No games? The latest word from Nintendo on upcoming releases hopes to change your mind on that. Like sports? Action? Quirky fun? Mini-games? Well, on the last one, you were already covered, but now, you've got
extra cheese. Nintendo's let fly with their current Wii and
DS release schedules, and while the dates on some titles are a little vague (or have already passed, as with the first few), the full list includes a bevy of new and previously-undated games.
There are even a few amusing observations to be made, such as
Nitro Bike's March release, which actually came, uh,
this week, and the dreadful fate of
Worms: A Space Oddity, which is certain to disappear in the wake of
Super Smash Bros. Brawl chaos. What's
not there is also a little disappointing:
Samba de Amigo is missing from the list, but that doesn't mean we won't see it before the fall. We can still hope, but with everything we've got to look forward to, we can wait a little longer for quality time with the
maracas-monkey. But we could be wrong -- Sega releases are not showing up at all, just as last time,
Capcom was missing from Nintendo's updated lists. It seems likely that we're still looking at fall for
Civilization Revolution, as well, since it's not on the list. So there's even more upcoming goodness after we're done with
Okami,
Brawl,
No More Heroes,
Opoona, and more.
The boxart for the Wii version of Samba de Amigo has now been revealed in tiny form on Gamestop's site. It is, as far as we know, the first game to feature the new red Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Pay-to-Play logo, which was first shown at GDC this year.
