So, people complain when there's no good 3rd party games, and then avoid the good 3rd party games. :|

The only game from that list that I'm not interested in is Dragon Quest Swords. And I might get Spore on the 360 depending on which version is better (don't have a good enough computer to get it for the PC).

Can't wait for Red Steel 2 actually. And you forgot Disaster: Day of Crisis, its confirmed to release this year.-bigger_boss-

xD..i will buy a WII just to look at metal gear solid kirby :P..!!!!

BTW WII already owns japan and when Monster Hunter III And Dragon Quest Hit japan it will be all over for Sony and MS

That is all.

Thank you.

if i only owned a wii, the list would seem a lot better than it actually is.

right now, the only games i'd give a damn about are brawl and TOS 2.

i checked..i think it sold 400-500k in japan..BUt i think Monster Hunter 3 will have HUGE impact ONLY if WII's online capalbilities dont dissapoint..

I want:

No More Heroes
Oboro Muramasa Youtouden
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Fatal Frame IV
Mario Kart Wii
Tales of Symphonia 2
Okami (Never bought it for my PS2)
Spore

King's Story, Fragile, Animal Crossing, and Disaster have my interest.

I wouldn't be surprised if we hear about an F-Zero, Starfox, Zack & Wiki 2, Pikmin 3, or something along those lines next year.

There are a number of under the radar games I look forward to, like the Samurai Shodown Anthology.

Should be a great year for the Wii...

[QUOTE="Supafly1"]What's so hardcore about these games? Please tell me.SyluxElite

See, even you can't tell if they are casual or hardcore. It's because there is no such thing. Everyone can play any game, given that they are in the correct age. If it's just a complicated game then they can learn it and still master the game.

I guess you can say that the Japanese don't want cheap spin-offs.

After No More Heroes comes out, maybe I can try to get together a "Buy Oboro Muramasa Campaign"

:P

*sigh*

It's because of this attitude that 3rd parties don't do so well on Nintendo consoles.

That pic is from the MH3 trailer.
