Successors of the Wii continued to receive games part of series in the Wii series despite sometimes not bearing the "Wii" title, such as the [[Wii U]] with games such as Wii Party U and Wii Fit U and [[Nintendo Switch]] with [[Nintendo Switch Sports]] respectively, the "Wii" not being a part of the console's name not stopping a game from being counted as a part of the Wii series.

=Series description=
Despite every series counted as parts of the "Wii" series technically not being the same series, most of the games of can linked together via multiples factors apart of the name having Wii in the title; such as Miis being used as the playable characters, as well as the other NPCs seen in-game, and the artstyle of the series being somewhat simplistic.
 
In addition to those factor, some of the series in the Wii series were developed during the same time and make references to one another, such as the location [[Wuhu Island]] being in both the Wii Sports series and Wii Fit series or Sebastian Tute and Party Phil from the Wii Music game and Wii Party series respectively pretty obviously being part of the same species.
 
==Genre(s)==
Due to every series composing the Wii series being made of games with multiple genres, such as sports simulations for the Wii Sports series, fitness for the Wii Fit series, rhythm for the game Wii Music, party for the Wii Play and Wii Party series, karaoke for the game Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND, and so on; making it impossible to point a precise genre in which the Wii series could be placed and instead being a mix of genres.
 
==Gameplay==
There is no set gameplay throughout the series comprising the Wii series, as each series is set in vastly different genres.
 
The main similarities between the games is that the player plays as a Mii, the game mainly consist of other games inside of it, and the game is usually made with the intent to showcase something new.
 
==Artstyle==

The artstyle is somewhat simplistic, being made of vivid color and rough bold shapes, being choose to fit well with another factor linking these games together, an almost entirely Mii-based cast, both for the player's avatar and the background characters.
The '''''Wii'' series'''<ref>[https://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/wii/wiiparty/0/3/ Iwata Asks interview about ''Wii Party'', section "Making It Worthy of the Wii Series"]</ref> is a video game series comprised of accessible games developed for the [[Wii|the Nintendo console bearing the same name]], such as ''[[Wii Sports]]'', ''[[Wii Fit]]'', ''[[Wii Party]]'' and so on, as well as the follow-up released for those games, such as ''[[Wii Sports Resort]]'', ''[[Wii Fit Plus]]'' or ''[[Wii Party U]]''.


==Cast==
The ''Wii'' series is no longer a term used by Nintendo due to the retirement of the Wii console, with ''[[Nintendo Switch Sports]]'' being the first main game in the series to not have "Wii" in the title. Thus, most of the games that are parts of the series have since formed their own respective subseries, with some of them continuing to receive games on other consoles, hence sometimes the "Wii" name not being present in their title , such as ''[[Nintendo Switch Sports]]'' on the Nintendo Switch, that is a part of the [[Wii Sports (series)|''Wii Sports'' series]] instead of being part of the ''Wii'' series<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ16-1YIRAc</ref>, with only a few ''Wii'' series games not receiving sequels for various reason, like ''[[Wii Music]]''.
In almost every game in the Wii series, an almost entirely Mii-based cast is used, with both the player's avatar and NPCs being one, from a list of either player created and premade ones.


=List of games=
Despite having a large number of title that are confirmed to be part of the series, namely the titles that are part of the [[Wii Sports (series)|''Wii Sports'' series]], [[Wii Fit (series)|''Wii Fit'' series]] or [[Wii Party (series)|''Wii Party'' series]], as well as ''[[Wii Music]]'' ,some title are still debated as if they could be part of it due to relatively few consensus existing in order to tell apart a game that is a part of the series and a game that simply has the word "Wii" as the first part. Due to their titles having the word "Wii" either because of a marketing strategy or simply due to using the name of the console in the title various games like ''Wii Chess'' and ''[[Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND]]'', as well and applications like ''[[Wii no Ma]]'' and ''Wii U Panorama View'', are put in a grey area concerning their appurtenance as part of the series, most of them having few connection to the rest of the series.
As of February 2024, the '''Wii''' series is composed of 4 majors series, two one-of game, and a crossover with a karaoke service games series.  


