 WHO'S MAKING GAMES FOR NINTENDO SYSTEMS? EVERYONE!    


Nintendo Unveils its Incredible Lineup of Games for the Holidays and Beyond    


   


REDMOND, Wash., Oct. 11, 2007 – Wii™ and Nintendo DS™ continue to appeal to every kind of consumer. As Nintendo's list of upcoming games demonstrates, Nintendo has a game or experience for everyone, no matter their taste, age or video game playing acumen. Wii games like Super Mario Galaxy™ anchor Nintendo's lineup for the holidays, as Wii adds games faster than any other system in this generation. For Nintendo DS, Flash Focus™: Vision Training in Minutes a Day and Master of Illusion™ again will make people think of video gaming in a whole new way.    


"Because of Wii and Nintendo DS momentum, third-party publishers are supporting our systems like never before," says George Harrison, Nintendo of America's senior vice president of marketing and corporate communications. "Their lineup of diverse games is testament to how we make the population of gamers a little bigger every day."    


Major publishers worldwide are making games for Wii and Nintendo DS. Shoppers will find dozens of options through the holiday shopping season and into 2008. By the end of 2007, the library of Wii games is expected to grow to 140, not counting nearly 200 downloadable Virtual Console™ titles, while the Nintendo DS library should be nearly 450. The following is a partial list of the upcoming games for Wii and Nintendo DS. Note that game titles and launch dates are subject to change.

(expletive). I haven't seen a list like that for Nintendo in a while.

Maybe I'm just severely uninformed.

Is it bad that besides game titles I've never heard of, there are Publishers I've never heard of ?

Umbrella Chronicles is missing from the list.  Either:

A)  Capcom wised up and decided it was an utterly stupid move to release the game on the same day as Mario Galaxy

or

B)  Even the marketing folks at Capcom forgot about the game because they're too busy pre-ordering Mario Galaxy
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

I know third parties shamelessly flood the shelves with movie/tv tie-ins, but seriously did DSI and Crave just wander around blockbuster for game ideas?

Spielberg get?
Carmine Red, Associate Editor

A glooming peace this morning with it brings;
The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd, and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Sega and her Mashiro.
