Seeing how Kirby Wii is a Dec release, unless Fortune Street comes out before Skyward Sword, Nintendo will have 0 games to release for the Wii between July and mid-November in the U.S. Wow Reggie. Wow.

I'm pretty sure Kirby will be out before Zelda in the US. So maybe October, if Zelda's a November release worldwide.

Nintendo European release lists #1 ?

I mean I'm pretty sure we don't have the release list for the US
 
What a surprisingly nice schedule for Wii. Are we also getting Kirby?

TWO Kirby in one year on a single home system? I'm feeling happy!

The Last Story (Nintendo): Coming to Europe in 2012

Pandora's Tower (Nintendo): Coming to Europe in 2012

Fantastic confirmation!
 
This Q4 is going to leave me with a much lighter wallet.

Zelda, Super Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 3DS, Tales of the Abyss, Star Fox and a couple of PS3 titles.

The Wii just keeps on giving. The Last Story and Pandora's Tower will be mine :D

Good to see Last Story and PT confirmed.

Also just 5 Virtual Console games for the rest of the year? Good games, but 5?

They never list all of the VC games that are due to come out. This is just a small selection of the ones coming out this year.

Nintendo DSiWare - Cave Story (Nicalis): TBC Q4

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL, I'll believe it when I see it on the store.

Kirby's Adventure - Dec

Yeah right. NOE + Any Kirby/Sakurai game = Heavy delays.

Ah cool.

Hope the DSiWare Cave Story does come. I don't fancy the 3DS version.
 
Jesus, EU still hasn't gotten Cave Story DSi?

Then again, you guys are getting Xenoblade and the like, so everything evens out, I guess :P
 
Wii:
- Xenoblade Chronicles (Nintendo): 19 Aug --> Getting it next week for 40 € instead of 60 (CC Pro Bundle), nice deal
- Nintendo Selects The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Nintendo): 16 Sep --> Sold it after beating it 4 years ago, but thinking about buying it again.
- Nintendo Selects Super Mario Galaxy (Nintendo): 16 Sep --> Already beat SMG2 but thinking about getting this for "cheap"
- The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (Nintendo): 18 Nov --> Day 1
- The Last Story (Nintendo): Coming to Europe in 2012 --> not precise enough :(
- Pandora's Tower (Nintendo): Coming to Europe in 2012 --> see above

DS:
- Nintendo DSiWare - The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords - (Nintendo): TBC Sep --> Cool, but I don't know anyone with a DSi or 3DS to play with :(
- Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 2 (Nintendo): 7 Oct --> Getting this when it's cheap, preferably after beating the first game

3DS:
- Super Mario 3D Land (Nintendo): TBC Nov --> Day 1
- Mario Kart 7 (Nintendo): TBC Dec --> Not sure about this one
- Tales of the Abyss (Namco Bandai): TBCQ4 --> I needed another Tales game :D
- One Piece Unlimited Cruise SP (Namco Bandai): TBC Q4 --> Will be my first One Piece game

That's a pretty huge list of games to buy :O

Kid Icarus coming in early 2012.

Didn't we already know this?
Add another one to the delayed Sakurai/Kirby list

Also, why the hell are they pushing back Super Pokemon Rumble to December? What a stupid time to release the game (would've made for the perfect October release, now it's gonna get overshadowed by Mario Kart 7 and October is looking bare)

Mind you though, it gives Kirby Mass Attack a bit of room though
More Kirby games seeing delays...
 
Wii in 2012:
Last Story
Pandora's Tower
Rhythm Paradise
Fortune Street
Mario Party 9

Yes, that was already known but missing on this list.

Is Bionic Commando the gbc one?
Probably the B&W one. It's pretty good too. Oh, neither the GB or GBC ones are the same as the NES game, each is entirely different. (The GBC one is Bionic Commando: Elite Forces). I really love the GBC game, but the original GB game's also good stuff... I like that it adds password save, versus the NES game, makes it much less frustrating.

NoE deserves all the love!
 
Nice to see that Last Story and Pandora's are now officially announced for Europe, can't wait.

Well, actually, I can. But it's nice nevertheless.
 
I'd never expect to see NOE shoot first on dating Skyward Sword*...I pity the employee who made this list and everyone who works for that department as NCL are probably purging them right now...

*-It sort of reveals the American date as recently they've been trying to get big franchises really close to each other for simultanious launch (see Pokemon earlier this year...though I wonder if that was so they could get the Gamefreak guys at the launch parties)

Bah, no Fortune Street
(I doubt I'd buy it anyway but I though this was down for certs as 2011 in America)
or Rhythm Paradise (I can understand this one, the localisation stuff takes time).
 
Wii this fall said:
Xenoblade
Mistery Files
Zelda Skyward Sword
Kirby's Adventures
COD Modern Warfare 3

Wii last fall said:
Wii party
Goldeneye 007
COD Black Ops
DJ Hero 2
Michael Jackson the Experience
Flingsmash
Donkey Kong Country Returns

Well, this year is very solid.
 
I see at least two more imports in my future.
At this point., I don't care if NOA releases Pandora or TLS.
I'm still trying to understand why I'm paying less for Xenoblade ($48) than any game I bought in the US.

The US get Fortune Street as they get no Xenoblade this year ;)
 
Excited that Europe is getting TLS and PT, but just so dissapointed in the fact I have to import because we can't get any localization.

I hope you rot in hell NoA.

NoA position now is becoming ridiculous.

It was ridiculous from the beginning.
I want to play the three games but what adds to my anger at NOA's conduct is the fact that there's nothing else!
They're saying "piss off" to everyone who needs a bit more than Mystery Case Files or Fortune Street.

It's a conscious decision not to cater to the 'core' gamers who went ahead and bought a Wii.
So despite all the lip service given to 'U' at E3 Nintendo's actions are speaking loud and clear.
Because now we get a gimped 'family' Wii on top of it all.
Fun times lol ... It'll be my turn to say "piss of" in not too long
