Portlett Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 My friend was asking me what big games were coming out in 2009 and to be honest I could only name a few - The Conduit, House Of The Dead Overkill, Sin And Punishment, Wii Sports Resort, punch out new Zelda etc. This appears pretty thin when compared to the likes of Street Fighter IV, Resi 5, Bioshock 2 etc.
Jonnas Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 I dunno. Does your friend have all the "Wii killer titles" from 2008? I would be more concerned in buying what's out, honestly, especially considering Nintendo now has a policy of not revealing any new games until close enough for launch. By the way, I like how you managed to remember more 2009 titles for the Wii than for the other consoles

Anyway, it's all subjective. The big hitters on Wii for me will be The Conduit, Little King's Story, HotD Overkill, MadWorld, Wii Sports: Resort, Sin and Punishment 2, Red Steel 2, Fragile (if it comes out), Fatal Frame IV, Tales of Symphonia 2, Deadly Creatures, Mikami + Suda 51's horror title, Muramasa, EA Tennis, Arc Rise Fantasia, Cursed Mountain and maybe Overlord Wii. Those are just the ones announced, and there 's probabl one or two I've missed out. We're obviously not going to see Zelda, No More Heroes 2, Final Fantasy CC or Tales of Ten in 2009.
Ganepark32 Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 ^ We probably won't see Final Fantasy CC released in 2009 but we'll definitely see more of it, starting with the new video in Echoes of Time in a week or so. But we'll be seeing more of it than just that. :wink:

Wait a sec, since when was this announced to be a Wii game?
Tellyn Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Wait a sec, since when was this announced to be a Wii game? http://n-europe.com/news.php?nid=12192 EA have announced that they are working with Suda51 (Goichi Suda) and Shinji Mikami on a horror/action title for release on Wii, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.
Zechs Merquise Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 IGN have a pretty good list - it actually includes COD6!!! http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/946/946778p1.html
Emasher Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Don't forget about Dynamic Slash and Cosmic Walker. We might not know that much about them, but we do know that they're two hardcore Wii titles that are being developed for the Wii for/by Nintendo. I think its safe to say we should keep out eyes on them. I'm looking forward to The Conduit, and the New Tales game, and I'll be getting Sin and Punishment 2 when it comes out most likely. But I'm sure there will be more revealed by E3. And Pikmen Wii will probably be out this year also. Aside from that, we might hear something about Zelda Wii and perhaps get a few more tidbits on EAD Tokyo's project. Red Steel 2 could also be good. And Don't forget about MadWorld.
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Come to think of it, what 1st party "Un-Wii whatever" game do we know that will be released this year? Pikmin 3 is a coin toss...
Portlett Posted January 23, 2009 Author Posted January 23, 2009 hmmm Im not sure whether we will see pikmin 3, if we do it will be just in time for christmas. I think theyre re-releasing pikmin 1 and 2 to get gamers that never had a cube to get into the series so even if it is ready they wont release it till those games come put I reckon.
D_prOdigy Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 I think Pikmin 3 might make it out as a Nintendo Xmas release. There'll rpobably pull the curtain back at E3. Anyway yeah, Pikmin 3, Dynamic Slash, Cosmic Walker... I said I'd missed a few

EchoDesiato Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 http://n-europe.com/news.php?nid=12192 Oh cool, I thought platforms hadn't been announced yet. Looks like I might get it twice, if the Wii and HD versions are different enough.
Ganepark32 Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 We're all forgetting Kid Icarus Wii. On a more serious note, everything everyone else has listed provides the Wii with many killer titles this year., although New Play Control: Metroid Prime should be added seeing as Japan are getting the game in a few weeks. And Sadness. I doubt many people still believe it's coming but I for one have my fingers firmly crossed for it this year as it's supposed to be out in the fall and we should be seeing something of it at either GDC or E3.
Emasher Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Come to think of it, what 1st party "Un-Wii whatever" game do we know that will be released this year? Pikmin 3 is a coin toss... Punch Out probably best fits that description.

Bizarre logic you have there!!

ShadowV7 Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Pretty much exactly like you, though add on Arc Rise, Fatal Frame and Maramusa. I really think I need a job.
S.C.G Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Well those are just the titles that really stand out for me, I can't see myself getting anything else on the list tbh, but shit... 13 games from that list plus maybe another 2... so thats 15 games to look forward to on the Wii in one year, thats a vast improvement on the recent(ish) lack of real quality retail software.
jammy2211 Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 It's got lots of games, not sure if there are any really huge epic awesome stand out games yet. Mad World could be just that though, has the potential no doubt. But yeah, lists have pretty much covered it.
Gizmo Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 For me, its Wii Sports and Sin and Punishment which I will almost certainly get. The Conduit and Mad World possibly also.
nekunando Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 There's quite a few on those lists that I'm interested in.. but let's not forget Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 ..and then there are likely to be several surprises that we haven't heard of yet
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 All this 'Pikmin 3', 'Pikmin 3'... There hasn't been even one jpeg to confirm such a fallacy. Remember a year or two prior to Brawl's release, we got about 4 pics of Mario and pikachu fighting... Lets just remember we have nothing of Pikmin 3. Don't set your ass up for disappointment. Nintendo won't deliver what YOU want.
