5 Worst Nintendo Wii Games You'll Be Tricked into Buying

The Nintendo Wii is packed with so many game titles that it's hard to tell the good from the laughably bad. To avoid buying bad Wii games, we use our best judgment, but somehow we're still tricked into buying the worst Nintendo Wii games imaginable.

1. Soul Calibur Legends

The Soul Calibur gaming series has been epic since its first game and each new Soul Calibur title just got better and better. The great graphics and gameplay accomplished with the first Soul Calibur showed that the developers behind this series were bar none and you just couldn't wait to see what they've managed to accomplish with the Nintendo Wii. When you see the title Soul Calibur, you instantly think of a smash hit, and by smacking the word "Legends" at the end of the title, you expect nothing but legendary gameplay and not the worst game ever.

The developers of this Soul Calibur spin-off obviously sold their soul because the caliber of this game has dropped tremendously from its predecessors (this being the worst one yet). You thought this game would be legendary but were tricked into buying a bad Legends-based action game. Soul Calibur is the worst of the Soul Calibur series and will only turn all of your nostalgic Soul Calibur moments into your worst dreams manifested into reality.

2. Ninjabread Man

Any game with the words Ninja, Man, and Bread in the title should be an absolutely epic game. If you look at the cover of this Nintendo Wii game, you'll see a bad-ass gingerbread ninja brandishing two swords and surrounded by a swarm of bees - awesome! You hurry up and buy this seemingly bad-ass game only to discover that it's both bad and ass, but not in the way you expected.

Ninjabread Man is considered by most to be the worst Nintendo Wii game ever, and even though the premise and Wii box cover art look awesome, the gameplay is incredibly bad and difficult to control.

3. Balls of Fury

Balls of Fury is a game with Christopher Walken in it - nuff said. The words "balls", "fury", and obviously "of" is sure to make an awesome game, and when you see Christopher Walken dressed in Asian garb while smacking fire out of a Ping-Pong ball on the Wii cover, you can't help but reach in your pocket and pay for this great (bad) game immediately.

If you've seen the horribly bad movie that was Balls of Fury, you might have been tipped off that this is not a Nintendo Wii game that you want in your gaming collection, but this Nintendo Wii game takes a bad movie and makes the worst out of it. Bad graphics, bad gameplay, and the worst plot ever will definitely incite fury - possibly in your balls.

4. London Taxi: Rush Hour

"Awe snaps, Yo! There's a Crazy Taxi game for the Nintendo Wii!" When you saw this obvious Crazy Taxi sequel on the Nintendo Wii, you immediately grabbed one of the many dusty copies (hint) off the shelf of your local gaming store and rushed this Wii game home to start the Crazy Taxi fun (agony).

When you popped this game into your Nintendo Wii, you'll immediately discover that you'd been hood-winked into buying the worst Crazy Taxi rip-off in existence. This short, slow, and bad Crazy Taxi-like game is probably the worst Crazy Taxi spin-off ever and the bad gameplay and controls don't help either.

5. Game Party

Back in the days before everyone and their "mommas" starting ripping off Wii Sports, there was a game that started the trend, Game Party for the Nintendo Wii. Gamers that loved Wii Sports saw this game at their gaming store and couldn't help but buy this new Wii Sports-like game for their Nintendo Wii console.

This game seems to start off where Wii sports left off with games like basketball, table hockey, and darts, but what you didn't know was that Game Party was possibly the worst Wii Sports rip-off (and let down) to ever grace the Nintendo Wii. The game types of this bad Wii Sports rip-off are the worst to be assembled in a mini-game title (skill ball, ping cup, shuffle boards, wtf?) and this alleged "Game Party" plays more like a boring let-down.
