That's all in here:

They also have lists of million sellers, sales comparison charts, etc. It's all in English.

Wastes hours checking old Famitsu software data, but that's why we love him.
These lists are so laughable..they still have 7 Wii titles listed as 2009 in Japan even though they've already announced their December lineup.

Oh come on, they're just taking the piss with that Kirby entry now.

EDIT: That Mega Mike needs a good darning. Darn you Mega Mike!

:lol

I could see those 2 making it seeing as they're Wiiware games. Hell, we knew nothing about Castlevania Rebirth like a month ago and that's releasing soon.

Everyone claims that Nintendo does zero marketing, so they decided to just go with it and actually do zero marketing. :p

It's Monolith's new RPG:

Erm, what? Were they downgraded to WiiWare games when I wasn't looking?

Probably "Fiscal Year 2009", which runs until March 31.

Dammit, this is the second time I've come into a thread thinking it would be their actual release update PR only for it to turn out to be about their meaningless financial release list. Ughh.

Wtf, you're right. They look like perfect Wiiware concepts. Unless there's a lot more to them than what we've seen, there's no way I'm paying retail price for these.

Yep.

Cue the usual gnashing of teeth and rending of garments for pointlessly passed-over 1st/3rd releases.

What worthless lists. They didn't tell us anything we didn't already know.

Would it have killed them to give us a release date on Pokemon heart gold/soul silver? That BETTER be coming by march at the absolute latest!!!

I nearly thought "(temp.)" meant "temporary title".

I was like HOLY SHIT, "SUPER YOSHI GALAXY" or "SUPER MARIO GALAXY: YOSHI'S PLANET" CONFIRMED! :lol
 

VOOK

We don't know why he keeps buying PAL, either.
Nintendo don't even know when their own shit is coming out - This is not news

Romanes Eunt Domus
Goddammit they list games that already came out.

They just copypasted the last release list ffs.

Yes Boss! said:
Yep,

Still now dates on Sin and Punishment and Endless Ocean. Boo. This is not even thread-worthy.

What dates? They are exactly the same as three months ago: Q1 2010.
 
... Nintendo, hasn't that huge profit cut you got in the first half of this year taught you ANYTHING? The "We failed to release anything new that really caught consumer interest in the second half of 2008, and that hurt us" or whatever?

But no, it's business as usual, release lists with no dates, lots of games with improbable release dates on them, seeming plans for more games that get announced just weeks before they are released and then are never marketed (shocking the world when they don't sell well!), and lots of titles currently not scheduled for a US or European release? Awesome.

Oh yeah, and about Kirby Wii... I mean, it makes sense that this game is taking years and years and years. Kirby games are so incredibly deep and complex, you know, it's easily understandable that one could take like four or five years to make...

... Yeah, why we never got the GC Kirby and why we still don't have a Wii one makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. It's just bizarre. Yet it's supposedly still in development... um, yeah, right. I'll believe it when I see it. (I wonder, how many days before it releases will that be, if it ever actually comes out at all?)

Why would they announce a release date in their financial data? That sort of thing is what PR is for. Again, this is the financial data, this list of releases is gathered only to reiterate what is already known, not announce new things.

That's no excuse for those pointlessly passed over releases though, those are games that should have been announced a long time ago...
