We will see whatever Retro has been doing since MP3 next cmas, 2 year dev time is what is what is expected for a game. I personally think they are doing kid ic. Ok, now with pikmin, I see the point that they would not squish them together. I actually remember hearing miyamoto saying something that made me think it would be a mid year release. Also, MP9 could come in July like MP8 did.... August is just my guess.
it could look more like this
Jan-Feb- Nothing 1st Party (but a few interesting 3rd party titles, like deadly creatures)
March-April- WiiSports Resort (Replaces Brawl)
May-June- Pikmin (Replaces MKWii)
July- August- MP9
Sept Oct- Kid Ic (same timeframe as retro release of MP3 i might add)
Late Oct-Nov- Zelda
I remember hearing that they were working on a new Zelda BEFORE TP was release, something to do with while they were putting the final touches on TP, they were in the planning stages of Zelda:Wii. Remember Zelda:TP was delayed almost a year just so they could launch it on the Wii, I believe the early work was being done during that time.
End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)
Wii- 72 million 3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases
360- 37 million Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak
PS3- 29 million Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut
