This is infuriating; do they want to fail?

Little King's Story

Yea that is the ridiculous June release schedule for the Wii. Possibly the most stuffed and shortsighted schedule of seen since last November for all systems combined. What happened to April, where the only game worth mentioning was Excitebots? Empty January? No. Throw everything you have into a 3 week time span.

I bolded the future casualties. For Pete's sake, there are 2 Tennis games one week after the other.... Nice going guys. June is going to bring on an Anti-Wii Quarter with all the flops that'll be there.

Pray for a strong E3.

Sometimes companies like to cut each other out. If you bought an awesome tennis game in June why would you buy an awesome tennis game in July. Also a broad market doesn't apply the classic crunch. The classic gamer though still suffers.

Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

Well in Ghostbusters case, the release date was made for the specific reason for the Ghostbusters 25th anniversary.

It'll be interesting to watch for sure.. I know myself I'm only going to be buying The Conduit and Grand Slam Tennis out of that bunch.. Ghostbusters looks very promising though so I do intend on buying that at some stage along with House of the Dead: Overkill from earlier this year..

Wii's list is so epic, it makes the HD consoles look like fail.

I will probably end up buying most of those games. Of course, the June schedule is slightly different here in the UK.

I know Little King's Story deserves not to be a casualty. It's super, smashing, great!

Yes.

I don't find it infuriating.

I find it a nice change of pace. Usually the Summer months are dry as hell. Looks like developers are getting their act together and realize that not everything has to be released a few weeks before Christmas.
