Re: 2010 Games Thread: Still 2 years until the end of the world! Let's play Games!
Oh Nintendo Wii. Sweet and subtle you are, you hold the gaming world right now. Let's see what you have in store for us in 2010.
I promise not to turn this part into a joke, though I could easily do it with such satifactory titles such as Satisfashion coming your way... Lol.
WII!:
The Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces - Jan. 12th:
Anime cut scenes and pilot action. Could be fun.
No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle - Jan. 26th:
Sequel to NMH. 2 Beam Katanas... Shit. Looks fun.
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars Zero - Jan. 26th:
I'm sure a lot of you have never heard of Tatsunoko, but it's a very popular anime/manga company in JP land. Now some of the characters fight against some of the best from Capcom. Had a chance to see this game in action at tournaments. Can you say Infinites? Frank West and Zero join the cast as well as 2 new Tatsu characters. Can you say Tekkaman Blade?
Shiren the Wanderer - Feb. 9th:
Atlus makin games for the Wii... Piss! Apparently this game is very popular in Japan.
Free Running - Feb. 16th:
Looks very open ended. Kinda like Tony Hawk with free running. Can't be any worse than Tony Hawk ride right?
The Circle: Martial Arts Fighter - Q1:
Uh couldn't find a video of this, but it is a game based on Capoeira fighting...
Image:
I don't know about this at all.
Calling - March 9th:
Creepy... On the Wii? Wii like Creepy. Looks a lot like Fatal Frame. Approve of it.
Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon - March:
Looks pretty. Voice acting is terrible. Expected.
Red Steel 2 - Q1:
Ok how in the hell they were allowed to do another red steel... Well besides the point this one looks a hell of a lot better, and I will forgive them for the first game because it was a launch title on a system unlike any other.
Special WiiWare mention:
Megaman 10 - March:
Megaman is a series dear to my heart. They were the first games I played as a kid that made me realize I sucked at games and needed to get better. The music is too good, and I will always hold capcom a tier above certain developers just for them realizing "Hey we're making these shitty megaman games, let's get back to our roots... Oh yeah and fuck over megaman vets while we're at it." Megaman 9 was just plain mean sometimes, and here's hoping 10 is much the same. Oh yeah... PROTOMAN!
Sin and Punishment 2 - Q1:
No idea. I feel like having to make a Wii post is a sin and a punishment at the same time. Game does look sweet though.
Monster Hunter Tri - Q1:
I've never played a MH game and I never will... Because I know I would be addicted. PSO was bad enough, but items made out of the monsters you slay... Ridiculous. Looks really fun though...
Well that wraps it up for the wii. That's a lot of games. Sure I missed some here.
I didn't cover the wiiware. Think tomorrow I might do a section on DLoads for all systems, but it looks like the wii is set to shine in that department with a lot of original stuff.
