7 Video Games From Popular Franchises You’ve Never Heard Of
5. Wii Chess
Everybody has played a game from the "Wii" series. Whether you were playing tennis against your grandma in Wii Sports, being fat-shamed in Wii Fit or rushing through all the games in Wii Play to get to Tanks.
With this series being the fourth most popular gaming franchise of all time, you think no Wii series game would go under the radar, but nope, obscure games from this run do exist.
Now, there are a few reasons that nobody has heard of Wii Chess. For a start it's just Chess, the game is popular no doubt but if you didn't like Chess, then Wii Chess had very little to offer you. Even if you were a Chess fanatic the fact that this game was only released in Europe and Japan and only released physically in Europe stopped numerous Chess fans from experiencing this.
The biggest problem with Wii Chess is that it did nothing to differentiate itself from the countless other video game versions of Chess.
No charm, just Chess, and at that point it’s clear as to why nobody remembers this game.
