Yes!! Bomberman looks to have an adventure mode!

Super Monkey Ball only shows boxing and kart racing. :lol

Love the desert texture in Star Fox. Really, the game should look like Rogue Leader..

it'd be nice if the OP could put together a simple text list, ordered by date (eg launch, spring, 2011, TBC etc). Browsing that list of pictures (and even the nintendo site) is a pain.

Here's a starting point, but would be nicer if known english names were edited in. I've included links to the source page in case anyone wants to see what a certain game's description is or whatever.

I'm feeling the launch fever. I would like to own every game on that list. Just to try them with the no-glasses 3D.

I hope those KH3D shots weren't actually from the game. I do not need to relive the first game yet again.

In for Mario Kart, Paper Mario, Layton and Tales. Hear that Scamco? RELEASE TALES GAMES IN THE WEST.

What is that Aqcuire game? At first I thought it must be a new Dragon Quest Swords.

I hope Namco thinks, "Hey, launch window opportunity!" and release the game. Also, didn't they recently say that they wanted more Japanese game sales in the West, after all of their Western games did poorly?

The new Ridge Racer shots were a vast improvement on the early ones, but that's not saying too much.

Surprised the launch day list is so sparse if GoFreak's one is correct.

They said they wanted more software developed by Japanese studios instead of outsourced to Western ones. Not quite the same thing. :p

Heh, from the Monkey Ball screens you'd think the game isn't even about awesome stage tilting goal action and is just some random mini-game compilation.

I guess right now if the 3DS is $250 then it's Ridge Racer 3DS for me atm for "launch window". Probably pick up Layton at some point and wait for Steel Diver impressions, although the game doesn't look too hot.

I would wait for Monkey Ball if SEGA hadn't fucked up the last twelve Monkey Ball iterations.

Pretty bleak launch window lineup. But expected.

PAPER MARIO 3DS, WHERE ARE YOU! *sniff*

No I never played the DS 2D games. So I don't know about them. I played the Wii mini-game ones, and then the Shopping cart one whose name escapes me all of a sudden.

I'll probably get Layton if it cones out for launch and some other games later but the game I'm waiting for the most is Paper Mario!!

Nintendo said Kid Icarus would be a launch game last year's E3. And all the usual Nintendo games have a TBA announced date now, besides a few ones I'm not interested in.

You know, I feel really disappointed and kinda deceived about the launch line-up. Nintendo had you believe all those awesome games were shown at E3 where far in development and as if it was going to have the best line-up ever. Now it feels so boring and just like all the usual launch line-ups.

3D tax. i've been calling it since forever.

very happy how many of the titles i want are coming out early on. if we get the same launch in the US... really not sure what i'll be picking up with it, but if DOA is launch here, that's a definate.

so many of those spring games are the ones i'm most excited about.

Scamco is really pushing it this time though. They are charging the most of all launch titles going over 6000Yen while player reports say its graphics are worse than PSP and the 3D effect is done poorly.

Its another example of cheaply made cash in that somehow is getting premium pricing. 3DS first title to price collapse for sure

It's a rather lazy port, but there is some additional content. More demons and an eighth day. And voice acting.
