5 PS3 & 360 games @ $60 each - $300.

14 Wii games @ $50 each - $700 ($700 = my budget right now...  I buy games in Delaware - no sales tax )

Needed cash : $1000...to buy 360 and PS3

                        $210...to buy the 6 DS games I want (Yoshi's Island 2, Phoenix Wright, Dragon Quest IX, Sonic Rush Adventure, Dynasty Warriors DS, Ninja Gaiden)

How much stuff do you guys plan to buy this year?

I think the only game I am pretty sure I'll be picking up is Mario Strikers Charged so that I can finally get some online Wii action. I'm not a huge Madden fan but the online features are also pulling me towards that title.

Most of the games you've listed are also on my "interested in" list (except for DDR - to put it nicely, dancing isn't my thing).

Might pick up Guitar Hero Encore if I feel the complete tracklist is worth buying it for. Also keeping a close eye on Metroid Prime 3.

If I had a PS3 or 360 I'd be able to add more but alas I do not, so that's the current game plan for games with actual release dates.



Too many I want too... I think I am going to have to slow down purchases to about 1 a month and pick many of the ones I want after they fall in price... I am already upto 9 wii games (not counting wii sports) this year...

At least some can be purchased for my wife and daughter for Christmas, and those don't count toward my limit...



100% sure ill get Metroid prime 3. No matter how i get the money :)

Other games i'll try to get (all for wii):

-Batallion wars 2
-Fire emblem
-Super smash bros brawl
-Wii health
-Dragon quest swords
-Final fantasy CC
-No more heroes
-Zack and wiki
-Dewey's adventure
-Madden 08
-NBA Live 08
-Resident evil: UC
-Guitar hero 3
-the new Dragon ball z game
-the Gundam game

Thats 16 games. Around 800$, highly unlikely i buy them all, but i will be happy if i get atleast half of them.

By the way, im surprised to realize that im looking for way more 3rd party games than 1st party ones.

"Wii are legion, for Wii are many"

My top titles are Mario Galaxy, SSBB, Harvest Moon: Tree of Peace, No More Heros, RE:UC, and Disaster. If I find a bag of cash lying around I'll look into Dewy's Adventure, Nights, and Wii Music.



Around the Network

I usually set aside $3000 per year plus a $500 emergency fund (theft or acts of god) dedicated to gaming or gaming esque items (X-box live, MMORPGS, HD TV accessories ect,).

I've so far spent $1850

New titles I'm definatly going to get

Project Gotham 4, GTA 4, Sega Rally Revo (crosses fingers), Practical Intelligence Quotent 2, Blue Dragon, and Guitar Hero 80's version.

Bargin Bin finds/oldies

Doom 3, Dreamfall (origional), Yakuza, F-Zero GP Legend, Legend of Zelda Minish Cap, Age of Empires 3, Duke Nukem 3D Kill-a-ton Collection.

That should give me a couple hundred left to fart around with.



From august to December:

Too human
Blue dragon
Bioshock
Timeshift
Halo 3
DMC
Assasins creed
Army of two
Mass effect

In mexico, i will spend about 5 000 - 6 000 pesos (500 - 600 dls) more or less.
