For instant, accessible fun on Wii, look no further than Wii Play: Motion - a collection of 12 innovative, fun minigames that specifically show off the special capabilities of the Wii Remote Plus. Cone Zone is another strong inclusion, a spin on the mobile phone classic Tower Bloxx, in which you have to hold your remote upright - it’s a stand-in for your waffle cone - as a Godzilla-sized scoop piles on blobs of ice cream. Keep the cone steady and you’ve got a decent leaderboard game, and one that really plays on the MotionPlus’ added sensitivity. There’s a neat bonus mode too – many of the mini-games come with cheeky variants – that sees you collecting swirled ice cream by tilting the remote in gentle circles. It’s far harder than it sounds.

It would be interesting to see some of the most popular games updated in a new title, alongside modern graphics and new game modes.

That the peak of the Nintendo Wii's popularity has passed seems hard to dispute. There haven't been many new games out for the system in the past year or so, leaving many families with a console in the front room that's rarely used for much more than the occasional bout of Wii Sports. For the more dedicated gamer, titles such as last year's Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Kirby's Epic Yarn have kept the console alive for involving, captivating single-player and co-op experiences, but since Wii Sports Resort, there haven't been any real multiplayer classics – with the possible exception of Wii Party.

Wii Play is a bit of a forgotten entry between its more well-known siblings. It’s not as influential or famous as Wii Fit or Wii Party, which will feature later down this list. Nonetheless, the game was widespread. It’s the fifth best-selling Wii game of all time and even received a sequel, Wii Play Motion.

Nintendo could use the diverse playstyles of the Switch to build a multitude of game modes that are all evenly unique and fun experiences. The earlier Wii Party games provide a solid foundation for a more consistently enjoyable party game in the future.