With the first and last installment of the Wii Series being games from the [[Wii Sports (series)|Wii Sports series]], with [[Wii Sports]] released in 2006 and [[Nintendo Switch Sports]] released in 2022, Wii Sports is often considered to be the "main" series, being the largest series of the Wii series with 3 "main" entries and is often considered to be the "main series" of the series.  
A particular case of this naming convention is the [[Wii Play (series)|''Wii Play'' series]] who, could probably being considered as part of the ''Wii'' series in Europe and America yet isn't considered as such in Japan, with Wii Play and Wii Play Motion being named ''はじめてのWii'' (Hajimete no Wii), roughly translating to "Your First Step to Wii", and ''Wiiリモコンプラス バラエティ'' (Wii RemoCon Plus: Variety), translating to "Wii Remote Plus Variety" respectively, with the two games not even being part of a series in Japan, despite Wii Play Motion sharing multiple aspect with ''Wii Play'' and even having successors to mini-games present in said game, being [[Trigger Twist]] for [[Shooting Range]] and [[Pose Mii Plus]] for [[Pose Mii]].  


The 3 other series, being the [[Wii Play (series)|Wii Play series]], the [[Wii Party (series)|Wii Party series]], and the especially the [[Wii Fit (series)|Wii Fit series]], could however easily stand on their own with 2, 2, and 3 entries respectively.  
''Wii'' series games have also been used as a way to market Wii accessories, such as extra [[nwiki:Wii Remote|Wii Remote]]s, the [[nwiki:Wii Motion Plus|Wii Motion Plus]], and [[nwiki:Wii Balance Boards|Wii Balance Board]]s.


Along with these series, two one-of game used the "Wii" name in their title, being [[Wii Music]] and Wii Chess, the latter one being exclusive to Europe.
==Series description==
Despite the main games the ''Wii'' series game technically being in their own subseries, most of the games can be linked together via multiple factors besides the title, the primary connection between them being the uses of [[Mii]]s as the playable characters and most of the NPCs and the artstyle of the games being somewhat simplistic and similar between them.


Finally, the karaoke games series "karaoke JOYSOUND" utilizing the Japanese music streaming services JOYSOUND, had a game titled [[Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND]] released on the Wii U, setting this game as a part of the Wii series.
In addition to those factors, some of the ''Wii'' series were developed during the same time and make references to one another, such as the location [[Wuhu Island]] being in both the Wii Sports series and Wii Fit series or Sebastian Tute and Party Phil from the ''Wii Music'' game and ''Wii Party'' series respectively having similar designs.
Its sequel however, being [[Karaoke JOYSOUND Switch]], is not often considered to be part of the Wii series despite utilizing Miis just as much as Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND due to the game not having the word "Wii" in the title and due to the series Karaoke JOYSOUND not originally being part of the Wii series,the first game being [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karaoke_Joysound Karaoke JOYSOUND] on the Wii who did not utilize Miis in any way.


Due to the popularity of the series comprised in the Wii series, as well as simply being the name of their respective console, application such as Wii no Ma, Wii Panorama U and Wii Street U powered by Google used the Wii title while having very few links to the rest of the series, some not having Miis, some not having the typical artstyle of the Wii series and some not having both, leaving them in a grey area concerning their inclusion in this series.
===Genre(s)===
Due to most of the Wii games being in their own subseries made of a different genre: sports simulation for the ''Wii Sports'' series, fitness for the ''Wii Fit'' series, rhythm for the game ''Wii Music'', party for the ''Wii Party'' series, it is impossible to point to a precise genre in which the general concept of the ''Wii'' game could be placed, instead being a mix of multiple genres changing between games.


==Wii Sports series==
It is important to note however that most of the ''Wii'' games were created with the idea of being simple to play for both new and old time players.
''Main article : [[Wii Sports (series)]]''


The Wii Sports series is the largest and more well known series to be considered as a part of the Wii series, being composed of 3 main games, a remake, a compilation disc bundled with some Wiis, and a spin-off crossover with the Pilotwings series on the 3DS. Due to its size as well as having the first game of the series as a part of it, the Wii Sports series is very often considered to be the "main" part of the Wii series, even thought the other other series can easily stand on their own.  
===Gameplay===
There is no set gameplay shared by all of the games, as each subseries is set in vastly different genres.  


