Title: Nintendo's Wii titles for 2007
Post by: NWR_pap64 on November 25, 2006, 05:08:23 AM
A few weeks back there was a thread where some were worried that there was nothing to look forward to in 2007 because the spring release lineup consisted on only 3-4 Nintendo titles. Go Nintendo has made a list of all the first party games that are scheduled to be released in 2007.

* Animal Crossing
* Battalion Wars II
* Big Brain Academy
* Disaster: Day of Crisis
* DK Kongo Blast (Former GC title)
* Eyeshield 21 (Japan only)
* Excite Truck (Already released in the US)
* Fire Emblem: Goddess of Dawn
* Forever Blue
* Kirby
* Mario Party 8
* Mario Strikers Charged
* Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
* Project H.A.M.M.E.R.
* Super Mario Galaxy
* Super Paper Mario (Former GC title)
* Super Smash Bros. Brawl
* Wii Health Pack (S_B called this one :p )
* Wii Music

Pretty damn good if you as me. Hopefully, Nintendo evens the releases of these games, instead of releasing them all on Fall and forgets about the rest of spring and summer.

NOTE: These are currently Japan, so some games may be released much later or delayed in both countries.

Im sure Nintendo will space these out since they love doing that especially in America since it will probably be much easier for Nintendo to get healthy 3rd party support this time arround and then make some surprise announcements with an onslaught of games in the holiday 07 season.

You're missing Man Icarus and Suburban Yeti.

If they could somehow get BWII, Mario, and Metroid out this year in the US, I would be pleased.

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

WiiMusic intrigues the hell out of Mii! If they add more sophistication to Wiidrums, such as adding more drums to choose from and being able to record and edit on the fly....maybe add in a multiplayer showdown or jam session and you got a winner on your hands.

Also, WiiHealthPack intrigues me as well. If Nintendo can make exercise fun, then they got it made.

Oh yeah! I forgot all about the drumming. If I am not mistaken, both the E3 trailer and the launch press release trailer show at least one gamer drumming in the air. I wonder if drumming is part of Wii music (as neat as the conductor game is, I doubt they would make that the sole game in the package).

There were actually two people drumming in the air together. So ya........killer app?

Wii Health Pack was announced quite a while back

Drumming.  Wow, wii music might actually be one of my most anticipated 2007 games =D

Has Kirby actually been announced?  And I know Animal Crossing has been mentioned, but I don't remember Nintendo ever committing to a 2007 release.  Not to be annoying, I just want to avoid accidentally disappointing anybody.

Link to the newstory

Actually, funny you should mention that. The news site updated saying that Animal Crossing is still undecided for a 2007 launch.

There's no way Mario will be later than a summer release..

It wouldn't be very wise to release Galaxy along with Brawl in the same time period (I'm assuming Brawl will release during the 2007 holiday season).

mario strikers and super paper mario-march, bw2 and fire emblem-may, mario galaxy-august, metroid-november, smash-december, sorry no time for animal crossing- pushed to 2008

Nice schedule for 2k7, I think those should be mine:
* Disaster: Day of Crisis
* Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
* Super Mario Galaxy
* Super Paper Mario (Former GC title)
* Super Smash Bros. Brawl
* Wii Music

I'm not sure about these 2:
* Project H.A.M.M.E.R.
* Fire Emblem: Goddess of Dawn

And what the heck is this one?!
* Forever Blue

Honestly, I can't see Nintendo releasing Metroid, Mario and SSB:B all within a six month period.  It wouldn't make sense.  One of those has to be for '08.  I would be happy, don't get me wrong.  But I worry about the following two years.  Perhaps a new Kid Icarus or Earthbound would make a nice late '07 killer app?  Maybe Punch Out, which would be a system seller.

I can see SSB:B being delayed, especially if they have to work out the online.

What happened to Metroid Prime Corruption?  It seems it's not on Nintendo's 1Q 2k7 release list.

I DARE YOU!

Seriously, this is how I see the 2007 launches:
Metroid Prime 3: Late spring/Late summer
Super Mario Galaxy: Late Summer/Late Fall
SSB Brawl: Late Fall/Winter, early 2008

In between them are the titles mentioned in this thread.

Well I made a topic a couple months ago about it, it is basically a scuba diving game where you explore the ocean either by yourself or with other people online. It has potential to be a really relaxing and interesting game if done right.

Anyone think that we'll actually get a new 3D Side scrolling mario for the Wii?  I'm one of the few who dosn't think the 3D Mario games have been as interesting as the 2D versions, despite still being fun games.
Title: RE:Nintendo's Wii titles for 2007
Post by: starfoxssb on November 26, 2006, 01:07:52 PM
I doubt Wii will get any 2D mario games.I think that will be left for the DS.But Mario Galaxy does look really interesting and fun.

Super Paper Mario is a 2D Mario game.  Way to be informed, kids.

I'm hoping that 2007 brings out the major franchises and 2008 brings out the major original titles.  Nintendo needs new characters, finally, methinks.
Title: RE:Nintendo's Wii titles for 2007
Post by: segagamer12 on November 26, 2006, 06:27:42 PM
he said 3(three) D Side Scrolling not 2d so way to read a post people.



I still am hoping Super Paper Mario turns out good cuz (and I am prepared to take the heat for this) thousand year door was a huge disapointment for me.

Besides that Metroid and Smash Bros is the only Nintendo games uinteresting me so far, maybe disaster but ill haev to learn more about it.

Right now all I am waiting for is payday so I can get COD3 and then I am gonna be waiting impatiently for MK Armageddon to arrive.

not much else has intereste dme so far. COD3 would have been better if it was online but I heard Wii wasnt doing online games yet.

Hmm, I wonder if Pennant Chase baseball will show up?

IceCold: I've been wondering the same thing.  Also, I hope we're still getting Wii motorsports...I want airplanes!

I think Nintendo will release Metroid, Mario and Super Smash Bros. next year if it can get them finished.  The thing to keep in mind is that capturing customers early on to build up momentum is important to a healthy system.  If you can get a big customer base, third parties start filling in the release schedule for you.  Look at GBA, it still gets as many games as GameCube even though DS has been on the market for two years.

I'm a bit worried about the tiny lineup for first quarter 2007.  I hope Nintendo or third parties have more planned or else Wii may suffer from the same "no games" reputation as GameCube and N64.  The overall lineup for 2007 looks good, but if all the big games come out between August and December, that's not so good.

It'll probably be released around then, but personally, I don't care.

Let them take as long as they need to get it finished and polished.

Metroid 3 is the only one im eagerly awaiting. I dont mind how long they postpone it, as long as it is for improvement reasons. If i have to wait longer for a better, prettier game, so be it. That said, a gamespot employee(a respectable one) stated that MP3 is to be released in june of 07, according to nintendo. Take that for what its worth.

I'd rather have solid dates than all this random speculation.
