They've lost quite a few...

Let me be the first to say that Wii's 09 lineup is just as good as that of the HD consoles (exclusives atleast...).

I'm with trestres on 08 though. The absolute worst year of any console I've ever owned. 2 games worth buying this year. Yes, TWO. And they weren't even that great.

 

Wow, the worst year EVER?!? You clearly didn't own a N64 or Gamecube...

This year wasn't great by any standard, but not bad either. Brawl / Mario Kart / Symphonia (US) / Disaster (EU/JAP) / Shaun White (try it, it's fantastic) / de Blob / Monster Lab / PES 08 /  World of Goo / Okami / Mega Man 9 / Strong Bad series / LostWinds / Animal Crossing / Skate It / Mushroom Men

No, I didn't :P

Brawl and Kart (and de Blob, which I forgot about) were the only games that I felt were worth my money amongst all the high profile releases on DS, PC and Ps3.
