- Punch Out Wii
- Sonic Unleashed
- Chrono Trigger DS
- Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood
- Fire Emblem DS.
- Megaman 9
It's gonna be a good year. ><
I don't have my hopes up for Star Tropics, but the other choices themselves are pretty awesome. All of those franchises (Except Fire Emblem) are my runner up favorites to Star Tropics. Now if only Star Fox Wii was among the list...

MegaMan 9 is going to be awesome! It's going to be released on WiiWare (rumor has it XBLA might get it as well). It's really old school with 8-Bit NES graphics and music either ripped from or very similar to the earlier games. You should be able to google something on it by now...

It's a brand new Mega Man game, but with original 8-bit graphics and sound. It will be released on WiiWare, Xbox Live Arade, and PlayStation Network. You can read the whole article about it on IGN here: wii.ign.com/articles/888/888041p1.html |

I'm also wicked excited about Star Wars: The Force Unleased and The Conduit (although I think Conduit is coming out NEXT year).

After the initial shock of reading his post, I went to IGN and saw for myself...
FRIGGIN SWEET!!! ;D
2008 makes my list of greatest years in VG's...
Now if this starts a trend *which it very well could*, how about possibly seeing another 8-bit Contra, another SMB, LOZ *new map, some new enemies, new dungeons, etc*, or *to pull the forum's common card out* ST3?

I'm hoping that after Megaman 9 they make a Megaman X9 with the original SNES graphics ;D
I'm also looking forward to seeing the two Sonic games and Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts.

I'm hoping that after Megaman 9 they make a Megaman X9 with the original SNES graphics ;D Yep, I considered that too, minus the SNES graphics part, but if they did MM9 in NES, it would certainly also fit the bill. Just remember though *a spoiler*: If and when MMX9 gets released, there must be NO SIGMA. Sigma's been killed, so he can't just pop up someplace. Lumine *I think that's the one* has to be the main antagonist... |

If they really are developing a new game in the Punch-Out!! series, then it better not just include all of the boxers from the NES Punch-Out!! (excluding Mike Tyson; including Mr. Dream), it should also include all of the boxers from the other three Punch-Out!! games: Punch-Out!! arcade, Super Punch-Out!! arcade and the SNES Super Punch-Out!!.
Along with Little Mac, it should also bring back the two unnamed protagonists from the arcade and SNES versions with names and their own movesets. The green-haired boxer used a right hook and a plain uppercut, while the blonde-haired boxer had the Knockout Punch, the Rapid Punch, the Counter Punch, healing himself after he knocks down an opponent, and powers himself up not only to use his special attacks, but also fight stronger and faster. Little Mac only did a one-two punch and a "☆" uppercut, similar to the green-haired boxer's uppercut, but lifts Little Mac up in the air due to his size being small.
What else the new Punch-Out!! Wii game should include are some songs used in the previous Punch-Out!! games, plus some new ones. It should also include some new boxers and new features.
For the new Kid Icarus Wii game, if it's a remake, then it should be the NES and GB Kid Icarus games remade into one. If it's a new adventure, then that's fine.

New most anticipated game for 2008: ROCK BAND 2! I just read the 80+ track set-list for the game...and I'm PUMPED for it! I'm definitely going to be saving up for this one. A full track list can be found here: www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=71965(being a previous employee, I still like to give props to GS) I also read the 8 page article about the game in this month's Game Informer magazine. I'm completely and utterly psyched! |
