[quote name='A Happy Panda']No, not at all. I thought SSB had a tentative date of Summer 07? There's also Metroid Prime 3, and Mario Galaxy to look forwards to. But, I was simply stating that the launch was pretty weak, and there really isn't much to play in the coming months besides say Warioware in January and WiiPlay now delayed to February. Alot of the games, for me at least, I can sum up with this statement: "Oh, it's a pretty fun game......but I wouldn't pay $50 to get it."[/QUOTE]
Well, that's true enough. I would say Zelda is a $50 game. I would put Elebits as a good $40 game. Rayman and Excite Truck - $20. Monkey Ball - $10. The rest I haven't played. But I am a pretty cheap-ass CAG and generally like my games $5 or so, so that's high praise coming from me
.
As for the releases - SSB might be a tentative summer release, but I seriously doubt it. They said Mario was an early 2007 release originally, then they said "March to December", which in Reggie-speak means DECEMBER. Metroid was supposed to be March, but there are rumors that has been pushed off till the Fall. And SSB was never as 'certain' as those two were, which is why I'm guessing 2008.
I'm looking forward to WarioWare, Wii Play, and Mario Party 8 all in the next few months. That's enough for me with the huge backlog I have and, along with the games I already have, more than justifies my launch purchase of the Wii. I look forward to getting a few more titles when they get cheaper (like Madden, Super Swing Golf, maybe Red Steel). And I'm hoping some more 3rd party titles will surprise me like Rayman did in the mean time while waiting for Metroid/Mario/SSB/AC.
