Atari isn’t listed and they’re publishing Ghostbusters.

From this list, here are the games that I plan on (Most likely) getting:
Toy Story Mania
Tiger Woods 10
Grand Slam Tennis
A Boy and His Blob
Wii Sports Resort
New Super Mario Brothers Wii
Metroid Other M
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Crystal Bearers
TMTN Smash UP
and here are some games that I might get (not sure yet)
Madden NFL 10 (I love the new look)
Star Wars Clone Wars Republic Heroes
Animal Kingdom Wildlife Expedition
WiiFit Plus (depends on how much the game alone costs)
Endless Oceans 2
Build-a-Bear Workshop (My daughters a Build-a-bear nut)
Drawn to Life the Next Chapter (my son loved the DS game)
Rabbids Go Home
Domino Rally (I really want a domino game, so we’ll see how this is)
Well, that’s about 20 games that I might be getting this coming year. Most of them won’t be day 1 releases, but eventually I hope to get these. Not too bad a list

@joshdad
add Tatsunoko vs. Capcom to your list.
Oh and is Virtua Tennis 09 out yet? I hear it’s the one to get (between it and Grand Slam Tennis).
June 8th, 2009 at 7:23 pm
Dude. A lot of good stuff from Nintendo alone. Where’s all the DSi stuff?
June 8th, 2009 at 8:20 pm
Only one game for me: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.
God, Ubisoft, No More Heros 2, Red Steel 2 and CwaCoM – it doesn’t get any better than that!

I’m not necessarily against T Vs. C, but honestly I’m not a huge fan of fighting games (in other words, I stink at them). I might some day pick it up used on Amazon, but I don’t think I’d spend a lot of money on a game just to be shown how bad I am at it.
I’ve looked into both Virtua Tennis 09 and Gland Slam, and I think I like Grand Slam better. I might hold off for a while though, and rent both of them, and see which one actually plays better.

TvC is pretty easy to pick up. I reccomend (if you can) trying Marvel vs Capcom 2. It’s a little harder to get into than TvC but if you find enjoyment in it, you’ll find even more in TvC. It’s a pretty accessible fighter.
oh and I’m also pumped for Smash-Up. Hopefully Zog, leatherhed, Krang, fugitoid, and many MANy others make it in.
anways. Can someone filter down this list so that it only includes games we give two shits about? (aka, Go Play Lumberjacks, Food Network: cook or be cooked, and My Baby 2 can all see themselves out…)

Don’t overlook need for speed nitro. I played that at E3 and it was actually really fun.

This is gonna be one busy holiday season.

They have a DS list too including DSi ware games:

The brand of fighting game that MvC and TvC are pretty easy to get into as compared to “real” fighting games. You can win simply by building up your meter and letting loose with super attacks.
It also helps that it’s 2d and not 3d (though that doesn’t help one iota in making me a better Guilty Gear player).

I don’t see Kid Icarus Wii on the list.