The main Wii Sports games are compilation of multiple minigames centered around sports, most of them having simplified rules and being entirely controlled via motion controls. The series used Miis as the player's avatar and opponent in every game until Nintendo Switch Sports which made the uses of [[Sportsmate]]s as the primary characters, with the Miis still being a side option.
The main similarities between the games is that the player plays as a Mii, the game mainly consists of other games inside of it, and the game is usually made with the intent to showcase something new.

==Wii Play==
''Main article : [[Wii Play (series)]]''
 
The Wii Play series is, similar to the Wii Sports series, composed of games that are themselves compilations of multiple minigames. However, unlike Wii Sports, most of them don't have a proper theme linking them together. The first game focused on pointing the Wii Remote whereas its sequel is focused on twisting it to serve as a showcase of the Wii Motion Plus accessories. The series uses Miis in almost every minigames. This series never made it past the Wii console and is only composed of 2 games; [[Wii Play]] and it's sequel [[Wii Play Motion]], both serving as showcases for the Wii Remote, a normal one being included with the first game and an a more advanced one that had a Wii Motion Plus build-it with the sequel.

''Main article : [[Wii Fit (series)]]''
 
The Wii Fit series is the second largest series in the Wii series, being composed of 3 main games : [[Wii Fit]], an expended version called [[Wii Fit Plus]], and a proper sequel called [[Wii Fit U]], as well as multiples Wii and Wii U channels available to be installed on the player's Wii once the channel's respective game counter part was launched, such as the [[Wii Fit Channel]], the [[Wii Fit Plus Channel]] and the [[Wii Fit U Quick Check]]. The Wii Fit games were sold as exercising games, with multiple yoga lessons and fitness exercise being available next to minigames with Miis taking place on multiple location, most famously the [[Wuhu Island]] who was at the time called Wii Fit Island. The majority of the games have to be played with the Wii Balance Board.

== Wii Music ==
==List of games==
As of March 2024, there exist three main subseries to the ''Wii'' series and a single game confirmed to be part of the series, with the [[Wii Play (series)|''Wii Play'' series]], various other games and some applications not being confirmed to be part of the series.


''Main article : [[Wii Music]]''
The first and last instalments in the ''Wii'' series being games from the [[Wii Sports (series)|''Wii Sports'' series]]: ''[[Wii Sports]]'' released in 2006 and ''[[Nintendo Switch Sports]]'' released in 2022.


Wii Music is a musical game released for the Wii focused primarily on arranging existing songs, most of which are in the public domain, by playing them as a Mii, with over 60 instruments being available to play by shaking the Wii Remote or pressing buttons.
Partially due to it being the first subseries, the Wii Sports series is often considered to be the "main" subseries, being the largest of them all as well, the rest of the series consisting of 2 other subseries, being the [[Wii Fit (series)|''Wii Fit'' series]] and the [[Wii Party (series)|''Wii Party'' series]] and a one-off game titled ''[[Wii Music]]'' was released as part of the series in 2008 that never received any sequel. Along with these series, the [[Wii Play (series)|''Wii Play'' series]] could also be considered as part of the series in America and Europe yet the two games are not part of the same series in Japan, with the very series itself not existing and the two games only being linked together via similarities ''Wii Play Motion'' having some throwback to ''Wii Play''.


{|class="wikitable table-yellow mw-collapsible" style="text-align:center;"
In addition to all of these, two games, being ''[[Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND]]'', who despite utilizing Miis and being a proper series could not be considered as a subseries of the ''Wii'' series due to the first game not being developed as such, and ''[[nwiki:Wii Chess|Wii Chess]]'' who is exclusive to Europe and only uses the "Wii" name due to the console it released on, are in a grey area concerning their inclusion in the ''Wii'' series.

