Wii fit is now Q2 and Mario Kart Wii is 'Spring 08'
Someone was asking about Crosswords DS, it's out May 5

Whoa, didn't realize Advance Wars was coming out so soon. Thanks for the list!

I didn't expect to scroll that much.

March 9: Super Smash Bros.® Brawl from Nintendo
March 10: Worms: A Space Oddity from THQ

Sent to die

March 11: FINAL FANTASY CRYSTAL CHRONICLES: Rings of Fate from Square Enix

I didn't know this was coming out so soon.

Feb. 27: London Taxi: Rush Hour from Destineer

Isn't this a Phoenix game? :|

What's the difference between spring and Q2?

Any chance Active Life for the Wii is Family Ski from Japan?

Nothing amazingly surprising there. The DS has an awesome first quarter, though. Advance Wars, Apollo, Layton, Ninja Gaiden, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, Harvest Moon... I guess the one cool thing I hadn't seen was Okami coming out so soon for the Wii.

Titles I might/will get.

No Samba de Amigo?

March: Nitro Bike™ from Ubisoft

Wait, hasn't this just been released? Is it March already?

Jan. 21: Mazes of Fate DS from Graffiti Entertainment, LLC

Is this in anyway confirmed? The GBA title was something of a cult tip here on GAF, so I was looking forward towards the DS iteration, but I somehow think they won't make this release date (considering we have heard nothing from them recently).

Hm... that list is missing some games. Most noticeably The House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return.

Good to see Okami: Wii Edition among some others up there.

EDIT: There's also no Sega Bass Fishing. Maybe Sega's games just aren't listed for some reason.

What about Final Fantasy IV remake for DS?

What is this?

Full press release, in case anyone is an aspiring copywriter and lives for this stuff::

STRONG LINEUP OF GAMES CONTINUES NINTENDO'S MOMENTUM IN 2008

Bold 2007 Set the Stage for Broad 2008 Software Lineups for Wii and Nintendo DS

REDMOND, Wash., Jan. 16, 2008 – With their focus on fun for everyone, Nintendo's Wii™ and Nintendo DS™ systems are leading a new movement in the world of video games. Games based on brain exercises. … New experiences that surprise even core gamers. … Grandparents buying video game systems – for themselves! Surely, these are unprecedented times.

"The video game industry has never had so many new players, and they've never had so much fun," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of sales & marketing. "Our momentum is not limited to one system or one game. We're going broad and bold in 2008, with something for every member of the family."

Nintendo DS and Wii finished as the No. 1 and No. 2 best-selling systems of the year, respectively. Nintendo continues its momentum into 2008 with a strong lineup of games. In the first half of 2008 alone, more than 65 new Wii games will add to the current library of more than 195 and 80 new Nintendo DS games will add to the current library of nearly 500. Nintendo DS opens the first half of the year with games that demonstrate the breadth of the Nintendo DS library. Advance Wars®: Days of Ruin is a treat aimed squarely at core gamers, while Crosswords DS™ is for all consumers, whether they currently play games or not.

Likewise, the first half of 2008 brings a diverse array of Wii games from Nintendo, including core games like Super Smash Bros.® Brawl; games with universal appeal for gamers old and new with Mario Kart® Wii, which uses the easy-to-pick-up Wii Wheel™; and Wii Fit™, which comes with the Wii Balance Board and has appeal for new consumers well beyond the traditional video game audience. On top of all that, new downloadable WiiWare™ games will make their debut. These unique games have much lower entry barriers for developers and let consumers enjoy an incredibly diverse selection of content.

Third-party publishers also continue their strong support for Wii and Nintendo DS. Some of the innovative Wii games for the first half of 2008 include Ninja Reflex from Electronic Arts, No More Heroes™ from Ubisoft, DeBlob from THQ, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed from LucasArts and Okami from Capcom, in addition to compelling Nintendo DS games like FINAL FANTASY CRYSTAL CHRONICLES: Rings of Fate from Square Enix, Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword from Tecmo and Quick Yoga Training from Ubisoft.

The following is a partial list of Wii and Nintendo DS software for the first half of 2008. Note that details are subject to change.

