GameXplain: "Watch us play with Pikachu and the gang for 40-minutes in PokePark 2: Wonders Beyond for the Nintendo Wii!"
DHGF: So that’s what “What’s Worth Keeping” will be all about. It’ll be about pairing down my collection with the help of you the readers. You’ll let me know what I should keep, what I should dump, and sometimes even suggest games I might find worthy of being part of my twenty games per console set. In taking this journey with me, you will not only get to know my tastes and preferences better, but hopefully your own as well. Every two weeks, we’ll look at a console and see if we can not only keep my number of games down, but also help you the readers decide if your collection needs pairing down as well. With that in mind it’s time to start this version of the column with the same system we started with two years ago – The Nintendo Wii.

Some interesting choices you got there, but I totally agree with Fire Emblem, Sonic Colors, and Tales of Symphonia.
I would add the following:
MySims Agents
deBlob
Raving Rabbids Go Home
Kirby's Epic Yarn (I am pretty sure many people overlooked this one.)
I still play Fire Emblem, it is fantastic!
I bought MadWorld, but I didn't think it was very fun, so I sold it.
"Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World" has the best monster capture mechanic in any RPG I ever played (except for Pokémon) and it's one of the only two Tales games that I finished (the other one is the first Tales of Symphonia).
Someday I will buy Sonic and the Black Knight and Sonic Colors. Someday...
I was disappointed with Madworld, but I only spent 3quid on it. I feel I have missed out on Metroid Other M so I will have to pick that up soon.
VGW: On the surface, PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond doesn’t seem to have much going for it. As the sequel to the decidedly lackluster PokéPark Wii: Pikachu’s Adventure, it’s firmly cemented in the minds of Pokémon fans as being an inferior distraction meant for only the most gullible of children. But with all three starters from Pokémon Black/White joining Pikachu as playable characters with different abilities, an improved story and direction, and a lively, believable world, PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond turns out to be the perfect breather for fans looking for a break from catching ‘em.
My kids would love it...if I had kids.
my favorite pokemon game is pokemon snap...don't hate.
This is not pokemon. What I don't understand is why they are wasting time making games like this when they have an already hugely successful portable turn-based RPG franchise they could be putting all their creative effort into?
I didn't know the 1st one warranted a sequel. The 1st PP game was just a bunch of mini games. I heard this one is more about adventure and exploration. However, the size of this game is smaller than the 1st, so there isn't too much to explore and there are still annoying mini games. I'd suggest getting this for someone very young (say 10 yrs old or younger)
