Of note Kirby's Anniversary has changed name to Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition.

Apparently we won't be seeing Pandora's Tower, Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly or Dragon Quest X in NA.
More games will likely be announced throughout the summer for holiday release.

Re: The Wii's 2012 Game List Revealed

I have Pandora's Tower myself but looking at that list it's pretty weak. That's expected with the new console coming. I wonder how long they will support it? End of 2013?

Nintendo has a history of abandoning old systems early. Notably the GC (Zelda:TP notwithstanding). So the fact they have anything coming out still is a good sign.
However, it's a shame to not see Pandora's Tower, Fatal Frame and Dragon Quest when other regions have them already (or will very shortly).
I doubt Nintendo themselves will release anything after Kirby's Dream Collection. If they do it'll likely be more re-releases like SSBB, DKCR, K:EY and SMG2 on Nintendo Selects

True, they don't really the time for the Wii anymore as it's just not selling anymore. Same with the DS in a similar way.

they are moving on it seems. I just hope I have enough for the WiiU. I hate that they nevr announced a price. That makes me so mad. jeez.
For now im sticking with my DSi. Im not upgrading to a 3DS just yet.

Sadly (for me, my wife will be thrilled) I've still no interest in WiiU. Yeah, a new NSMBU would be nice. Nintendo Land is probably fun but those aren't worth a new console. Haven't finished NSMBWii yet and I could get a cheaper 3DS if I just want a new NSMB game.
Wii Fit U looks too similar to what I have. And the 3rd party games? I could play 90% of them now on 360.
While that was largely true of Wii (most 3rd party Wii games were PS2 ports) at least Wii was a very different experience with motion vs traditional controls. Despite all Nintendo is saying. WiiU just doesn't seem very different. Not enough anyway.

Of course there will likely be some VC and WiiWare games before the Wii is completely dead, but I wouldn't expect much out of WiiWare although VC could still surprise us with a few AAA classic releases. 
June 6th 2012, 12:32 pm
I guess the Wii's about finished. D:
June 6th 2012, 12:35 pm
about. Its about there
June 6th 2012, 12:40 pm
Only games I'm planning to get are: Lego Batman 2, Lego LoTR, Epic Mickey 2 and Kirby's Dream Collection (maybe)
Own Pikmin 2 and The Last Story already. Importing Project Zero II (aka Fatal Frame).

Hardly anything good left on the upcoming Wii games list. 
June 6th 2012, 5:49 pm
I'm really only interested in, "The Amazing Spider Man," but it will probably just be a watered down/butchered port. Although, "Rise of the Guardians," sounds like an interesting game, but I know nothing about it. I've already downloaded, "Kirby's Adventure," and just recently, "Kirby Super Star," from the NES & SNES VC. Otherwise, I'd probably show some interest in, "Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition," as well. I still have plenty of Wii, WiiWare and VC games to finish playing through, until I can afford to purchase a WiiU. Which will probably be around this Christmas.
June 6th 2012, 5:55 pm
I was interested in Dragon Quest X, but I guess I'll never play that game. 
June 7th 2012, 3:54 pm
I would love to see a Nintendo Selects Super Smash Bros Brawl
June 7th 2012, 7:48 pm
Is this the North American list?
I'm certain Europe is supposed to get more games than this for the year.

You may now add Fishing Resort to that list for the Pal region!

Yeah that's NA. PAL has Project Zero II:Crimson Butterfly coming later this month and some Japanese anime football game their translating too I believe at some point.
I'd love to see the PAL list. Love to see DQX on it...

- Mario Party 9
- Back to the Future
- BIT.TRIP COMPLETE
- Project Zero 2: Wii Edition (end of June)

Enclave come out in PAL regions?
How did that one slip past me?
Looks like some retro PC fun.

Yes, ENCLAVE - Shadows of Twilight was released for Wii in PAL regions on 22th May 2012 for 39,99€.
June 8th 2012, 8:11 am
Are they nuts?
40 Euros for what looks like a mediocre port of a ten year old game (which wasn't that great to begin with)? In PAL?
For that price, in PAL regions, one can get Xenoblade, The Last Story, Pandora's Tower or Project Zero.
I do want it, as I like those old school PC dungeon crawls and it'd be nice to play it on Wii but that's about 30 euros more than I'd ever consider for it.
Now if it was Buldar's Gate...

@WiiAboutU there is supposed to be exclusive content in the Kirby Anniversary Collection, but who knows what that will be? Depending on what's added to the games it could be worth buying even if you have the virtual console games. 
June 8th 2012, 2:06 pm
Not much to see here.
June 9th 2012, 11:32 am
Well theres a bunch of games there. But personally most im not intrested in. Epic Mickey 2. But thats it.
June 10th 2012, 12:17 am
Why is there no pic in this article mate? 
The Pal list has many more enjoyable games listed!
