Forums - Nintendo - what's the Wii's big game(s) for the fall/holiday season?

Taken from another thread, I just had the list ready, added some more.


Unfortunately, if you are looking for 1st party games this year you will be disappointed by the small amount of new games getting released. Wii Fit+, WSR, Metroid Prime Trilogy (both GC games and the Wii game), NPC Pikmin 2 and New Super Mario Bros Wii.

Endless Ocean 2, SMG2, Metroid Other M, S&P2, Vitality Sensor are all confirmed for next year, as well as Monado: Beginning of the World (Monolith RPG).

Span Smasher and Line Attack Heroes have a TBA date, so they could be coming this year, other than that it's all third parties. Too bad there's only 1 core game from them this year, but next year should be awesome.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

@ Tres: Darkside Chronicles for 2010? I could see that happening.. If Capcom are smart that is.. I think Silent Hill, Dead Space and Cursed Mountain is plenty of horror action this year. Resident Evil on top of that would ensure all of those games took a sales hit including itself. Q1 Resident Evil.

Nah Capcom are stupid, we'll see it this year :P

Zelda and Mario are 2010 (possibly 2011,) Metroid is too...

so far, this year, we've got Punch Out... now what? I know we're getting SWMBWii, but, there NEEDS to be something bigger than that

You feel there needs to be something bigger than NSMB Wii and Wii Fit Plus?  Does such a game exist?  The only thing that could be bigger than these are Wii Fit and Wii Sports.

EDIT: There's also Wii Sports Resort and Mario & Sonic Winter Olympics.  This Christmas is going to be so so huge for Nintendo.
