Man I am looking so forward to Metroid: other M and the new zelda game :p I'm also planning on buying new super mario bros wii when it comes out, as well as pokemon HG and SS (Not wii)

Anyone know of some other great games coming out for Wii/DS? Please let me know!

-- BTW I DO own 360/PS3, but I already know of a lot of games I'm planning to get. --

Three games isn't that great, especially when only one of them has a release date, one only has a single trailer and the other only has a single piece of concept art. That's pretty much the big Wii releases for 2009, 2010 and 2011. (Not counting Galaxy 2)

The only games I'm planning on getting are NSMBWii, Galaxy 2, Zelda Wii and a very big maybe on Monster Hunter Tri. I'm not a big fan of Metroid titles *curls into morph ball while holding flame shield*

and tell me why that matters to me or whoever is playing the game?
It does if you want them develop more games for the console. I mean, why else did it take so long for a new Sin and Punishment game? While NSMB got a sequel in a few years.

Also, go look up the sales for Monster Hunter Tri.
Protip: sales in Japan doesn't always correlate between sales in America. Otherwise, Carnival Games WOULDN'T have sold more than Metroid Prime 3

I personally think Mario games have stayed fairly fun over the years (with the exception of Super Mario Sunshine) and I think Nintendo's doing a good job with them.

Zelda however...I used to be a big fan. Ocarina of Time was very fun, Wind Waker was enjoyable but then when I got Twilight Princess it just didn't do anything for me. The story was good but...there was just something missing. This new one isn't sparking my interest much either.

All of Grasshoppers games sale like ****
Killer 7 Sold Like ****
No More Heroes sold like ****
No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle is getting made

Another non-wii example

Guilty Gear
Guilty Gear XX
Guilty Gear XX Slash
Guilty Gear XX Accent Core

All sold extremely poorly compared to King of Fighters and Street Fighter, not only do they continue to get made but they continued to be ported to other platforms, and have updates and was even licensed by Sony in recent days.

Now, regardless of that, the game still shouldn't care unless he's playing the games for another reason. Saying that great games don't sell on the Wii is not an argument for not buying it, as well into the 2010 we still see great games in the line up. If I play Katamari Damtichi I'm not going to stop and think, hey, this game didn't sell a Million, why am I playing this? This sucks. No, if I do that or have the opposite reaction to a game that is not a MMO (which relies on the community). Sales are really, really pointless, because they don't make the game any more or less fun. Because of a bad marketing campaign, Boy and His Blob is going to sell horribly, never the less, I find the game very fun. What should matter to the entertained is being entertained. Let the entertainer and producer worry about the sales.

Protip, sales are sales, money is money. A lot of games that did poor in the US sold well elsewhere and got a sequel made.

All the games u named are misleading b/c they all have a cult following so u know that they will sale at least a certain amount and thats why they keep getting made.

But i do agree that how well a game sells does not matter as long as u like it. i.e ico, psychonauts

I guess I just didn't like the story. FLUDD had to do everything for Mario too, except for the stages where you lost him due to a secret entrance, or whatever they're called. Also I didn't get why Yoshi died when he touched water...

This is completely my opinion though, I love Mario games, I just didn't particularly enjoy Sunshine though I did beat it.

I agree, I don't understand why Isle Delfino Yoshis were hydro intolerant. They even die if you leave them in shallow water.
