[Hadrian]

I highlighted Kirby as its one of those current mysteries, is it still a version of the game that was meant to hit the Gamecube or is it something new? It does say Temp after it but then so does Sin & Punishment 2 for the Japan release and thats already out.

As usual nothing that hasn't been mentioned before but Another Code fans may be pissed that the Wii game isn't on the list for USA gamers.

Again nothing we don't already know about but its nice to see Glory of Hercules, Warioware DIY & Picross 3D still on the list as nothing has been said about those for a while. For those that don't know Famicom Wars DS2 was of course already released in both Europe & NA back in 2007, I would feel for the Japanese folk but its not as if they don't usually get first dibs on games anyway. Its disheartening to see that most of the games coming have already been released in Japan and yet Japan only has one new game announced for next year..why is that? Are Nintendo focusing more on Wii or are they secretly working on games for the DS follow up?

[yobemal]

hmm, can't launch them from USB loader then...my disc reader is broken so can't play them anyways then

 

[Canonbeat234]

Kirby Wii, FUCK YEAH!! If only SEGA can make a decent Sonic game for once. I mean Sonic Unleashed was good but finding the moon/sun medals to get into a certain act made me stop playing altogether.

 

[Maikel Steneker]

Definately nice to see Kirby scheduled for this year in Japan. It's time for Nintendo to release this. I think it'll release next year as a 4-player 2D platformer.

Could very well be, a bit like NSMB Wii then. Hopefully they do include online in that version then

Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't Kirby Wii always been scheduled for the current year but no news ever comes of it?

 

[CockroachMan]

It's practically November already.. how can they have games scheduled for 2009 without any pictures, videos or information out by now!?

And yeah, Kirby is always on those lists.. for at least 3 years now..

 

[GeekyGuy]

Ooh, another WareWare game in the works for DS. I'm on board with that.

 

[Egonny]

DS

Japan
The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks 2009/12/23

Pretty much.

2005, announced for the Gamecube.
2006 annoucned to be for Wii instead.
2007 Hoshi no K?b? (Kirby of the Stars) appeared on Nintendo release lists.
2008 to present day listed as Kirby Wii.

Well they reckon that "Project Needlemouse" which is the next Sonic game will please fans of the 2D games.

What? We get an official Nintendo game before Japan? It's the end of the world.

 

[thedicemaster]

i wonder if "glory of heracles" is the US version of "Hercules no Eikou"

for those who don't know, heracles was a greek hero in ancient times, who is nowadays due to some misunderstanding remembered mostly by his latin name hercules (heracles(hated by hera if i remember it correctly) is his greek name, hercules is his latin(roman) name)

 

[Guild McCommunist]

i wonder if "glory of heracles" is the US version of "Hercules no Eikou"

It is. And Hercules no Eikou was quite a good game, albeit with a few problems.

 

[Overlord Nadrian]

Never played Hercules no Eikou, what's it like gameplay-wise?

 

[Egonny]

DS

Japan
The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks 2009/12/23

1. Yes, it's the end of the world.
2. It'd be more logical if Nintendo released the game in America just before Christmas.

 

[YayMii]

Hoshi no Kaabi!

So ???? (Kirby) is supposed to come sometime within the next 2 months?

If that's true, they're probably keeping that news to themselves until it comes out.

 

[shakirmoledina]

i wonder why they dont mention something like imagine
famicon wars is for DS2? nice to see games already mentioned but Golden Sun and Blood of Bahamut is taking long
