| Nintendo is slipping. The Wii isn't doing as strongly as it should be. They're still relying too heavily on the same characters to bail them out. |

| Wait, why else would you get a Nintendo console if you're not in it for the first-party games? I'm just looking forward to Metroid Other M... I've been enveloped in that universe after discussing the time line. I guess I'm also still waiting for FRAGILE, but that's about it since I still think it'd be a miracle to pull a Zelda game this year, dunno why. |

| I think this year will be better for the Wii. With Fragile and Arc rise having an english release it is look up. On the other hand I have recently betrayed Wii and bought as PS2. You can see how much I think it is looking up |

| More Metroid and Zelda? How refreshing. There's only like dozens of games with those names on it. |

Final Fantasy VII You can buy the port on the PSP off of PSN. Zelda 2010 Fragile Arc Rise Fantasia Endless Ocean I can't think of one 360 title or PS3 title that interests me enough. So the PS3 will continue to be out of my possession, and the Xbox 360 will continue to sit in my living room, collecting dust and being useless. At least Nintendo actually makes games. How many games did Sony and Microsoft put out this past year? |

My friend has an xbox and I think he bought maybe one new game that was decent. Well, I'm referring to first party games. Nintendo themselves make Mario, Zelda, Fire Emblem. They don't have third parties like Ubisoft do it for them, How many first party MS or Sony games have we had? Not too many. As for Nintendo is relying on the same franchises, couldn't that be said for all the systems? After all, where would the 360 be without Halo or Mass Effect? Where would the PS3 be without FF or Uncharted? And how many Halos do we have? How many FFs? It's the same principle. All consoles, not just Nintendo, rely on popular franchises to help keep their system afloat and bring popularity. The fact that Nintendo is able to rehash the same characters over and over again and still get the games to sell well means that they're doing something right, either in the eyes of the parents who are buying the games for their kids, or the kids who are playing them. You and I may not like it, but it sells well, and why would Nintendo want to stop making a product that sells well? They are not a non-profit organization; they're a company looking for money just like every other company. |

| Don't try to pick at Microsoft and Sony because they don't make first-party games. They focus on developing their hardware and rely on third parties to sell the system, and there're nothing wrong with it since that's how this business works. Nintendo is just lucky that they've built a great reputation for themselves with the first-parties. Bottom line is, Nintendo is just a gaming company... lets see what Sony and Microsoft do... and I'm a Nintendo fanboy. =/ |

Sony and microsoft is doing their thing on the hardcore/casual HD gaming. And i support all 3 platforms (mainly Sony/Nintendo) |

| How can the Wii be slipping if it still out sold the PS3 and 360, I mean really. 2010 looks awesome on a few counts for me, my two favorite Wii games, No More Heroes and Super Mario Galaxy are getting sequels, Metroid looks awesome, Monster Hunter 3 has me excited, Epic Mickey, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. Looks like a good year, with Zelda coming in December or so. |
| My anime list |
| It amuses me to see how almost every gaming thread turns into an inevitable console war debate or something related to the such. I can't understand why people can't enjoy all 3 companies equally, like I do. In terms of next gen systems, I only have a Xbox 360 (mainly because most of my friends bought one and we play online all the time). But I can think of many games on all three systems that I'm interested in playing being released in 2010. Just to name ones of the top of my head: Mass Effect 2 Dragon Age: Awakening Resonance of Fate (End of Eternity) FFXIII Zelda 2010 (though I'm already going to assume this will be delayed) Bayonetta Bioshock 2 Dante's Inferno White Knight Chronicles God of War 3 Yakuza 3 Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Golden Sun DS (probably delayed as well). |

Bottom line is, Nintendo is just a gaming company... lets see what Sony and Microsoft do... and I'm a Nintendo fanboy. =/ I said they don't make many, not that they don't at all. I don't really see Sony and MS doing much "development". MS still suffers from RROD, and both of them are just ripping off of Nintendo with the motion sensor. I haven't seen much revolutionary from either system, except for maybe blu-ray or HD DVD. Nintendo IS a videogame company, which is why they have to be extra cautious. Thus they sell games they KNOW will sell. If MS and Sony's game industry fails they have other revenues they can continue with, where if Nintendo fails they end up with nothing. So they have to be very careful with what they release. Mario sells, Zelda sells. Thus they make them. There's nothing wrong with that. If you don't like it, don't buy Nintendo or seek out the third parties, as rare as those games may be. I find it hilarious that you can say that and consider yourself a nintendo fanboy where I don't even like the majority of Nintendo's franchises and still feel the need to defend them. It's not that I agree with them reusing the same franchises over and over, but if you look at it from an economical stand point, it makes sense. |

| Well that rumor is like over 2 years old its not gonna happen lets just face it. Best to buy the original VII on the PS store and be happy with that. |

PsychoDon904 said: ukonkivi said: Your last post, i was eating and i didnt feel like quoting....who are you responding to? Well then that's kind of weird that you basically voice the same opinion as I did in the first post I made in the thread several times, but in each case did so in a tone that seemed as if disagreeing with me. "Let's face it" is a phrase that doesn't have a tone of agreement with the person being directed towards. Even though saying that the rumors around a Final Fantasy VII have been (mostly) was made by me in my first post to the thread. In fact both your "let's face it statement" and the one about the Wii and Final Fantasy VII were probably best directed at the OP who made them, blt, not me. Or did you really mean "let's face it" in a affirming and agreeing way and I just didn't realize it? Because your posts are basically affirming the same things I've said in this thread. Albeit in a more aggressive and telling fashion. Generally people do not aggressively agree, so I've been awfully confused by your statements and choice of response and wording. |

