The launch of the Wii has been a great success, and the system is winning awards, and topping kids Chrismahanquanzika lists all over the world. Nintendo, and the third party software developers that have supported the Wii, have given us a lot this year…but I want more.

Originally, stronger wrist straps were on this list…but Nintendo has already solved that problem…so…without further adieu…here is my Wii Wishlist for 2007.

5) Fight Night - The boxing in Wii Sports is one of my favorite games on the system thus far. It makes me froth at the mouth at the idea of playing EA’s Fight Night series in a similar way, and with as much as EA seems to love the Wii…I’m sure we’ll see it soon.

4) Star Wars Wii Games - We’ve heard rumblings from LucasArts…and with the Wii selling out everywhere, and receiving praise from virtually everyone the studio behind the Star Wars games would be foolish not to produce a game (or two) for the new console.

I know everyone wants a game where they use the Wiimote as a lightsaber, and I’m all for that…but I’d also be interested in playing a Podracer game where the Wiimote and the Nunchuck are the left and right engines…

Ah, there is so much that can be done…

3) Power Glove Accessory - Yes, I know…I know…I’m an idiot. I don’t care. Back when “The Wizard” came out in the 80s, they pushed the Power Glove on the youth of America like it was going to control your NES games the way the Wiimote controls games now. It’s taken them almost 20 years to fulfill the promise of the Power Glove…and by golly, I want a Power Glove Accessory for the Wii that works like I was promised in my youth!!!

2) Wireless Nunchuck/Sensor bar - I love the fact that the Wiimote is wireless, but I am getting tired of the wire connecting the Nunchuck and the Wiimote getting in the way. The Nunchuck feels a little light anyway, and a wireless version with a battery in it would help weight it down a bit.

The sensor bar seems to be unnecessary wire as well. Hopefully we’ll have the option of buying a watch-battery powered sensor bar in the near future.

1) Online Multiplayer - Of all the “wants” in regards to the Wii, this one, I’m sure, is at the top of everyone’s list. I’m still puzzled as to why there are no online games with the launch of the system. Everything seems to be in place…so why can’t I play Call of Duty online? I hope this changes ASAP…because it’s really the only major thing (with the exception of graphics, of course) separating the Wii from the other next Gen consoles.
