It is, but then again it's been a thin year on the ground for Wii titles from Nintendo anyway. Fortunately, and equally true for the year as a whole, it sees a strong 3rd party lineup. I'm well satisfied between NSMBWii, Spirit Tracks, TvC (or Phantasy Star 0, if it arrives in time), and TMNT.
EDIT:
I would like to reprint this comment by IGN Commenter trip1ex, who expresses my opinions quite neatly.
"Also yeah the podcast is getting old when half the time you just rip Nintendo. Quit beating the dead horse. We all know Nintendo is Nintendo. And most of us do what you do. Play games on other systems when the Wii's well runs dry.
Do you have to constantly bitch about them? IT seems like you could do something more productive on your podcast other then complain about Nintendo. .... unless, that is, you're doing it to save face with your co-workers on the other platforms. Then go ahead. We don't want you guys looking too wimpy.
But maybe instead you could quit pretending that games like Conduit or MoH:Heroes 2 are any good. That might satisfy your coworkers. I mean I don't think even your coworkers would have given higher scores to those games than to WiiSports Resort. Harry Potter and WSR getting the same score? Virtua Tennis beating out WSR by a 1/10 of a point? Really? Talk about paying off Olympic judges. I demand an investigation into these shenanigans. Even your coworkers know what the better game is there.
Guys time to think about another day job. MattC seems too preoccupied with accumulating electronics for his crib than to bother with playing Wii games. He just fantasizes about what he played 10 years ago on the the N64, doesn't like any new ideas from Nintendo and constantly whines about Nintendo or inflates his ego by teasing us readers, that he, MattC, knows of an upcoming game that will rock your world.
Can't wait for the next Harry Potter Wii game. Over and out."
