So I know we've all discussed, myself included, how there doesn't seem to be a lot of "high quality" or AAA games for the Wii now or on a regular basis. But uh....I'm suddenly seeing that's not true. I have a good job and make good money and buy everything I want as far as games go (usually), but now there's suddenly too many for me too afford right away!

Resident Evil, Galaxy, Batallion Wars, Zack & Wiki, Medal of Honor, Soul Caliber Legends, Tomb Raider, DragonBall Z BT 3, The damn Zapper with Crossbow Training, Guitar Hero 3, Manhunt 2, Geometry Wars, Tony Hawk, Mario and Sonic, Rayman, Nitrobike, NiGHTS, and Godzilla.......all this crap is stuff that at least I want, (Not really crap :D ) and it's all THIS YEAR!! (that's 18 games btw)

I mean it's great but I can't afford that dammit lol. And Next year so far we have Brawl, No More Heroes, Final Fantasy, Endless Ocean, Sonic Riders....possibly....Sadness, Star Wars (!), Disaster....friggin MARIO KART!! It's kind of shocking really and I'm probably missing a few.

I guess we can't really complain about the lack of quality content anymore can we lol?

I agree, I've narrowed my choices down to these:

Mario & Sonic

SMG

SSBB

And possibly RR2. I may get some others, but that's all for now. It's so tough. ;_;

Aaaaand how many of those games are available today?

I've only got a few for my Wii so far. I'd be much happier if these games would came out instead of always being in the future.

With Wii games, i find it very helpful to wait for reviews. Its exciting to hope all those games will be good, but somehow i think your wallets wont get hit so hard once the games come out.

Hmm, well You don't need to buy them on the first day...
Hahaha like You can wait.
But yes, don't worry much about games aging on the wii, they'll stay fun!
That's part of Your reward for fighting off that industry imprinted mindset that only new games are worth playing, and that presentation or size is the only real improvement to games :)

For my list at least, I don't really see any of those potentially being bad except for maybe Tony Hawk and Godzilla or Rayman. But I don't really see Rayman being bad this time around. I'm really just basing that off of how disappointed I was in the first one.

So let's see...

Super Mario Galaxy

BWII

Mario & Sonic

I still have to get Corruption and Strikers Charged by the way...

Brawl

That's quite a few good games there to keep myself entertained but on top of that I'm picking up RE: Umbrella Chronciles with the Zapper and Link's Crossbow Training.

I am really excited for Zack & Wiki too.

Since you have a spot on your poll that says "Meh" I'm guessing you want to here from some of the pestimist.....

Yeah other than Galaxy and No More Hero's the Wii has nothing going for it as of the moment. Maybe this time next year there be more games that interest me..... come on SEGA, it's not too late to ditch that Tennis game and give us a new Panzer Dragoon:D Also I'm interested in seeing this new Franchise Nintendo is working on.

So.... this year kinda of disapointed but hey.... I've always been disapointed in year one for all of my consoles, I'm just one of those guys that get's sucked in by the hype and ends up buying Video Game consoles at launch ignoring my better judgement and my loved ones.

Every one Always forgets Trauma Center and Blast Works. Seriously both those games are Awesome(especially Trauma Center) but everyone forgets them. Blast works lets you create you're own shooter yet everyone forgets it (maybe our only chance for a 2d metroid game)

Lucky my work experience payed me (£70 for two weeks, that damn good for work experience), but even with that money and the money I already had, I'm gonna have to dip into my uni fund. Dammit Nintendo, why couldn't these games come out over the year rather than at the end of it.

Yah I was noticing that as well. My wallet is getting low as well.

And with all those games there is also Virtual Console, and with Christmas they may dish out a big game or two.

Meh... I'm still waiting for the good games to actually BE on the Wii, not in the future. We're just like those crazy cows in System Wars, saying "just wait... you'll see!" all the time. Out of your list, only Mario Galaxy, BWii, Zack and Wiki (MAYBE... still not sure, because of replayability/game length), GH3, and Manhunt 2 have the potential to be great games this year, while next year they all look great. The rest.... well, I guess we'll see.

You are correct though... after almost a year of barely any games, most of us will probably be doubling our collection (lol, mine's only 5 at the moment, not counting Wii Sports, so it'll be easy for me) by the end of the year.

I'm really hoping Zack and Wiki will be good, but like I said, after hearing something on IGN I'm worried about the length, and I'm also worried about replayability, since once you learn the puzzles, what's the point of playing again? Hopefully my worries are unfounded! (It comes out next week!!!)

I was surprised to find there are jsut as many games I'm anticipating on the Wii as the 360. And most of the games I'm anticipating for my 360 share the common elemt of guns, shoting, and heavy violence. While the Wii lineup is extremely varied, from platformers and RTS hybrids, to surgery simulation and rail shooters.

Yeah I've noticed since a few months ago when I started making my Wiish lists for the rest of the year. Oct 29th to the end of November is going to be insane, I'm not going to have enough time to play all the amazing titles XD. My Wii collection is going to surpass my SNES collection by Christmas.

Other than that, no thanks wii.

Some may find this strange but I'm more hyped for Okami Wii than anything else. See my PS2 died a few months ago and basically took all of the games with it. After bringing them to a software repair place they said that if any games didn't work aftetwards that meant they were dead beyond repair. Okami didn't work. I almost cried. In fact only about 5 games still work with my fairly new PS2 slim. Why I posted this I have no idea.

Uh actually only Guitar Hero, Tomb Raider, Manhunt, Sonic Riders, Star Wars, and Tony Hawk have ports out of that ENTIRE list. MoH's psp port is a different game in the technical department. So that's.... SIXgames out of 27! That's a damn good ratio and also no where in the same dimension of "half of those games are ports". It's all good :)

Of course not, and I'm not complaining. The point of the thread is because A) I got really excited and surprised at the same time and realized all of our complaining is now almost unfounded, and B) because it's going to cost me and many others a lot of money.
