Anyone know anything else that is gonna rock the Wii coming out this year or even next year? I think I've got all the bases covered, but I might've missed one, there is so much.

How the hell did I even miss My Horse & Me 1?
I have now placed a preorder on each title listed. Thank you.

I have no idea! It's displayed prominently at every retailer that sells Wii games, at least where I live... You can't help but buy it! They should put them right by the checkout like gum and candy bars, so more people will trust their instincts. If you gotta ask a clerk to open up the display case, it gives you time to doubt your decision.

To be fair, Summer Athletics is coming to all systems... but the PS3.

To think the other night I was just wondering when a game was going to come out for the Wii where I could rescue koala bears. Finally my prayers have been answered.

That's ok, I'll just buy the Wii version. See, the PS3 and Wii go hand-in-hand, best of both worlds.

Wow, calm down dude. It's called satire - poking fun in order to bring about change.
I'm sure I'm not the only Wii owner frustrated by the lack of quality third-party titles.
I'm sure they're coming (E3 will have something, to be sure), but in the meantime, why am I not allowed to joke around about it? Or even flat out bitch about it? I see so many people bitch about the supposed non-existent PS3 library who don't even own the consoles...
I have a Wii, and aside from a couple WiiWare titles, I haven't played anything since January on it because 95% of the lineup is made out of the crap I posted above.
Don't take life too seriously, man. You'll never get out of it alive.

I'm prepping my pom-poms right now!
w00t w00t!
And once I've finished All Star Cheer Squad, I'll move onto Mad World, Kid Icarus, Spyborgs and whatever else isn't the sh*t listed above.
Dolson, you're getting the troll of the week award.

Thanks for lending me your trophy, then! I will keep good care of it and return it to you in pristine condition.

You better had, I expect to be able to see my Sony hating face in it.

Well, I'm sure your reflection has been permanently etched into it over time anyhow, but I'll see what I can do. ;)

Everyone says that, so I'll at least rent it, possibly buy it. It's just not the kind of game I think I can get into, but I have been wrong once before (Guitar Hero series comes to mind).
I'll rent it soon. And then if my wife and I like it, I'll buy it. That's it. That's my plan. ;)
EDIT: OK, just got back from Blockbuster. I spent $11 to rent this sucker, it better be good!

So yeah sorry,just had a short nap just now and was tired and po'd at missing work I sometimes go nuts on unrelated stuff. :o
Anyway as referring to the last few posts bloom blox I have no interest in but hope you try Okami soon dolson it freaking rocks more than Zelda IMO.

I had no interest in Boom Blox either, but everyone points to it as this amazing Wii game, and well, it kinda is good, I have to say. I played for one hour and twenty minutes straight, and I finished all of the explore modes except the grab tool one or whatever it's called. A lot of the levels are super easy, and I got gold on at least half on my first try, but then you get the odd one where it looks super easy, but it's not, and so you re-try like 5 or 6 times until you get it.. Heh. Gonna try multiplayer on the weekend. It's worth a rent, even for a doubter, like you and me. It's not worth the $50 asking price though (it's not a budget game here, contrary to the TRS review). It's fun, but I can't see me playing it for very much longer in solo mode, sadly (like Wii Sports, basically).
Boom Blox is perfect for the Wii, but the only thing the accelerometers appear to be used for is measuring how hard you're throwing. Something very very similar could be done on the PS3. You'd have to aim with the analog stick, then press a button to lock on and then make the throwing motion and let go of the button... The grabbing tools would be a little harder to do, but could be done, since depth doesn't appear to be measured either. Of course, it wouldn't make much sense to put it on the PS3, as it wouldn't sell to that demographic.
I'll buy (not rent, too long) Okami some day, just, the main problem is I like being connected to my friends on my PS3, and if I am playing a Wii game, I can't see if I'm getting messages or chat invites. Just there are too many other games I want more.
