The Endless Ocean games on Wii!
Tumblr media
Endless Ocean 1 and 2 are an awesome duology of Wii games where you scuba dive, learn about fish, and collect treasure. The main gameplay loop consists of exploring vast underwater environments, find hidden treasure, and interact with fish to fill up a fish-dex. Playing it as a kid even encouraged me to try scuba diving!
They look fantastic too, it's like, still the PS2 era graphics, but it's on Wii so it is like, the peak of that. It has that charming low poly look I have seen a lot of people craving.
Tumblr media
Most of your time in the game is just exploring and taking in the environment, but there is always something to find. When you interact with fish, you fill up a fish-dex, and you can learn real world facts about them. If you play it, you'll have so many fish facts to share with people. (When they're accurate, the games are old)

They even have a story with pretty good human characters. The environments are fantastical, you visit ancient ruins, ship graveyards, even sunken castles, but the human characters means it always stays grounded and has some pathos.
Tumblr media
If you are into older games and you're looking for a shorter length game with low-fi graphics, gameplay that doesn't really resemble anything before or since, and to learn a bunch of cool fish facts, I can't recommend Endless Ocean enough. I think they might be kind of rare these days, but they work great, and are thematically appropriate, on Dolphin, and should work fine with a normal controller, especially Endless Ocean 2 as it had Classic Controller support.

Everyone needs to escape sometimes. Take a moment to relax and enjoy the peaceful beach; you will feel rejuvenated and refreshed, just like a new person! I still love things that you don’t even need to pay for. Going to the beach being around five of your friends and having a good time means so much more than going out and spending hundreds of dollars. At the beach, life is different.

Time doesn’t move from hour to hour but from mood to moment. We live by the currents, plan by the tides, and follow the sun. The ocean is sweeping in. The waves are cresting, and you’re wrapping up in a blanket on the beach with friends. It’s cold, but you’re warm. That ocean breeze is sweet, and you can’t take your eyes off the water. Now that’s one fine day that doesn’t have much to match it.

Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas) 🐢
Honestly throughout my scuba diving journey, I haven't seen green turtles while diving, only hawksbill until my most recent dive trip. I got to see a total of 3 green turtles underwater and it was cool experience:) A bonus nesting mother out of water as well. 4 green turtles on the trip:) Omnivorous when they are juveniles and move more into a herbivorous diet of seagrass and algae as adults.

SCUBUBLE & TRITODENT (Water/Steel)
They create water bubbles around their heads that allow them to live outside of water. The tip of their tails is made of sharp metal and can be detached to be used as a throwing spear, growing back in a mater of moments.
They are based on the Water Anole (Anolis Aquaticus), a type of anole found in Costa Rica that creates air bubbles to breathe underwater