Also, to anyone saying "Y AM DIS MISSIN", THESE LISTS ARE ALWAYS INCOMPLETE. This one is substantially more complete than the vast majority of the press lists that are sent out.

SEGA's missing entirely actually... guess their PR monkey didn't get the memo in time! :lol

Apparently a KOF'95, '96, '97, compilation pack with online. Released on PS2 last year, I think.

Feb. 8: Kawasaki Jet Ski from Destineer

Take note Nintendo fans, this is good.

Yep, alongside DQIV, Chocobo Labyrinth, Star Ocean FD, The Last Remnant and FFTA2.

The lack of Nintendo published titles on the DS bothers me. But I guess we always knew what was coming down the pipeline. What are the internal Nintendo studios working on?

I do not believe that Mario Kart Wii will be out in spring

Which reminds me - I need a PSP. *sigh*

I need to know what Rondo of Swords is stat! EO2 retitled? Some MMV-ware like Steal Princess? WHAT? :/


Also, why isn't NeoGAF flipping out over Bangai-O Spirits?! You're all filthy non-gamers! :lol

Oh and where the hell are Wii Music and Motorsport?

The real Wii release date thread is HERE.

It doesn't have such discrepancies as NITROBIKE releasing in March, when it released yesterday.

I haven't done a DS thread but if I had it would be posted here.

March 25th for Okami? Seriously? I didnt expect this till May.

Did I see Speed Racer on the list? Talk about childhood idol-age!

So are you going ot do a DS thread as well?

March: Drone Tactics from Atlus USA
April: Rondo of Swords from Atlus USA

What are these? I don't think I've heard anything about them before...

Fixed.

(in SSBB's case)

On top of all that, new downloadable WiiWare™ games will make their debut.

Oh really? Then what's the non-Japanese Wiiware launch date? Why are there no Wiiware games on the game list?

I could...you think it would be equally ignored? :|

We have dates/ranges for:
Advance Wars DS
Layton 1
DS Crossword
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2

Out in Japan recently, but not yet localized (likely to be localized):
ASH
Card Hero
theta
Layton 2

Japanese backlog (IE pre Summer 2007), could still be localized:
DS Air / Jet Impulse (was scheduled to be localized, mysterious disappeared)
Project Hacker (good localization choice)
Kurikin Nano Island Story (excellent chance of being localized)
Slide Adventure Mag Kid (megabombed and had a peripheral, probably not coming)
Cooking Navi (repeated statements from NoA to the effect of "when we figure out how to best do it, we will")
Tingle (yeah right)
Touch Panic

Not yet out in Japan, all likely to be localized:
Kirby Superstar Deluxe
Eternal Chronicle
Fire Emblem DS
Pokemon Ranger 2
Soma Bringer

This is a new press release from Nintendo. It contains new information.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance 2?

At least I see The World Ends With You in there

Drone Tactics is a JP mecha-beetle collection 'em up RPG. Success made it iirc.

No idea on the latter though... help!

What the flip is Rondo of Swords?

*sorry*

Part of the new information is inaccurate.

From Atlus USA, which almost certainly means it's an Americanized name of some non-Atlus game being published locally by Atlus USA. No google matches other than two links for this release list, so I assume it's not yet announcement.

I would love it, thats all I can say.

Drone Tactics DS has at least been officially announced - and has a website already:

One part of me hopes it's a localized Etrian Odyssey 2.

The other part doesn't want such a great series sullied by such an idiotic name. :/

Oh man if it was EO2 that would be the worst title murder in localization since Z&W:TQFBT.

Yeah, I don't see it coming out in spring either.

Make it a summer game. Screw going outside!

notice that there is no solid release date for any Nintendo published game beyond february. methinks that there's going to be a few announcements during GDC...

It could be the subtitle for EO2? DQ Swords is for some reason missing it's main title on the list (it's only "The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors") maybe that happened a few times?

April would be a supringly quick localization though... I thinking it's probably something else.

They didn't say anything about a cobalt blue DS Lite?

I bet...

Wii Fit = May
Mario Kart Wii = June

...both could easily get knocked back farther though.

Yet another crappy Success S-RPG getting localized by Atlus. Like we needed another one, with Drone Tactics already being brought over.