The game might be licensed by Sony, thus SE would have to get permission to put it on a non-Sony system. SE is not owned by Sony. If that were the case, they couldn't develop games for the Wii or the Xbox 360. |

| ffvii ps3make is never going to happen. /discussion when was the last time there ever was a full blown final fantasy remake on one of the three big consoles? i'll answer that, never. |
Red_Comet said: ffvii ps3make is never going to happen. /discussion when was the last time there ever was a full blown final fantasy remake on one of the three big consoles? i'll answer that, never. What's your point? There have been remakes, so it's not like you can just throw it out since it's never been on a "big console" -- The DS is pretty fucking big FYI. The only reason why it wouldn't happen is cost, but really, if you put "Final Fantasy 7" on any game it will sell a million copies, this is a proven fact. Personally I don't give a shit, but there's always that small chance of it happening. Likely? Not at all. |

The DS is a handheld console, while the three former are just referred to as "consoles". I can't really see a FF7 remake in the future any time soon since SE doesn't seem to want to mess with the actual 7 game. So for now all we can expect are remakes and maybe the occasional spin off game like Crisis Core or Dirge of Cerberus. |

| Im waitin for Super Mario Galaxy 2, that looks pretty good You get to ride Yoshi's lol |
| In my opinion, Nintendo hasn't really had the best line up of games for me the past few years (for my tastes anyway), and was usually the system that stayed put away in it's box the most. In 2007 and 2008, XBOX 360 had the best. In 2009, Sony had the best. (again, for my personal tastes) However, now in 2010, I am actually looking more forward to the Wii line up than the others. Even still, since I play pretty much any kind of genre (even horse racing simulators, I play it all XD), I am able to pretty much find any game on any console that will interest me to some extent. My thoughts anyway. :) |

| 2010 looks like a good year for Wii and I hope some haters stop with their mindless hating soon. I agree that Nintendo has made plenty of mistakes, but I will never agree on people saying that there is no games for the Wii. I can find plenty of enjoyable games, it's just that it's only the AAA-titles (Mario, Zelda, Metroid) that is shown and loved by gamers. It's a shame, really. Anyway... Arc Rise Fantasia Endless Ocean 2 Epic Mickey Fragile Dreams Metroid: Other M Monster Hunter 3 Trauma Team Rune Factory: Frontier Sin & Punishment 2 Super Mario Galaxy 2 Super Monkey Ball: Step & Roll Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars Zelda: Wii Just to mention a few. And I have plenty of older titles that I also want. Can't have 'em all though. ;_; |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
Marow said: Endless Ocean 2 Fragile Dreams Metroid: Other M Monster Hunter 3 Trauma Team Super Mario Galaxy 2 Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars Zelda: Wii Definately looking forward to these ones.. And I'm hoping that a good Resident Evil game will be coming out soon for the Wii. Something like Umbrella Chronicles... |

Marow said: Arc Rise Fantasia Endless Ocean 2 Fragile Dream Zelda: Wii Muramasa Harvest Moon: Animal Parade is what I'm looking forward to. I haven't had a chance to play Mura, Rune Factory, or Harvest Moon yet. X_X It seems like only a few games, but that's enough to keep me going for a year plus. I'm also looking forward to Tales of Graces, but that has no release date as of yet. |
|
| As of right now the only Wii games coming out this year that I'm excited about are: Zelda 2010 (if it happens) Epic Mickey I would be about the new No More Heroes but considering that fact I still haven't beat the 1st one sadly, I'm not going to even worry about it. |
        |
| I want Epic Mickey so bad. You don't even know. |
Old avatar and sig retired for now. |
| I support all three consoles, though I don't touch the 360 as often as the Wii and PS3. I can't wait for Epic Mickey and the new Zelda. :) |
Marow said: Epic Mickey Monster Hunter 3 Super Mario Galaxy 2 Super Monkey Ball: Step & Roll Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars Zelda: Wii Hoping to find on one of the shops in Italy this year. :( |
| Metroid is usually fun, and Nintendo has been reusing characters forever. |
| My Nuts Jumble. |
| I just gotta say that Tatsunoko VS Capcom looks really good, and Metroid Other M with Ninja Team should be a surprise, and finally the hype of Zelda, which supposedly is going to take a huge turn and be focused more on mature audiences, so let's hope for the best! |
 |
| any thing as long as it's not as god awful as that Final Fantasy:CC that just came out. |
| It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die. |
| Wii 2010 does have a decent list actually this year: No More Heroes 2 Monster Hunter 3 Metroid other m (When I saw team ninja, I crapped myself.) Zelda wii 2010 (We'll see, but in my opinion it's probably going to go the twilight princess route and get delayed for sometime.) Last flight (get the motherfreakin vampires off the motherfreakin plane!) Sadness (It's a long story, but I still have hope.) |
| Something cool to be placed here in the near future. |
| No More heroes II Metroid Other M (Mainly because the prime games never got better than the 1st imo, and i wanna see what a 3rd party company can do with metroid) thats about it for me, but i don't own a wii or any other consoles. |
| Games I am looking forward to playing: Zombie Panic in Wonderland Fragile Arc Rise Fantasia The Calling Tales of Graces Fatal Frame 4 Epic Mickey Zelda Wii Tatsunoko VS Capcom No More Heroes 2 (not all are 2010 releases) |
