Another week and another double pack of co-op games. Both games are available exclusively for the Wii. First up is the highly, neigh, the insanely anticipated Super Smash Bros. Brawl. While the game traditionally has just been a beat-em-up, the new game adds an additional story mode which can be played through with a buddy. Most excellent.
Next up is Sega's House of the Dead 2 & 3 compilation. You'll face the endless onslaught of undead with a buddy in a traditional arcade style light gun shooter. Of course...instead of a light gun you'll be using the Wii Zapper, or other Wii-gunlike peripheral.
It's good to see some other systems finally getting some decent cooperative games. I know I'm on the fence about both games, but my Wii is tragically underused. It might be time to warm it up again. Does either game tickle your fancy?

Seriously though, we dialed the difficulty down and I gave him a Wavebird to use and we romped through the first few levels of the Sub-Space Emissary mode (the story mode). It's not the greatest co-op mode ever, but it's fun.
Watching my son beat both of my 30 year old friends with Princess Peach... TWICE... that was priceless.
