Talk is cheap. Nevertheless, some Japanese research company is predicting that a new Zelda or Mario game will be announced next week, in addition to Wii Fit Plus. GameDaily distills the important stuff.
The research company asserts that Wii Fit Plus will be announced, available in a bundled version with the Wii Balance Board and as software only. Macquarie also expects “Nintendo to learn its lessons from last year” and announce either a new Zelda or Mario title for Wii, though they do not expect a price cut to accompany those announcements.
Miyamoto knows I’d be happy with that.
Hey, maybe no one saw my post on the Infendo E3 thread so I'll try again here. Who's going from Infendo? Writers as well as Readers? Anyone? Anyone interested in a meet up?
New Pikmin PLZ!
Bloggers: Blake, Will, Sean. Readers: I have no idea. 🙂
Blake,
I'll assume since you didn't mention a meetup you're not interested. No worries, enjoy the show, maybe I'll bump into you in a Nintendo Line! 🙂
I will be slave to Miyamoto if he goes up on that stage and announces a new wii only Zelda… Seriously!
Zelda: Spirit Tracks is good enough for me. I won't wish for a new Zelda for the Wii when we've got one coming to the DSi.
I was really hoping that this year would be the year of the DS. I like the little portable in all its incarnations. But it's turning out to be the year of the Wii.
Here's what I think will eventually happen by the end of this year:
Uus (the Wii2, what I call it anyway) to be in the works
New Zelda Wii released toward the end of the year/beginning of 2010
Wii Fit Plus sells
MotionPlus sells
StarFox, F-ZERO, or both announced for Wii with online gameplay
The 3-D Kirby game put off for so long will be made
For the DS, I really want this to happen:
F-ZERO DSi
New Super Mario Bros. 2
Metroid Fusion 2, rumored to be called Metroid: Dread, but never confirmed or released, to be a DSi exclusive by end of the year
Super Smash Bros. DSi
DSi killer app
DSi VC
For both:
3rd party developers who spend so much time making games for the PS3 and the 360 will regret their choices after The Conduit comes out
Bungie releases Halo for a Nintendo console after all
Street Fighter comes back to Nintendo
Super Smash Bros. PokeMon Stadium 1 and 2 coming to VC
Accessories:
-Feet/ knee pheripals for Wii (to finally get some fiitus or kniitus)
-Wii spectacles (Jack you see things :S)
-Hologram station – Beam me up shiggy
-Wii – DS connection – Finally!
-Official 3D Headtracking (thanks Johnny Chung Lee)
Games:
-Zelda Wii – we still haven´t got the real Wii deal
-A new Mario Party – (yay for online)
-F-Zero Wii with a kick ass online mode
-Maniac Mansion Wii -gulp-
-Bob´s game 😛
-Online 8, 16 and 64 bit Nintendo and Sega games
-A shooter for the Wii zapper
-Mario (kart!)/ Zelda/ Advance Wars for DSi only, so we have to buy the DSi
-Street gangs DS or Wii (HeLL YEaH!)
-Don´t embarres us with more remakes please – except for A Link to The Past or Ocarina of Time with updated graphics
Consoles:
-None – That wouldn´t make any sense unless they want th 3 pillars back and they decide to do the Wii HD with a kick ass online system
yeah, we´ll probably never see that.
it took me forever to find a wiifit for my girlfriend all the while hearing "have you looked for a wiifit recently?" on a daily basis. i finally found one about a month ago so if nintendo releases an updated model with improved functionality that is required for future games i'm seriously going to be pissed.
