Here it is folks - take your pick.

de Blob - One of the greatest third-party games to ever grace the Wii. Great platforming action with superbly fluid gameplay, and lots of color.

Super Smash Bros Brawl - Probably the most hyped game in the Wii's lineup, and also some of the greatest local multiplayer known to man.

Mario Kart Wii - Online? Check. Mario Kart showed how the Nintendo WFC should have worked in the first place.

Wii Fit - Still selling like hotcakes, Wii Fit is Miyamoto's brainchild that has become a casual craze.

Okami - Yes, it's a port. But it's a well-done port of an amazing game.

If the title you're looking for is not here (e.g. Animal Crossing: City Folk, Boom Blox, etc.), list it in your post and state a valid reason that it should be on this list that I have concocted instead of one of the titles above.

Edit - For all of you who think that No More Heroes should be on this list, I disagree, and you can rip me apart for my own opinion. Please note that this is merely and opinion and not fact, so have at it.

I honestly don't think De Blob should be up there. Its not a bad game, but its no GOTY contender.

Congratulations for not putting No More Heroes on the list. That game lacks so much quality it hurts. It's the most dissapointing game I have ever played. So much love for something half arsed.

On a happier note, Super Smash Bros. Brawl is fantastic! It is the Wii's most hardcore title. It is the only game with perfect multiplayer IMO and the challenges really do challenge you to the max. I clocked in well over 300 hours with this game. Best Game I have played in four years (when Pikmin 2 was released)

Games usually need to be finished to qualify for Game of the Year. That's not a new qualification.

Tell it like it is brotha! Now give me some skin! *SLAP!* Ow, that was too hard. At least you gave it your all (creators of No More Heroes could learn from you)

I hate that MK Wii doesn't get more credit. Unlike Brawl, it actually made use of the main asset of the Wii- the controls! It has way better online play than Brawl as well (no lag and faster matchmaking). Brawl is basically Melee with a few more items, characters and levels. While it is a good game, it does not compare to MK Wii. It is my Wii GOTY.

Only two of those games should be up there and Wii Fit wins hands down.AlexSays

1. Why does Wii Fit win hands down?

2. What's the other deserving game?

3. Do you hate the other games (since you said that 2 games (one of them being Wii Fit (not a bad game, just not GOTY material IMO)) are worthy of being contenders)?

4.Are you trying to make some people mad here?

1.) It's a new addition to an already revolutionary IP by Nintendo which has managed to successfully get millions off the couch while enjoying themselves, something otherwise not thought possible.

2.) On that list? De Blob. Although I don't see why Power Pros. isn't on that list.

3.) No I play Mario Kart regularly and Brawl whenever I feel like listening to Nintendo music. Unfortunately a mediocre game with the balance of a three legged table and a game who's best asset is it's music should not be nominated as the Wii's Game of the Year.

4.) Only those I don't like but I'm not even doing that here.

By far, Super Smash Bros. Brawl is the best Wii game to come out this year, and is probably my second personal favorite game this year overall.

I was afraid that Smash Bros would take a lopsided lead. It's a good game, don't get me wrong. But it isn't very original and the online is broken.

TC, I think you should've put 4 nominees and then an OTHER category. As for me, Super Smash Bros Brawl is the easy pick for me, just like Super Mario Galaxy was the easy pick for me last year. If there's one undeniable thing among the Wii titles, it is that Brawl should win the award for best original sound track.

Okami doesn't count for the same reason Bioshock doesn't count this year. They're both ports. The game was released before on different consoles and just because it was released a year later doesn't automatically renew it's GOTY potential.

I don't know. I just wasn't that impressed with SSBB. I have tried it and tried it, yet i can't get into it like i have with MKWii.

World of Goo needs to be on that list.

Here's what my top 10 would look like (and yes, I realize that nobody will agree with me. That's why it's my top 10 and not yours):

1: World of Goo

2: Tetris Party

3: Mario Kart Wii

4: Boom Blox

5: Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection

6: Wii Fit

7: de Blob

8: Okami

9: Pro Evolution Soccer 2008

10: Super Smash Brothers Brawl

I know, but their should all win because they were some of the best Wii games to come out this year.

If I had to pick it would be Brawl, then Wii Fit, then MKW, then de Blob. I never pleyed Okami but I heard it was pretty good.

Honestly I believe that the Wii GOTY should belong to Super Smash Bros Brawl. Amazing multiplayer game and amazing graphics for the Wii.

I would say brawl, but Mario Kart is a good contender, and I wish I had the chance to play the other games as well. I think TOS:DOTNW should be on the list, as it may have appealed to many who have played the first one. I want to try it out REAL bad. XD

It's kind of crazy how landslide of a victory SSBB has. It's a fun game, but I'd rank every game from that list higher. I wasn't even hyped for Brawl and I feel like it didn't deliver. IMO, it's more "more of the same" than Mario Kart Wii. As far as GOTY, it belongs to World of Goo.

How is Brawl winning? I was instantly disgusted by the fact it takes at least 4 attempts to get the game working every time I choose to play it, I realise Nintendo clean Wii dvd lenses for this reason but firstly the problem does come back, and secondly it should not be a problem in the first place.
