Nintendo took the gaming world by storm when they released the Wii back in 2006. Not only did the system provide much-needed innovation with its motion controls, but it also gave fans some of the best gaming experiences of that console generation.

Unfortunately, not every game released for the Wii is as fondly remembered as others. These games are better off forgotten and should be used as examples of what not to do when creating video games.

10 Deserve: Red Steel

Red Steel offered poor controls and bad graphics that made a sequel undesirable.

Red Steel was one of Nintendo's big launch titles when the Wii was released in 2006. Unfortunately, the game was a mixed bag, viewed as underwhelming to most. Thankfully its sequel, Red Steel 2 was a much superior game in every way. Unlike Red Steel, which looked dated and controlled poorly, Red Steel 2 offered gamers a unique experience, fully utilizing the improved motion controls of Wii Motion plus, as well as a much more interesting story. The Switch could use a few more first-person games in its library, and a return to the Red Steel franchise could be what gamers need as they wade through the sea of generic military shooters.

9 Don't: Dragon Quest Swords

Over the years and several console generations, the Dragon Quest franchise has been one of the most popular JRPGs ever. Consistently providing fans with unique and compelling stories, Dragons Quest has a long lineage of mostly excellent games.

Then there is Dragon Quest Swords. The game itself isn't terrible, but for a game sharing the Daron Quest moniker, more was understandably expected than the simple hack and slash adventure that was released.

8 Deserve: MadWorld

The Nintendo Wii, although a popular and commercial success, was dogged for catering towards a younger demographic and ignoring their older more "hardcore" fans.  Sega and Platinum Games' MadWorld helped disprove this notion the Wii had nothing to offer to older gamers. The title was perfect for those craving something edgier from Nintendo and was well received by the public. Oddly, a sequel hasn't been made for it yet, though MadWorld definitely deserves one.

7 Don't: Soulcalibur Legends

There are plenty of examples of fighting game franchises attempting to branch off into different genres unfortunately most of them fail. Like Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero or Street Fighter 2010: The Final Fight, Soulcalibur Legends was a bad idea from the start.

The tacked-on motion controls don't help what is a poorly executed cash in of the Soul Calibur name.

6 Deserve: The Last Story

Mistwalker has been responsible for some of the best JRPGs released since the company's formation in 2006, giving gamers classics such as Lost Odyssey, as well as the Wii's very own The Last Story. Thankfully, with the help of Operation Rainfall, western gamers were finally able to experience the Japan-exclusive more than a year after its initial release.

The Last Story was the last console RPG developed by Mistwalker. There is no time better than now for the studio to give fans a long-overdue sequel, or perhaps a brand new adventure.

5 Don't: Tatsunoko V.S. Capcom

It feels weird to say it, but Tatsunoko v.s. Capcom doesn't need a sequel. Not because the game wasn't good, it is arguably the best fighter on the Wii, but it's a tough sell for a sequel.

To the broader audience, the Tatsunoko characters aren't well-known, and adding new characters from that universe wouldn't be enough to justify a direct sequel, making this a title that could be better suited for a remaster.

4 Deserve: Trauma Center

Trauma Center series seems like a perfect fit for the Nintendo Switch, with the hybrid-consoles touch screen and motion controls, potentially giving gamers the best of what the 3ds and Wii versions of Trauma Center had all in a package.

3 Don't: The Conduit

The Conduit series isn't terrible when compared to some of the other generic shooters that exist on the market today, but that fact alone isn't enough to warrant a sequel.

Both games were decent enough however, neither did much to separate it from the pack.

2 Deserve: Battalion Wars

Over the years Nintendo has created some of gaming's most beloved franchises. Unfortunately for some of these games, Nintendo doesn't show as much love as they do for others. Nintendo's Wars series is one of these titles. Battalion Wars 2, which was released back in 2007, was the last console release the franchise has seen over a decade ago! Hopefully, it won't be too much longer before a new Wars game is released.

1 Don't: Wii Music

Neither critics nor fans seemed to like Wii Music very much. Not without reason as the game had some unforgivable flaws for the type of game it was attempting to be. The main culprits for this game's terrible reception were its controls and the catalog of music included. For a rhythm-based videogame to not only have terrible controls and subpar music was too much for Wii Music to overcome.
