These are the moments when I'm ashamed to be part of the people who own a Wii...
Madden NFL 13
Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two
Battleship
LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes
The Amazing Spider-Man
Men In Black
The Last Story
Xenoblade Chronicles

Two movie games and Madden... >_>

I am shocked Madden topped the list considering how poorly it's sold the last couple years.

Otherwise this list is basically everything that's been announced for Wii in 2012.   There's nothing else to choose.  

Not surprised (saddened though) that TLS and Xeno are at the bottom, Wii is mostly a Dance machine now.  If they were announced Just Dance 4 and Zumba 3 would have easily topped this chart. 

I'm surprised The Last Story even made it on that list! I hope it sells well enough.


I'm more surprised it beat out Xenoblade.  Probably of the eight or so people surveyed who wanted those games, seven said both and one had imported Xeno.

North Americans have poor tastes.

No exclusives on the PS3 list at all ...


As a pretty big Sony fan I saw that too, then realized I couldn't name any for this year myself. 

All I could remember is Warhawk - other than that it's a bit sketchy. LittleBigPlanet Karting maybe?

E3 could have some big ones though, in particular God of War

I can´t believe this, does really nobody care about the new DMC
I know it has no release date yet but has Tomb Raider or MoH: Warfighter. I saw a new DMC trailer today an it looks freakin awesome.

Most people are turned off by the new dante. I'm really excited about it but that's because my only other experience with the series has been Devil May Cry IV (lulz).

Tomb Raider is a reboot to the franchise but at the same time, it was a long overdue reboot that looks to be actually comparable to the Uncharted series (of course then again, the same was said for the last Tomb Raider game that was released at retail).

I understand the rage about the new Dante at the beginning I was pissed of too but yesterday I´ve seen the trailer and it looked awesome, far better then DMC 4 which was a dissapointement after Dantes beginning.

Shame. A 3DS and Vita list wouldn't hurt.


The only game I plan on buying on that list is Halo 4.

sad to see bioshock so low. Hopefully if it ends up being brilliant, word of mouth will help sales.

Wish they made a PC list as well. Suprisingly this year might have more high profile PC exclusive releases than console exclusive releases, not that it would take many.
