My good man Jack has listed the big ones, so let’s hear it: What Nintendo games are you most excited to play this holiday? Do tell.

I’m gonna have to decide between Call of Duty 5 and The Conduit – I don’t want to get two first person shooters but they both look so good! Other than those, I’m definitely getting Guitar Hero World Tour. And… I think that’s it. Might pick up De Blob sometime soon – not sure.

Animal Crossing, Kirby Super Star Ultra, Chrono Trigger, Sonic Unleashed, Sonic RPG for DS that i don’t feel like looking the name up..
as for games w/o release dates- Madworld, the Conduit, Disaster: Day of Crisis, No More Heroes 2

I was going to say The Conduit, but after having so much fun with Tomb Raider Anniversary, I’m excited for Underworld. I’m also looking forward to Chop till you drop. Hopefully they fix more things than they break.

I’m looking forward to quite a bit but sadly (or luckily, so says my wallet) most of them are hopefully coming out till next year.
If The Conduit gets a date for this year then I’m definitely going for it. I might get Animal Crossing and the added mic sweetens the deal for me. I’m also likely getting some DS games but there’s a whole bunch I want… Kirby Ultra is definitely one of them though. Guitar Hero 4 (or Rockband if it somehow ends up being better) might also make it.

My Japanese Coach (I know it’s not the holiday but still, Ubisoft bumped it back so much it might as well be!), uh… Madworld, The Conduit, Tales of Symphonia, Rabbids TV Party, Oneechanbara, and probably some DS games I forget.

i’m kinda still stuck on contra 4…. must.beat.normal.
also, exam studying ds. i hear it rools.

Pretty much the Conduit, for this year, maybe Madworld. I honestly haven’t bought a Wii game since Brawl, and besides the conduit, nothing really interests me now.
October 9th, 2008 at 12:10 pm
Wow I cannot believe so many people think that Conduit and Madworld are getting released this holiday. Those are being released in March 2009, not Holiday season. Sorry guys but that’s how it rolls.
October 9th, 2008 at 2:28 pm
I’m going for Tales of Symphonia 2, DBOrigins, maybe TombRaider Underworld (never I’ve had one Tomb Raider), Castlevania Order of Ecclesia since Harmony of Dissonance I’ve not bought one Castlevania.
October 9th, 2008 at 4:13 pm
Here’s hoping for Zelda!
There’s pretty pathetic offerings this year. There better be some surprises left out there or Nintendo is going to have an off year. I guess what I’m looking for is something with a story that keeps me interested and that my kids (4 and 6) can watch. The Conduit looks awesome and I’m sure it will be fun, but I can’t play that in front of them. I just finished Zelda Wind Waker with my kids and had a blast. My 4-year-old girl begged me to save the princess and kept asking about Link’s sister even after I saved her. Good times. Now I just bought VC version of Zelda: The Ocrina of Time and we’re having a lot of fun.
Tell me, is there something even remotely like what I want coming out this year?

By the way, another Pikmin would be awesome? Any news? One last question, where do you go to find out what’s in the pipes for WiiWare games? It seems like they just appear out of no where and there’s no ability to anticipate what might be coming? I’ve got money I want to spend, but don’t want to waste it if a better game is on the way.

@egag21:
Pikmin 3 is in the works, but sadly, it will not be released for this Holiday. Sorry.
(Shiggy even informed us that Pikmin 3 is in the works as of now.)
October 9th, 2008 at 10:09 pm
Wii: Mushroom Men, Deadly Creatures, CoD 5, Animal Crossing, Tales of Symphonia 2, and possibly Sonic Unleashed
DS: Chrono Trigger, Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, and Moon
October 10th, 2008 at 12:09 am
There are a few on Wii I’m definitely looking forward to, but none are really at the top of my list. Dead Space, Prince of Persia and Mirror’s Edge will be my holiday time-suckers.
October 12th, 2008 at 2:26 am
Chrono Trigger, MadWorld and the new CoD game all have my attention.
October 15th, 2008 at 10:57 am
have any of you heard about grand theft auto chinatown wars only on ds thats deffinately no.1
October 15th, 2008 at 7:51 pm
I already have de Blob – it’s awesome – so my list is:Wario Land,Guitar Hero,Animal Crossing,possibly Sonic Unleashed,Dragon/Wizardology,and probably something else I’m forgetting.
I tried the demo for Lock’s Quest and it looks cool,so I’ll probaably get that to.
