I read the thing for the wii at E3 and hoped that they werent going to announce another kiddie game. Well not only did they announce a kiddie game but Shigeru Miyamoto was the one who was demonstrating it. Now i respect him as much as any nintendo fan but seriously? I thought he would be doing something on Zelda or Mario. After seeing that i have almost completely lost interest in the wii. I have seen all of these game previews and almost none of them are for hardcore gamers (except the one about the chainsaw guy i think its Madworld). All of these games that are geared torward little kids and casual gamers are starting to annoy me. I want Zelda, Metroid and Mario but what i get is Wii music and Animal crossing. I know that all of the games i want to see had games come out for that franchise about a year but an announcement or preview would be nice because the only reason i'm holding on to my wii is because of those game franchises.

They did announce that the Mario and Zelda teams were working, also, Miyamoto himself mentioned that they're working on a new Pikmin game.

Do some research first next time. Look around on the boards, search Google, go to the news sections of game sites, etc., because otherwise you'll look bad.

Just because they're working doesnt mean that a game is coming out anytime soon and the last pikmin game that came out was about 5 or 4 years ago

Yeah, I know. I'm also losing interest in the Wii. I'm currently playing Brawl and some older games.

I'm sure just as many people want Pikmin as they do Kid Icarus.

We only just had Mario, Metroid and Zelda within the last year and a bit, there definately won't be a new one of them around for a while. I'd be more focused on hoping they announce a new Starfox, Kirby, F-Zero etc. before expecting Mario et al.

Instead of Wii games to look forward to, it should be every wii game releasing in 2008

I'm not losing interest. There are plenty of games that are going to be coming out. It's not like the only games ever to be released on Wii are ones you recently heard about.

I want Zelda, Metroid and Mario. . . . I know that all of the games i want to see had games come out for that franchiseKoopalama

Then you have to see that your expectations aren't realistic. It's like seeing a movie today and hoping for the sequel to be out next month. It takes a long time to make a video game---years---especially of the quality that Nintendo games have.

Ugh, have you ever thought of this. Allmost every game on the wii has at least one creature die in some way, no matter how "kiddie" you say they are. In allmost every mario game you'll find mario smushing a brown mushrooms face into the ground till they're dead, nintendo just doesn't over exagerate it with tons of blood that isn't nessecary. You also probably didn't think of this. Every time in the system wars the system that allways wins is the one that has brought in the most casual gamers (PS2 was the latest example). Well this year they were showed a ton of games to attract more casual gamers because of that reason and another. What happens to most casual gamers once they have started playing on a system, just like all of us, THEY TURN INTO HARDCORE GAMERS. So since this year they got to get a ton of casual gamers in (which went great as planned) from the E3, guess what they'll do at next year's E3 for the old and new hardcore gamers.................... HARDCORE GAMES!!!!!!!!! Hopefully that brought some light into your eyes.

THEY AREN'T KIDDIE, they're just not over exagerating things like 360 allways does for crazy blood obsessed people that shouldn't even play video games anymore. Kirby is basicly a canable but to not make it dumb they don't give him razor sharp teeth with blood stains all over him.

Nope, if I added ALL the games comming in 2008 the list would be atleast two times bigger.... if not more.

I think a Pikmin game would work pretty well with Wii. Anyway, I was losing interest myself, and I think I have lost my interest in Nintendo, but I recently saw that House of the Dead: Overkill was announced for Wii. It is a classic House of the Dead game, with the feel and attitude of one of my favorite movies, Grindhouse: Planet Terror. My faith has been restored in third-party developers

From the release of Super Smash Brawl - March, to now - November 20 i think... all games that have come out pretty much sucked. Hopefully some games that are being released on September through December are going to be good. Those months are always when good wii games come out. But yes, no one likes kiddie games that are for the wii. hopefully Madworld will be great.:P Im a big Mario fan and I'm hoping that Nintendo will come out with another 3D platformer like super mario galaxy. Maybe Luigi's Mansion 2!??!:)

You're not the only one. But remember this: Mario, Zelda, Starfox, and Pikmin are in the works, and there are the few casual games for you to enjoy such as Mario Super Sluggers and Animal Crossing: City Folk.
