 -dragon's lair collection,
- mad dog mccree collection
- counter force ( better known as exzeus which was originally for the sega naomi, okay rail shooter)
- koroinpa marble saga ( fun marable puzzle game)
- spectrobes origins
-phantom brave: we meet again ( tactics rpg that's better that has added features from the original ps2 version, also on psp with a additional mode called puzzlehunt)
-mini ninjas

 Right now, I've been checking with my gamestop for some more wii games, and I'm waiting for them to ship 3 games to my store: Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, KoF Orochi Saga, and Data East Arcade Classics. Hopefully I'll be able to get all of these since the last two are much cheaper at gs than online, so wish me luck.

Also want to point out, after picking up a CIB F1 2009, that there are some price changes on Gamestop's website. The only ones I've seen so far were Fritz Chess $25-30, Xenoblade $55-60, and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn $65-70. Does this mean we might be seeing reprints of any of these games soon?

I doubt there's any real demand for Fritz Chess. But Xenoblade and Fire Emblem have already seen a reprint I think.

Fire Emblem hasn't.  I wish it would get one, honestly.

[krelyan]

Yeah, I'd love to see them re-issue both the GameCube and Wii Fire Emblems. Missed out on those .

When I saw the Wii Fire Emblem price go from $65-70, I think it shows there's a good chance they'll reprint the game, especially since they just did reprints for One Piece Unlimited Adventure and the Calling, two rare Wii games in the last year. However, I think you're out of luck for  a FE: Path of Radiance reprint since Nintendo isn't going to reprint Gamecube games. I managed to get my complete copy for a really good price back in December, and that was pretty lucky. I would suggest waiting a while, as prices will probably drop a bit in the next few months hopefully, since buying it right now is around $80+ for a complete copy on ebay.

Yeah, I'm not exactly holding my breath for a GC reprint, fortunately.  I'd really like to see them port the 2 games as a bundle to the Wii U.  One day, maybe.

I hope there will be a new fire emblem bundle/ new game on the Wii U, but it would only work if Nintendo advertised it well. I believe that Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn sold pretty terrible because of the lack of advertising and those low sales almost killed the series, so at this point, I think it would work if advertised well and sold decently on the Wii U ( both are things that many games don't have on that console at the moment, unfortunately).

They need to put out the SMT x Fire Emblem game, that would definitely get the series some more interest.