== Wii Chess ==
In addition to the games cited above, applications such as ''[[Wii no Ma]]'', ''Wii Panorama U'' and ''Wii Street U powered by Google'' also used the Wii title while having very few links to the rest of the game having "Wii" in their name, with the closer of them all to the ''Wii'' series being '''Wii no Ma''' that utilized Miis and had the typical artstyle of the ''Wii'' series, with the other two applications not having both, leaving them in an even greyer area when compared to Wii no Ma, who itself isn't confirmed as part of the ''Wii'' series.

|Wii
|Wii Chess is a chess game developed by Nintendo released exclusively in Europe on January 18, 2008 for the Wii. While this game was exclusive to Europe, Japan later got it as a WiiWare title under the name "通信対局 ワールドチェス", Tsūshin Taikyoku: World Chess", roughly translating to "Communication Game: World Chess" and was not a part of the Wii series in that region. This game is rather odd as it does not feature Miis anywhere, not even as the save file or player's icon.
|-

==Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND==
The [[Pilotwings (series)|''Pilotwings'' series]] had a crossover with the ''Wii Sports'' series in the form of ''[[Pilotwings Resort]]'' that may or may not be considered as part of the ''Wii series'' due to taking place on the ''Wii Sports Resort'' iteration of Wuhu Island yet being a part of the ''Pilotwings'' series.


'''Karaoke Joysound (カラオケJOYSOUND)''' is the name of an online song library from the Japanese karaoke service provider Xing. A series of games that directly used this service as a part of a series also being called ''[[Karaoke JOYSOUND (series)|Karaoke JOYSOUND]]'' were released, serving as Karaoke game to be played at home.
Lastly, at least two games with ''Wii'' as the first word of their title were never released, with their relation to the Wii series being unknown due to these games never releasing, being ''Wii Qube'' and ''Wii Relax'': Two games announced in spring 2009 that would have used specialized accessories.


Amongst the game that are part this licensed Karaoke game series is '''[[Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND]]''', which is a karaoke game utilizing Miis singing along the player and an artsyle similar to other series in the Wii series.

Another game of the series called [[Karaoke Joysound Switch]] was later released on the Nintendo Switch, also using Miis into the game yet is not often considered to be part of the Wii series due to dropping the name of the Wii series, in a similar way as Nintendo Switch Sports, with the different being that the karaoke JOYSOUND series was not originally a part of the Wii series, the first game being [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karaoke_Joysound Karaoke JOYSOUND] on the Wii who did not utilize Miis in any way.

Due to the popularity of the Wii series, as well as being the name of the console in general, there are some games and applications that have very little to do with the rest of the series, only being linked to the Wii series by their name, leaving those games in a gray area concerning their inclusion in the Wii series.

The Wii series[1] is a video game series comprised of accessible games developed for the the Nintendo console bearing the same name, such as Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Wii Party and so on, as well as the follow-up released for those games, such as Wii Sports Resort, Wii Fit Plus or Wii Party U.

The Wii series is no longer a term used by Nintendo due to the retirement of the Wii console, with Nintendo Switch Sports being the first main game in the series to not have "Wii" in the title. Thus, most of the games that are parts of the series have since formed their own respective subseries, with some of them continuing to receive games on other consoles, hence sometimes the "Wii" name not being present in their title , such as Nintendo Switch Sports on the Nintendo Switch, that is a part of the Wii Sports series instead of being part of the Wii series[2], with only a few Wii series games not receiving sequels for various reason, like Wii Music.

Despite having a large number of title that are confirmed to be part of the series, namely the titles that are part of the Wii Sports series, Wii Fit series or Wii Party series, as well as Wii Music ,some title are still debated as if they could be part of it due to relatively few consensus existing in order to tell apart a game that is a part of the series and a game that simply has the word "Wii" as the first part. Due to their titles having the word "Wii" either because of a marketing strategy or simply due to using the name of the console in the title various games like Wii Chess and Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND, as well and applications like Wii no Ma and Wii U Panorama View, are put in a grey area concerning their appurtenance as part of the series, most of them having few connection to the rest of the series.

A particular case of this naming convention is the Wii Play series who, could probably being considered as part of the Wii series in Europe and America yet isn't considered as such in Japan, with Wii Play and Wii Play Motion being named はじめてのWii (Hajimete no Wii), roughly translating to "Your First Step to Wii", and Wiiリモコンプラス バラエティ (Wii RemoCon Plus: Variety), translating to "Wii Remote Plus Variety" respectively, with the two games not even being part of a series in Japan, despite Wii Play Motion sharing multiple aspect with Wii Play and even having successors to mini-games present in said game, being Trigger Twist for Shooting Range and Pose Mii Plus for Pose Mii.

