TGS exhibition list light on Wii

This year's Tokyo Game Show doesn't look like it'll be as Wii-oriented as we would like. CESA, the organization that holds the show, has published a list of games to be exhibited at TGS, only eight of which are waggly. We're fairly sure that publishers wouldn't put previously unannounced games on a list before the show like this, so we assume that they're all holding back the new stuff. This looks like a list of show-floor playable games anyway, which usually doesn't include brand new games.

We're happy despite the relatively small list, because it contains stuff like No More Heroes that we're dying to hear gameplay impressions of. Here are all the Wii games on the list:

Nights: Journey of Dreams
Ghost Squad
Doraemon: Himitsu Doguo Kettei Sen
Simple Wii Vol. 1 THE Everybody's Kart Race
Simple Wii Vol. 2 THE Everybody's Bass Fishing Tournament
Dragon Ball Z Sparking! METEOR
No More Heroes
Project O

Well, this was kind of obvious. When the manufacturer itself makes no presence at the show, its platform is going to be underrepresented

But No More Heroes and NiGHTS 2 makes enough of a presence for me ;)
