The quarter does seem mostly devoid of first-party releases, but it should only pick up from there. Galaxy and Sin & Punishment in Q2, Metroid in Q3, Zelda, Wii Vitality, and the Retro Studios game in Q4, with some smaller releases sprinkled across all three of those.

That's a highly optimistic outlook, do you really think Mario, Zelda, Metroid and the Retro title will all be out in the same year with no delays? I would say we should realistically expect 2-3 of those games to be out this year.

Zelda (launch 06), Metroid (Fall 07) and Mario (Nov 07) were all out within 1 calandar year (with about 4 days to spare), so if Galaxy were to release between now and the end of June it wouldn't shock me to see all 3 out within the same year as they would need a really big game for next Christmas. As for the Retro Studios game, I have no clue what they are working on, so unless they announce something at E3 for this Holiday release you can forget that making it to market.
