Waiting for any more scans of MH3, and Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Wii, which is listed.

Gundam vs Gundam looks awesome.  Don't care much about how they they are messing up Monster Hunter.  Tatsunoko vs. Capcom on Wii will be getting imported for sure.  White Knight Story looks ok and I hope it turns out good.

I'm so glad Gundam vs Gundam is going to work with the PS3-PSP adhoc multiplayer thing.

White Knight Chronicles looks awesome, I'm getting an Escaflowne vibe from it...  :hyper

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that.  We need to get an evilbore game going so I can kill you all with Alex.

WKC only has me interested because the old old footage of it had seamless battles and looked somewhat interesting, but as things came out since then it seems like it will an enjoyable RPG, just not the amazing one people were hyping it up as.  It seems like it will be IU caliber or something.

I am purely excited about Dissidia for the FF fan service at this point, and despite saying I am excited, I am really not.  I was way back when it looked like Psychic Force with FF characters, but the gameplay now looks really confusing.  

08 stuff? No More Heroes and Smash?  Or do they not count anymore

Smash was enjoyable and so was No More Heroes (despite being kind of a shitty game), but neither of them were really that great like TvC will be.

-Dec. 11th in Japan
-More characters than Arcade version

That is an insanely fast port; sounds like Basara X where they are concentrating more on the home version and sort of pushing the arcade version out the door as the "unfinished beta."  Basara X also came out just a few months after the arcade release, got more modes, and two more playable characters.  And while SF4 is not getting such a quick home release, we already know that it's going to have more characters as well.  Capcom is killing their own arcade market, makes no sense to me.

I am also going to laugh my ass off if SSF2T HD Remix doesn't come out before this.



08 stuff? No More Heroes and Smash?  Or do they not count anymore

NMH is technically a 2007 game.  Smash, LOL.  I liked it but does it stack up to a Capcom Vs. game?  Doesn't even need an answer, it's obvious.   :P

Wii for me this year has been Smash, Mario Kart, Warioland, Samurai Spirits Collection, Oneechanbara Revolution, and Biohazard Zero.  So that's three sequels, one port collection available on another platform, one so-so game with versions on other platforms, and a Game Cube port.  YAY.

At least now I can add Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom -Wii GOTY The best game the system will have thus far- to the list along with Tenchu 4.  And I guess Rockman 9.

Isn't there a homebrew version to make the Wii play games from other regions (since Ninty stopped Freeloader from working)?

should've been a psp game so they could do proper 3d and not that lame ass chibi shit.

or they could have gone 2d all the way. either option would have sufficed.

It IS A HnK fighting game for PSP, based on the Legend Of Raoh storyline or whatever it's called.  Made by Interchannel.  I figured this would be a port of the Arc System Works HnK fighter but it's not; I dunno about this one...

It saddens me that the Level 5/Ghibli RPG was originally in development for a console, but then moved to the DS.