Wii series games have also been used as a way to market Wii accessories, such as extra Wii Remotes, the Wii Motion Plus, and Wii Balance Boards.

Series description

Despite the main games the Wii series game technically being in their own subseries, most of the games can be linked together via multiple factors besides the title, the primary connection between them being the uses of Miis as the playable characters and most of the NPCs and the artstyle of the games being somewhat simplistic and similar between them.

In addition to those factors, some of the Wii series were developed during the same time and make references to one another, such as the location Wuhu Island being in both the Wii Sports series and Wii Fit series or Sebastian Tute and Party Phil from the Wii Music game and Wii Party series respectively having similar designs.

Genre(s)

Due to most of the Wii games being in their own subseries made of a different genre: sports simulation for the Wii Sports series, fitness for the Wii Fit series, rhythm for the game Wii Music, party for the Wii Party series, it is impossible to point to a precise genre in which the general concept of the Wii game could be placed, instead being a mix of multiple genres changing between games.

It is important to note however that most of the Wii games were created with the idea of being simple to play for both new and old time players.

Gameplay

There is no set gameplay shared by all of the games, as each subseries is set in vastly different genres.

The main similarities between the games is that the player plays as a Mii, the game mainly consists of other games inside of it, and the game is usually made with the intent to showcase something new.

Artstyle

WS WP WF Artstyle Montage.png
Example of 3 Wii games using the same artstyle, with from top left to bottom, Wii Sports, Wii Play and Wii Fit.

The artstyle of the Wii series is somewhat simplistic, being made of vivid color and rough bold shapes, being chosen to fit well with the fact that almost every character is a Mii.

Cast

In almost every game in a Wii series, an almost entirely Mii-based cast is used, with both the player's avatar and most NPCs being one, from a list of player created and premade ones.

List of games

As of March 2024, there exist three main subseries to the Wii series and a single game confirmed to be part of the series, with the Wii Play series, various other games and some applications not being confirmed to be part of the series.

The first and last instalments in the Wii series being games from the Wii Sports series: Wii Sports released in 2006 and Nintendo Switch Sports released in 2022.

Partially due to it being the first subseries, the Wii Sports series is often considered to be the "main" subseries, being the largest of them all as well, the rest of the series consisting of 2 other subseries, being the Wii Fit series and the Wii Party series and a one-off game titled Wii Music was released as part of the series in 2008 that never received any sequel. Along with these series, the Wii Play series could also be considered as part of the series in America and Europe yet the two games are not part of the same series in Japan, with the very series itself not existing and the two games only being linked together via similarities Wii Play Motion having some throwback to Wii Play.

In addition to all of these, two games, being Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND, who despite utilizing Miis and being a proper series could not be considered as a subseries of the Wii series due to the first game not being developed as such, and Wii Chess who is exclusive to Europe and only uses the "Wii" name due to the console it released on, are in a grey area concerning their inclusion in the Wii series.

In addition to the games cited above, applications such as Wii no Ma, Wii Panorama U and Wii Street U powered by Google also used the Wii title while having very few links to the rest of the game having "Wii" in their name, with the closer of them all to the Wii series being Wii no Ma that utilized Miis and had the typical artstyle of the Wii series, with the other two applications not having both, leaving them in an even greyer area when compared to Wii no Ma, who itself isn't confirmed as part of the Wii series.

The Pilotwings series had a crossover with the Wii Sports series in the form of Pilotwings Resort that may or may not be considered as part of the Wii series due to taking place on the Wii Sports Resort iteration of Wuhu Island yet being a part of the Pilotwings series.

Lastly, at least two games with Wii as the first word of their title were never released, with their relation to the Wii series being unknown due to these games never releasing, being Wii Qube and Wii Relax: Two games announced in spring 2009 that would have used specialized accessories.

Debatable series

Debatable games

Wii Chess is a chess game developed by Nintendo released exclusively in Europe on January 18, 2008 for the Wii. While this game was exclusive to Europe, Japan later got it as a WiiWare title under the name 通信対局 ワールドチェス, Tsūshin Taikyoku: World Chess, roughly translating to Communication Game: World Chess and was not a part of the Wii series in that region. This game is rather odd as it does not feature Miis anywhere, not even as the save file or player's icon.
