Forums - Gaming - How many games did you buy in a console's first year?

Trauma Center
Prince of Persia
Metroid Prime 3
MLB Power Pros
Super Paper Mario
Umbrella Chronicles
Harry Potter (Strictly for my GF to play.)
RE4
Mario Strikers Charged

I think i'm one or two light... oh well.

 That's 11... and i've had it only since like.... early March.  I'm not doing that bad. 


Once I actually get through the gaming list, I'll also pick up from this... (but next year, aside from what i get for X-mas)

in no order

Mario Galaxy,
Mario&Sonic at the Olympics,
MoH2,
BW2,
Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn
RRR2.
Wario Ware Smooth Moves
Zack & Wiki
Naruto: whatever whatever looks pretty neat.
Victorious Boxers: Revolution
Carnival Games


Also maybe Smackdown vs Raw 2008. But I think i'd rather have that for PS2. Kinda afriad they've botched the controls.

So... next year should have enough used and discounted games to get me through a few months. So many games. So little time.

Wow and that's not even counting released games... i've got to get gaming... i've got more games to buy!

If this is a bad year for number of quality releases on the Wii, it's going to be murder keeping up with a good year.



Id have to say about 10 Wii games since I got it in March, probably closer to 20 by Christmas.

I have had a 360 for a year as of last month and have 5 games by the time that came around.

I got a GC 2 years ago and probably bought about 20 games in the first year, got a lot of great games at budget prices.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

the first year the console was out, not the first year you owned it. You can only put down games that came out the console's first year.



N64 - SM64, Pilotwings

PS2 - Dynasty Warriors 2, Kessen

Wii - LoZ: Twilight PRincess, Super Mario Galaxy

PS3 - Resistance: FoM, Heavenly Sword, Warhawk

5 games in one year, and that's just for my two new consoles. I'm really buying games fast this gen.
