Well, hooray for WSR but needs more Wii games.

Chozo Ghost · « **Reply #4401 on:** July 02, 2009, 02:15:13 PM »

What is next in the Nintendo pipeline after WSR?

KDR_11k · « **Reply #4402 on:** July 02, 2009, 02:27:50 PM »

No idea. Maybe some info on Dynamic Slash? They're still listing it for 2009 so they've got to have something presentable soon.

Want more Dynamo Slash info, too.

It's slashing, with dynamics. And Bloom Lit Babe.

I see the Nintendo hyping NSMBW until its launch... since it is obviously going to be a huge title

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #4405 on:** July 02, 2009, 02:38:20 PM »

So if a game isn't obviously huge, they pull its advertising budget? Freaking Japanese non-rape-game maker.

I'm sure Nintendo will hype Galaxy 2 more in an attempt to prove that people want 3D Mario more than 2D Mario.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #4407 on:** July 02, 2009, 02:58:56 PM »

NSMBW comes out this fall, Super Mario Galaxy 2 late next year. NSMBW is probably gonna be their big title this fall, so I see them doing a lot of hype for it.

Patchkid15 · « **Reply #4408 on:** July 02, 2009, 03:02:07 PM »

Galaxy 2 is not until 2010 though, so i see most hype going to NSMBW

They will want to hype NSMBW much more seeing how it is going to be getting a Holiday release

ShyGuy · « **Reply #4409 on:** July 02, 2009, 05:39:37 PM »

Is NSMBW the only Nintendo title for the fall and Christmas?

Patchkid15 · « **Reply #4410 on:** July 02, 2009, 06:13:47 PM »

It is probably their only big one... which is why i believe it will be receiving all the hype

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #4411 on:** July 02, 2009, 06:15:22 PM »

So E3 was for nothing AGAIN.

In Chinese astrology 2009 is the year of the Ox. But in Video Game Astrology it is the year of the Mario.

I thought you were going to make some comparisson to Nintendo being as slow as an ox in releasing games. I'd say they are stubborn ox for not bringing or talking about certain games recently released in Japan. Namely Tact of Magic.

Looks like there is alot of 2 player WSR action goin on in Japan

too bad they didn't include 2 player boxing (4 M+ needed)
I'm still holding out that there this will be Nintendos 1st DLC game with tennis and Boxing added to the Wii Shop in December

Mop it up · « **Reply #4416 on:** July 02, 2009, 11:05:50 PM »

When it comes to Wii Sports I don't see what the difference is between tennis and table tennis.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #4417 on:** July 02, 2009, 11:19:55 PM »

One is played on a table...

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #4418 on:** July 02, 2009, 11:24:49 PM »

You can go crazy with the spin techniques in Ping Pong, since the paddle is small and light. Tennis, not nearly as flexible, or split-second fast.

The difference in spin and quickness is emphasized for these video games.

Mop it up · « **Reply #4419 on:** July 02, 2009, 11:31:56 PM »

I guess that must be why they chose table tennis instead of tennis. Wii Motion Plus benefits table tennis a lot more than it does regular tennis if table tennis relies more on fancy spins.

While I'd love seeing the DLC come from Nintendo, I would imagine there just being a new Wii Sports ____ game with more activities.

But they need more casuals (w/ credit cards) to get on that WiiShop.
As soon as you buy one, you will find dozens more things you probably want to buy too.

Agreed, I just don't think they would do it. For whatever reason they don't seem to think like we do.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #4423 on:** July 03, 2009, 12:52:54 AM »

It would help if Nintendo advertised the Wii Shop Channel here, they have released many commercials in Japan advertising the service.

Mop it up · « **Reply #4424 on:** July 03, 2009, 01:14:17 AM »

I saw a commercial for Mario Kart DS the other day but I don't think I've ever seen a commercial for any WiiWare game.
Why do ancient games get marketing but not anything on the Shop Channel?

Poll

Will Nintendo pull off another 30 for 30 in Japan sales this year and, if so, how many times?
