Topic: NWR Gamers Shopping Cart

[BlackNMild2k1]

Now that we've entered the last 6 months of the year, I was just wondering what, if anything, is in your virtual shopping cart of things you plan to buy.

With the assumption that a Black Wii is hitting US shores this Christmas along with NSMBW & WiiFit+, WSR coming this month, & numerous 3rd party games dropping before the year is over, what are your definite "Must Buys" list vs your  "Wait & See" list?


Off the top of my head, the games that I know I will buy before the year is over are

"Must-Buy"
- Wii Sports Resort already bought
- NSMB Wii
- WiiFit+
- Scribblenaughts
- FFCC: CB
- Red Steel 2 delayed till 2010

"Wait & See"
- DeadSpace: Extraction
- Resident Evil: Deadside Chronicles
- No More Heroes: DS
- Silent Hill: Shattered Memories


I know there are some games I'm not remembering right now, but after some others state what they are looking forward to, I'm sure I'll be able to update my list.

RS:2
WSR
NSMBW
Scribblenaughts
Metroid Prime Trilogy.

Hopefully we will get the Classic Controller Pro too.

Goes off to make list.

I'll probably get New Super Mario Brothers around release, it will depend on how well it works as a single-player game. Another one I'm likely to get is Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games.

There isn't much coming out which interests me so I'll probably spend the rest of the year tracking down the games I missed. I still haven't gotten ExciteBots and Punch-Out!!, not to mention quite a few games from the previous couple of years.

I kind of regret spending all my money on fireworks. I need a personal shopping trainer who can prevent me from buying too much.

Metroid Prime Trilogy
Dead Space: Extraction
Wii Motion + (the accessory, not tied into any game)

[KDR_11k]

Most likely:
The Conduit
Wii Sports Resort (though I'm becoming uncertain there)

Potentially:

Dementium

I tend to look mostly at nearby releases, most stuff gets decided when it's relevant.

It's a children's book and was published before they officially discovered her remains.  It doesn't appear anyone's written a newer book, yet.

That's more DS games than I thought there were. I did a quick scan of the GameStop release list, so there may be some that I'm missing. I have a serious problem.

[bustin98]

Sports Resort and Scribblenauts for sure. Its not on Wii, but Batman is calling my name something fierce. And I still haven't picked up Tiger Woods w/M+ but I want to. Metroid Trilogy, if I can get rid of the original Cube games and the Wii one. Dead Space is looking great, along with Red Steel 2.

I don't have a real list, just a list of stuff I want...

[Patchkid15]

New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Wii Sports Resort

Those are the two obvious ones.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
Maybe the Metroid Trilogy

[Ghisy]

Hmm, it turns out I forgot to list the DS games!

Must buy:
- Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
- Dragon Ball Z: Attack of the Saiyans
- The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks
- Dragon Quest IX: Protectors of the Sky

Watch list:
- Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
- Sands of Destruction

[UncleBob]

I MUST KNOW WHY THERE IS NOT MORE PROFESSOR LAYTON LOVE IN THIS THREAD!!!

[kraken613]

^I am ashamed to say I haven't even played the first one...

The Beatles: Rock Band and two extra Mics on 9-9-09!!!

[Mop it up]

I MUST KNOW WHY THERE IS NOT MORE PROFESSOR LAYTON LOVE IN THIS THREAD!!![/b]

I don't own a DS, otherwise I might.

[UncleBob]

It's worth buying, even without a DS.  It's that good.  Simply owning the game will improve the quality of your life.

[Ymeegod]

Professor Layton wasn't to bad until the near ending.  Don't want to give spoilers but I wanted the ablilty to guess who the villian was but they story hops off the rader and killed any chance of that.   Still the puzzles where great though I ended up banging my head quite a few times.

My list is similar to most but I didn't see:
Arc Rise Fantasia
Tales of Graces 3
Little King Story (I think it's being released on the 21st)

[KDR_11k]

Oh, yeah, Scribblenauts isn't too far away, right?

Prof Layton and Ace Attorney Investigations go on the list ofthey're coming out here soon too.

[BlackNMild2k1]

The 3rd B2G1 Free deal is coming up (Check the "Amazing Deals" threads) so it's time to knock a few items off the old shopping cart.

"Must-Buy"
- Wii Sports Resort already bought
- NSMB Wii - not out yet
- WiiFit+ - only $20, will buy separately
- Scribblenauts
- FFCC: CB - not out till 12/26/2009
- Red Steel 2 delayed till 2010

"Wait & See"
- DeadSpace: Extraction - maybe
- Resident Evil: Deadside Chronicles - not out yet
- No More Heroes: DS - not out yet
- Silent Hill: Shattered Memories - not out yet

The only other game I can think of is Metroid Prime Trilogy

So that makes 2 games but no 3rd game that I want that is available.
I'm looking for ideas here people.

Who else has knocked out most of their shopping cart?

[Killer_Man_Jaro]

Ones to buy:
- New Super Mario Bros. Wii
- A Boy And His Blob
- Metroid Prime Trilogy
- Little King's Story
- Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks
- Professor Layton and Pandora's Box

Ones to watch and ones to consider:
- Rabbids Go Home
- Muramasa: The Demon Blade
- Dead Space: Extraction
- Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games
- Scribblenauts

That's only the games released before the end of this year that are in my metaphorical shopping basket. This doesn't include the games scheduled for 2010, nor does it include some older games I haven't yet caught up with, nor does it include WiiWare.

I'm a poor student, though. My videogame budget has to be strict. Hopefully, I'll receive a few for Christmas.
