And the X-Men Legends games were on the Gamecube. Same exact gameplay.
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

For the Wii, I'd definitely recommend New Super Bros. Wii. If you can stomach the bad writing and unskippable cutscenes, Metroid: Other M plays pretty well (rent it first if you get the chance). Skyward Sword looks amazing, but I haven't played through most of it yet. I'm not much of a fan of Mario Kart Wii; I'd rather play Double Dash or pick up Mario kart 64 on the virtual console.
Other than Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, I'd definitely pick up Pikmin 2 if you get the chance. There's no time limit, so you can take a day or two to build up your forces or just wander around whenever you feel like without fear of game over. Both multiplayer modes (PvP capture the flag and co-op challenges) are a lot of fun, though they can be frustrating when there's a skill gap between players.
Custom Robo is like Bomberman with missiles and a jetpack. It's quite fast-paced, and there are many, many viable mech builds depending on your playstyle. I haven't played much of the multiplayer, but the single-player campaign has some challenging battles and lasts a fair few hours. Half the fun is losing a match, learning from your mistakes, and customizing your robot for the challenge at hand.
Sonic Adventure 2 is one of my favourite games for the Gamecube, but from your stated preferences I don't think you'd like it. I also had fun with Sonic Heroes. Sonic Adventure DX wasn't that great, but the feel of it was closer to the Genesis games than the other two.
I've occasionally been working my way through Yugioh: The Falsebound Kingdom. There are no card games. On the main map, you command your characters and upgrade buildings in real time. When a battle occurs, you take control of a team of up to three monsters in a turn-based battle. However, it's a really tough game. The mission I got stuck on in Kaiba's campaign has you attacked by something like nine opponents so fast that you can't spam the more money cheat fast enough to heal your teams, and one of your best defensive commanders is missing and/or brainwashed.

Get yourself Oboro Muramasa, best game to come out for the wii.
No More Heroes is hilarious and awesome, both 1 and 2(although 1 less so).
Monster Hunter Tri is apparently a great series but I could never get into it.
Megaman 9 and 10 are absolutely fantastic wii ware games and should last you a while depending on how good you are at games/how much time you want to put into them(some of the challenges are crazy).
Castlevania: Rebirth is another good wiiware game.
Crystal Chronicles for the gamecube is one of my favourite games ever, but the requirements for playing multiplayer(which is a lot of fun) are so annoying that it might not be worth it nowadays.
Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition is a great game if you haven't played it too.
