Nothing to play on Wii, you say? Tell that to this guy.

IGN posted proof of the contrary this weekend with a feature analysis of the 20 best games available on Wii. Their list includes most of the usual suspects, but a few surprises made the cut, as well.

Here’s the complete list in no particular order:

- Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (Nintendo)
- Super Mario Galaxy (Nintendo)
- The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Nintendo)
- Okami (Capcom)
- Zack and Wiki: Quest for Barbaros’ Treasure (Capcom)
- Super Paper Mario (Nintendo)
- de Blob (THQ)
- Wii Fit (Nintendo)
- Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Nintendo)
- Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition (Capcom)
- Wario Land: Shake It! (Nintendo)
- SSX Blur (Electronic Arts)
- Scarface: The World is Yours (Vivendi)
- Trauma Center: New Blood (Atlus)
- Boom Blox (Electronic Arts)
- Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 (Electronic Arts)
- Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 (Konami)
- No More Heroes (Ubisoft)
- Mario Kart Wii (Nintendo)
- Excite Truck (Nintendo)

Surprisingly, only 9 of IGN’s top 20 are first-party titles, meaning more than half the system’s best games are third-party products. Fourteen of the games on the list are exclusive Wii releases.
