No one has stronger legs than platform heroes, who can jump from rooftop to rooftop or even from cloud to cloud, and can often defeat enemies by jumping on their heads. There are a huge number of platform games for the Wii, many of which offer a unique take on the genre. Here are the top ten.

Top 10 Wii Games
Forgoing the traditional creature-with-legs platformer, "The Blob" settles for a rubbery round creature that happily bounces along the cityscapes, using its body as a brush to paint a monochromatic city. Despite its unconventional hero, the game follows the platforming tradition of asking players to make impossible leaps to inaccessible places. It turns out that bones aren't necessary after all.
This colorful and imaginative action-adventure game features a hero who can use paint and thinner to add or subtract from the scenery. You can paint in a previously missing drawer, or remove pieces of a wall with thinner to create a foothold. While the game's camera angles sometimes make it hard to see where you're jumping to, this is largely because the game refuses to limit where you can jump to. Flaws that come from too much ambition are always the most forgivable.
The Sonic games have never been much like other platformers. Sonic doesn't just walk to a platform and jump up, but instead runs at insane speeds through long roller-coaster-like paths, reaching platforms by shooting off ramps or running into spring-powered buttons. Sonic's heyday was as a 2D hero, but developer Team Sonic finally created a 3D Sonic game that matches the side scrollers of old for the fun of it. For me, this is not only the best 3D Sonic game, but the best of the entire series.
