Mario Party 5 and 8: These two games were my first two Mario Parties, and though I do believe they are on the lower end of the Mario Party table, I still hold quite a lot of fond memories of them -- especially Mario Party 5. The sheer variety in that game is amazing. Super Duels! Bonus Modes! A cool Solo Mode!
Mario Kart Wii: Though Double Dash was my first Mario Kart, MKWii is the one I know the best (even if I have yet to beat any of the cups on anything higher than 50cc). I can't tell you how many times I've hung about on the Online mode; that stuff was amazing.
Super Mario Galaxy 2: This is the first 3D Mario I really remember playing. I mean, I remember dabbing into a bit of SMG1 beforehand, but Galaxy 2 was really when I started to really 'get' why 3D Marios are so spectacular. The Stars, the Power-ups, the galaxies! It's amazing!
Super Smash Bros. Brawl: Brawl is the Smash I remember the most. I've played this so much with my brother, goofed around with all the playable characters, almost beat the entire Story Mode -- damn, this game just has so much!
Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep: This was the point where I finally really got invested into Kingdom Hearts, and it did so in a really amazing way. The Command Deck was really fun to play around with, the Command Board sated my lust for Mario Parties, and the whole battle system was pretty amazing. I had no idea where the heck the plot was going, but damn if it wasn't fun anyway.
Portal 2: I suck at puzzles, I'll admit. But the plot and the humorous characters are what really got me into this. The dynamics with Wheatley and GLaDOS are really something to behold.
LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga (Wii): My second LEGO game after the first LEGO Star Wars. The sheer amount of content and characters really wowed me, even if the game got me into a seething hatred for LEGO Vehicle levels. I swear, those are the worst!
Pokemon SoulSilver: This was the first Pokemon I ever beat. Two regions, the PokeGear, the best touch screen use in the Gen 4 and 5 games, and its easy difficulty makes it the perfect start for any Pokemon newcomer. Although I'd never return to it after being spoiled by Gen 6 and 7, I still have fond memories of it.
