150 Wii games and I want more

Noticed a distinct lack of Rabbids Go Home
Its charming and hilarious, has cool customization features, and the collecty/racey/platformy thing that the gameplay consists of stays fun throughout.
Its the rabbids at their best, but I dont think the minigame crowd bought it so Ubisoft went back to pumping out more minigame compilations.

Another vote or Fishing Resort w/rod attachment.
Then why on earth would you leave out And Yet it Moves? The WiiWare version craps all over the PC version and it's one of the best games on there!

This. Don't let the other games put you off, this is a genuinely good one.
And how incredibly dumb gamers are who kept insisting the bolded was true.

Of your 'to get' list, I enjoyed:
Another Code R
Animal Crossing
Batman the Brave and the Bold
Captain Rainbow (played a bit through with a translation because I love Skip's games, hard going though)
Deadly Creatures
Disaster: Day of Crisis
Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat (New Play Control) - better on GCN with the drums
Mario Strikers Charged
Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 - AWESOME controls
Monster Hunter 3
Pikmin 2 (New Play Control)
Silent Hill: Shattered Memories - Best game in the series since 2
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars
Trauma Team
Man, so many great quirky games on the Wii.

Surely, you mean Project Zero 4&2? The first one wasn't released on Wii.

But yeah, they are wrong. Dead wrong.

Since you have all the other Sega rail shooters, I'm going to strongly recommend this:
Fantastic ports.
WTF?!
I was pissed the entire gen that those games didn't had a Wii port... But they do?!?

Just watched the IGN review of that Deadly Creatures game, It looks really unusual. Actually very refreshing. Makes you feel like a child again.

Thanks to this thread I discovered Fishing Resort. I have to buy it now. Sounds amazing.

Yeah I played through the whole thing for that reason.
In one sense it lives up to the promise. You literally play as a spider and a scorpion and have to traverse environments using arachnid skills. There's a very nicely done 'human' story that plays out in the background too, a really nice (if simple) indie film-like thing.
The aesthetic is good too. Not a 100 million dollar game, but definitely uses the tech the Wii has to create a nice atmosphere, particularly the lighting.
The downside is that the controls suck. It's one of the early 'waggle' games that really does work worse than buttons would have. Classic controller, or just less 'waggle to attack' would have made it much more enjoyable.
Still, a flawed but fun fairly unique indie gem.
Tomb Raider: Anniversary on the Wii is a good game. It's also not simply a straight port from the PC and other console versions.
Unlike said versions - which all feature the traditional, automatic lock-on shooting mechanism past Tomb Raider games are known for - the Wii version features pointer-based shooting controls. All things considered, it works pretty well.
One downside is that there are a bunch of puzzles/actions that also make use of motion-controls, which in practice often has you performing more steps to execute simple actions, such as pulling levers, than the other versions. A few puzzles are downright awful in execution due to poorly designed motion-controls, but overall the controls seem to work fine.
There's also Tomb Raider: Underworld for the Wii, but I haven't played it so I can't comment on its quality. I'm guessing the controls are very similar to Anniversary. I do seem to recall hearing that certain levels were truncated in size and that some enemies (such as sharks in the water levels) were removed, compared to the other versions.
Another game not on your list is The Kore Gang, which is a platformer in which you control 3 different characters in a mechanized suit. Again though, as I haven't played it, I can't comment on whether or not it's a good game. Unfortunately, the reviews on Amazon are mixed, so it's hard to say.

Octomania isn't a bad puzzle game (it isn't a particularly great one either). Its by the creator of Puyo Puyo so story mode is a similar format of silly skits with weird characters.
Wordjong party is decent if you like word games but you can probably find it on other systems.
DJ Hero would appreciate having a controller. Also IIRC DJ Hero 2 has all the songs from the first (can't remember if they were on disc or DLC).

It was called Ultimate shooting collection. Didn't put much time into it due to not being PAL60 compatible (tries to output as S-Video instead resulting in a red and black image when using RGB Scart leads; the problems with having a PAL system).

Funny story. This has an online battle mode. I popped the game in about 7 months ago and actually found a match pretty quickly.

Wow and I thought I had alot at 82.
Such an underrated system, lots of great games, shame that it seemed to get way too much hate considering how good a system it was.

That happens when something is not considered cool by the majority. Same thing happened to the GameCube (first: "LOL purple lunchbox!" -> now: the ultimate hardcore darling) and I bet a similar thing will happen with Wii U once we moved on to whatever comes next.

Do you want DecaSports? I bought it because I was asked to reference it in a written test for a job I applied for. Played it a little bit, but it's worse than Wii Sports so never bothered revisiting it.
If you literally just want as many Wii games as you can get I would be willing to sell for a low price.

Get Opoona, it's a really fun, cute sci-fi RPG that has a fun story and an interesting battle system that only uses the nunchuck.
Edit: Noticed you got it. Fantastic. Play it when you get a chance.
You might want to at least read the last few posts.

Heh, I just edited my comment because I didn't see it in that post upon my first glance.
Centipede Infestation is a surprisingly good re-imagining of Centipede. It can be had for $4.99 used. It's real fun is playing the game in multiplayer co-op. The story is really cheesy and you can tell it was a budget game but nevertheless it's really fun.
Also I heard Pirates Plundarr is decent. It has 4 player co-op.
