2010 is looking to be the best year Wii has ever had. At the same time, I feel like Nintendo is releasing way too many first party games in 2010. I fear that there will be another huge drought of games similar to what occurred after the release of Brawl and Mario Kart Wii.

Hopefully, Nintendo has thought ahead and has something up their sleeves. What do you guys think?

Zelda will probably be released in 2011. Also, they have tons of untouched IP's like Star Fox, F-Zero, Kirby, etc. And if Nintendo continues with the five year lifespan, there could be a new console then.

Actually they are doing the same thing in 2009 that they did in early 2008 with Wii Sports Resort,Wii Fit Plus and New Super Mario Bros. Wii.

think of that... the possibility of a new nintendo console in a mere 2 years time.. it feels like time has gone so fast; like the wii has only just got started, and we'll soon be on the 2nd zelda, 2nd mario, and 2nd metroid.

you're right, i don't think we'll see a 3rd mario or zelda, but maybe they'll be another metroid towards the end of the console's lifespan.

i really don't want another f-zero or star fox. i couldn't care less. i'm really disillusioned with this constant demand from gamers of yearly sequels. surely if nintendo cared about those franchises anymore, don't you think we'd have them by now?

let's see... pikmin 3, zelda, metroid, mario... i think maybe only 3 of those will hit in 2010. surely they won't release all 4 in just one year?

Why are you thinking about 2011? I'm still looking at releases for the rest of this year, let alone 2010.

No, not at all

I don't see how you could ever come to that thought

You don't worry about what or what not is here but you worry about years to come?

No, no reason at all to do that

Let me break it to you like this, I doubt you own every game on the Wiii, I doubt you own every good game on the Wii, Alot of times, particularly in Q4 several good games will release at the same time and you cant get them all. If a point rolls around where there aren't alot of good games being produced, sort of the like the second half of 2008. You can pick up games that you missed during that time, you don't have always buy the newest games, a good game that was released in 2008 will be just as good in 2010, the bonus, its alot cheaper. At some point Nintendo will have to reload, everybody does, and during that time you catch up on old gems.

hmm, why not just focus on the games coming out in 2009, its not like 2011, hell not even 2010 is around the corner, and some of the games might get delayed too (zelda probably will) and there will always be tons and tons of fun games, you just have to look

Hopefully, things will be handled better in 2011 than in '09. Now that you've brought it up, I think it's the same thing Nintendo did in 07-08, where it focused a lot of it's properties on those years to get the system off the ground. While the purpose may not be the same, the aggressiveness of using the big guns seem to be. Hopefully, within a couple of more years, Nintendo will have more games in store, as well as third-party developers getting more comfortable in developing for the system. Right now, all we can do is just wait and see. Such fun. :P

the idea of a new console being so soon on the horizon really saddens me especially since I've considered adding another system to my collection so I can play all those games that aren't on wii. The idea of spending all that money to have it made obsolete so soon is a huge deterrent

so you only care about nintendo made titles?I think you arent noticing that 3rd party games have been increasing gradually in quantity into the system. I dont see that trend changing by 2011 unless something like a new wii comes up, in which case you dont have to worry seriously.Oh and prior to e3,nobody was complaining anymore, thanks to third party support. Check the forums, you have been out of touch.

I thought the same thing about a while back - TP, Metroid Prime 3, Galaxy, and Brawl all came out within about 14 months. And sure enough there was a long drought afterwords.

Third parties seem to being doing that this year. 2010 Nintendo and third parties are stepping up to the plate.
