2009 can't come soon enough.

meh.

Europe also got Tingle's Rupee Land for the Ds which North America never got

 Yipee... On topic, most of this games are for early 2009, except Disaster which is a rumor.

Well Disaster has recieved a raiting in Austrailia suggesting to many that it may be out before the end of 08.

Awesome list. Can't wait for Arc Rise Fantasia.

Great thread.....looks like a lot of work.

@onimusha: Runaway - A Twist of Fate was only announced a few days ago for PC and Wii. As far as I know even PC screenshots are not yet available, so the Wii release of this game might be a year or so away. But: Runaway - The Dream of the Blue Turtle (a port of the 2nd game of the series) is scheduled to be released for Wii tomorrow in the German speaking area, so I think this is also a good candidate for your list (provided it's eventually released worldwide, it will certainly be released months before Twist of Fate).

Great thread,love it. See the Wii is getting excellent third party support compared to the GC and N64, and it only is getting better. just because it doesn't have big titles from previous generations doesn't mean the games are bad. Nintendo provides the big existing franchises imo, then everybody else gives us nice new ones. I'm not saying the Wii won't get existing franchises just not as much as the PS3 and 360. Personally I think the new titles are mostly promising.

omg, i just noticed how bright the future of the Wii seems to be!!

some games in the list seem to be really, really good efforts from 3d parties, which is awesome!! : )
