On Wii I would recommend: Okami, Metroid Prime Trilogyand Mario Galaxy.

I would also suggest you keep a look out for the next Zelda game which I think is planned to be released in late 2010.

Okami is very similar to the Zelda games in many ways and I highly recommend it as a Twilight Princess-style game. It is probably the game most like a Zelda game without actually being one.

Metroid Prime Trilogy is actually three full-length games combined (Metroid Prime 1 and 2 from the gamecube, and Metroid Prime 3). These games use a first-person perspective but retain much of the features of Zelda games. Wikipedia describes the Metroid series as:

'combining the platforming of Super Mario Bros. and the exploration aspect of The Legend of Zelda with a decidedly darker atmosphere.'

As a long-time fan of the Zelda series Metroid Prime Trilogy was a revelation. I now consider myself a die-hard Metroid fanatic.

If you like long games this should be right up your street.

Mario Galaxy is Zelda-ish insomuch as it is borrows many similar elements. There are lots of puzzles and interesting bosses. (Ok it's not nearly as Zelda-y as the other two but is a great game that should not be dismissed.)

There are other options besides Wii games too (while still using the Wii console).

Using the Wii it is possible to play Gamecube games. So I would recommend The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. (you will need a Gamecube controller and Memory card to play this game)

Wind Waker is, like all Zelda games, very similar to all other Zelda games. The main difference from Twilight Princess would be the setting which is a very large, island-rich sea. But all the crucial elements remain intact.

Virtual Console games can also be downloaded from the Wii Shop Channel. Of these I would recommend all the previous Zelda games available. For somebody transitioning from Twilight Princess I think a 3D game would be best. Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask are both excellent Nintendo 64 games available for download although they both represent quite a challenge compared to Twilight Princess (Especially Majora's Mask).

I wouldn't attempt Majora's Mask unless you consider Twilight Princess to almost embarrassesingly easy. Majora's Mask is, however one of my favourite Zelda games, and if you're up to the challenge it is entirely worth the effort. Ocarina of Time is truly excellent and a must-play for any Zelda fan.

Link to the Past (SNES) is older than those and really sets the precedent for all following Zelda games. I wouldn't recommend any earlier games (not because they are bad (because they're not) but because they are largely outclassed by Link to the Past.) Link to the Past uses a top-down perspective so is quite different but certainly not unpleasant.

There are also two Zelda games on Nintendo DS: Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks. I haven't played Spirit Tracks but I found Phantom Hourglass to be a good game for beginners. If you already have a DS then it is worth taking a look at those games.
