If the big games arent coming out until next year *or late next year* then why not save them for next year?

And remember we might find out something tomorrow, last year they decided to show smash behind closed doors to press.

thats the problem though. The big 3 are all coming out by the end of the year. But i sure hope your right about them showing stuff behind closed doors

I think people are complaining far too much about the conference. We are getting some killer games for the hardcore crowd, Metroid 3, Batallion Wars 2, Super Mario Galaxy, Smash Bros Brawl, Mario Strikers Charged, Resi Evil, at least you have Super Paper Mario and Trauma Center in the states, we have neither yet :(

Wii Fit is going to sell amazingly, I think it has the potential to be one of the biggest selling games of next year - no joke. The Wii Zapper doesnt look at good as last years prototype but the promo video looked awesome so I cant complain too much. Also confirmation of Mario Kart Wii so close to all the games coming out in the last half of this year - I sure feel happy to be a Nintendo gamer, why isnt everyone else?

[QUOTE="Bigbowser2"]Not sure if this has been posted already, couldnt find the topic anywhere and I was shocked that no-one else had posted about it so I might be missing something here? If this is old news then I apolagise.

IGN UK have updated their release date list and posted a message about it, linking to the release date list on their main Wii page, claiming their new list is "Your latest, most accurate UK release dates, fresh."

The list dates games like Super Mario Galaxy at June 1st -Less than a month *which would be a friday, the day games usually get released in the UK* Metroid Prime 3 on September 27th and Smash Bros Brawl on September 30th. Many more games are dated including Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers and Trauma Centre on July 26th. No sign of Super Paper Mario or Wii Music however.

Can anybody clarify this? I know release dates can be wrong but if they have just updated the list to include the *Latest and most accurate data* - surely they would have moved games like Mario Galaxy from incorrect release dates to TBA? 

The link to the release date list is here Click Here. *may need to click UK at the top of the page to bring up the right results.
Any other opinions on this? If this is true then we are truely in for an amazing half year and starting a lot sooner than we were expecting...cobrax80

I think PS3 will takeover the market now that Europe in under the belt.  My defence-stop reading my post and start reading the analyst reports in favor of PS3 (these guys are paid to do what they do unbiased).  WII is a good attempt but it's not meant to last.  I think particularly many people are ashamed to play the WII or they don't find it enjoyable.  Notice how WII is not doing so hot in countries besides USA and Japan.  Xbox 360 will produce good games but ultimately lose to PS3 because of one reason alone-Microsoft doesn't know how to cater to the casuals.  Microsoft isn't able to grasp the gaming demographics like sony.  360s master game is GeOW.  Sony's big game is gran turismo-something that appeals to alot of people not just the hardcore.  Even now kids are playing GT4 in their dorm rooms all over America.
