Title: Wiidiculous Wiilease Date FIESTA Post by: Yegolev on August 28, 2006, 09:53:32 AM It's almost September, yet speculation on the release date for the Wii is still as much fun as being pantsless in Tijuana.
Here's some bullshit from GameStop, albeit very interesting bullshit, sorted by release date: 10/1 Metroid Prime 3: Corruption 10/2 SpongeBob Squarepants: Subtitle Avatar: The Last Airbender Elebits w/bonus 10/24 GT Pro Series 10/30 Blitz: The League 10/31 Dragon Ball Z: Bukkake 11/1 Grim Adventures of B&M Cars Need for Speed: Carbon Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles: The Chrystal Beavers The Ant Bully Tony Hawk's Enormous Wallet Trauma Center: Second Opinion Legend of Zelda: You Know What Super Smash Bros.: Brawl Red Steel Dragon Quest Swords: Subtitle Metal Slug Anthology Marvel Ultimate Alliance w/bonus 11/7 Call of Duty 3 w/bonus1 11/10 Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz 11/14 Rayman: Raving Rabbids Happy Feet Madden NFL 07 Far Cry Monster Truck Open Season Blazing Angels: Subtitle 11/15 Super Mario Galaxy5 12/1 Super Mario Galaxy5 Wii Sports Fire Emblem Sonic Wildfire1 Pilotwings Project Hammer2 Wii Sports Airplane Excite Truck Rampage: Total Destruction 3/6 Medal of Honor: Airborne 3/30 Sadness Necro-Nesia Disaster: Day of Crisis Meet the Robinsons SD Gundam G Breaker Jingleheimerschmidt Sengoku Action Duck Hunt Final Furlong3 Super Swing Golf Pangya Resident Evil Wii4 Wii Music WarioWare: Smooth Moves 6/30 Ping Ping Wow, crazy.

Fun! 1 Lies. 2 I refuse to type out all those capital letters and periods. 3 Caution: Horses. 4 Caution: Not Resident Evil 5. 5 I just report it, folks. Title: Re: Wiidiculous Wiilease Date FIESTA Post by: Dren on August 28, 2006, 10:33:43 AM Judging by your Avatar and obvious interest in all things Nintendo, what are the plans for Zelda? I remember hearing once that they will be releasing a version for the GC that looked pretty nifty and then a second for the Wii later.
What's up with that? (I seriously want to know.) Title: Re: Wiidiculous Wiilease Date FIESTA Post by: Yegolev on August 28, 2006, 10:46:50 AM I know, the Wii Stuff thread is a mess. It does have the stream-of-consciousness thing going so there might be a nugget in there. Supposedly both versions will hit at the same time, but honestly I can't remember if that is still true. Mostly because I'll be getting the Wii version and have not been paying attention. I'll poke around and see what I can find, but any difference in release date will likely be minimal.

It's just too easy, and some of these are huge. Also, the first time I saw Crysal Bearers it looked like Crystal Beavers, and I suddenly turned into Leslie Nielsen.

Title: Re: Wiidiculous Wiilease Date FIESTA Post by: schild on August 28, 2006, 07:31:40 PM Does Excite Truck sound like the dumbest name ever to anyone besides me? Hell, the premise is stupid.
Title: Re: Wiidiculous Wiilease Date FIESTA Post by: Yegolev on August 29, 2006, 07:35:31 AM Quote Necro-Nesia Meet the Robinsons What? I don't know what Necro-Nesia is, other than another badly-named survival-horror game, but it's listed on the ElectrogameStoppique site. E3 hands-on at GameSpit: http://www.gamespot.com/wii/action/necronesia/news.html?sid=6150629&mode=previews The full name of the second one is "Disney's Meet the Robinsons", presumably a movie tie-in. Move along. I didn't make up any entire entries, I just modified names of real titles. I figured no one gave a shit what the next Tony Hawk subtitle is, so I spiced it up a bit. This is supposed to be a fiesta, you know. Excite Truck is obviously the sequel to Excite Bike, which doesn't make it less dumb. They should have just recycled Excite Bike since you really can't change the rotational speed of a truck while flying through the air.

Spongebob is funny, but not game-funny. The real subtitle is "Creature From The Krusty Krab", and that's a lot of typing. It seems to be a sort of 3D over-the-shoulder shootemup, maybe a 3D R-Type, except of course not as cool. Title: Re: Wiidiculous Wiilease Date FIESTA Post by: schild on August 29, 2006, 01:50:43 PM Necro-nesia is from Spike. They recently did a game I really enjoyed, Shinobido. Which is coming out here with the same name I believe - it has deadly sushi in it. Also, they're making Way of the Samurai Online, which should be good stuff as it's for the 360. This would be the first survival horror they've made though, so we'll see how it goes.
Title: Re: Wiidiculous Wiilease Date FIESTA Post by: Yegolev on August 29, 2006, 02:22:29 PM Shinobido sounds like it involves horny ninja.
Title: Re: Wiidiculous Wiilease Date FIESTA Post by: schild on August 29, 2006, 02:45:20 PM I can not confirm or deny that.
