I really want Max & The Magic Marker as well as as Cave Story and La Mulana.

There are some retail titles I'd like to have but its those WiiWare ones that I really want right now. Unfortuantly as much as I loved Mario Galaxy, so far the sequel just looks like "more of the same".

So you want to pay for ancient PC freeware but you don't care to play an actual NEW game because it's "more of the same". I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry.

If "more of the same" is a bad thing, you should have played the first level of Mario Bros., the first level of Super Mario Bros., and the first level of Super Mario 64 and never touched the series again. You should also only ever watch one episode of any television show and only ever eat any type of food/drink any type of drink once in your lifetime. After all, the rest is "just more of the same", right?

I'd happily pay for La Mulana & Cave Story, they deserve it plus they are not asking full price. Nintendo has the talent to do something more than Mario Galaxy Redux.

See what you mean on the first sentence, though the last sentence I don't. To me Mario Galaxy 2 lacks the imagination of most Mario sequels, its the first "straight up" Mario sequel (in the proper series) since the Japanese version of SMB2. Even Mario Sunshine had SOMETHING to seperate it from Mario 64, albeit just a gimick. Mario Galaxy 2..looks the same game even down to the levels only this time you can use Yoshi.

@Thordrian: I'm not saying Cave Story and La Mulana aren't worth the money (the existence of free versions aside), but there's still no reason to bash ANYTHING for being "more of the same" unless it was bad from the beginning.

My feelings exactly.

Unfortunately, this thread is for Wii retail games only - that excludes WiiWare. You could always start a new thread for WiiWare if you feel that strongly about it, though ;)

If 2 people vote for a game and 80 people vote negative for it, its not a hyped game

If 80 people hate it enough to cast a vote against it, it's apparently pretty hyped.

Am I the only one finding it funny there's so much hype around a game with no screenshots, no gameplay videos, not even a name, just a poster? "Untitled Zelda Project" really needs to be taken down until it's, you know, an actual game with proof of development.

Anyway, SMG was actually really good. I don't think SMG 2 will be bad by any means, but I would have rather had a different game (Star Fox Wii, anyone?). Nintendo only milks the cash cow nowadays. SMG sold like hotcakes and, instead of trying something new and different, they'll just make a sequel to it. Seeing as a lot of Nintendo franchises are slowly phasing out (Star Fox is a large example, since it lacks any form of "casual crowd" appeal), with the only "hardcore" franchise from Nintendo still going strong is Metroid, I just think it's quite sad.

Also, I'll give +1 to Animales de la Muerte. It's a relatively unknown "Smash TV"-esque shooter by High Voltage (dudes making The Grinder and who made The Conduit). There's some trailers on Youtube if you're interested. It was gonna be a WiiWare game, but couldn't fit the size standards.

I had no idea A Boy and His Blob was even in development for Wii. The trailer looks intriguing and I will definitely be checking it out when it lands.

Are you voting for that title, then, or did you just think this is a list of upcoming games? I didn't forget to add it since thus far nobody has voted for it.
