Looks like Warioware DS is released before Warioware Advance 2. Can't say I like the localized name, Warioware: Twisted.

It just says it's in developement, doesn't say it will hit in Q2.

Seriously, I don't want this game in Q2, I want Nintendo to take their time with this game.

I can confirm that Zelda Minish cap is a worthy addition to the Zelda series.

I hate to say it, but I hope Zelda doesn't come out before November of 2005. The last thing I want to see is yet another rushed Zelda game. Or hell, even a Zelda game that just enough development time. I'd like for the playtesters at Nintendo to play Zelda so much that they find stuff like the overzealous sailing in Wind Waker that wouldn't be found otherwise.

wow you care about a GC game? Really? :D
 
Oh the Wario Ware news is AWESOME, both fall in line for birthday ggifts for my sister and I as well. Looks like some nice freebies for me. Quite awesome, and I was worried for the Wario Ware series for a seocnd.

Put me down for another Ace Combat GBA WTF.

Good to hear that the Fire Emblem games are on their way.
But I want Advance Wars DS NOW.

Zelda is the only reason I have a GameCube. Come two months after Zelda has been released, this purple lunchbox is finally being traded in! :D

The real question is, what will sell more: The Whinnie the Pooh game, or Virtua Quest? I'm betting on Whinnie the Pooh.

Gah! No new DS game until Feb?!!?


I really hope there's another launch game besides Mario worth buying... :-/

Zelda has to be a holiday title... there really isn't any game that will compare with the hype that game will have (no GTA, no Halo, not MGS) come Christmas time. There will be good games no doubt but Zelda will be the most anticipated (and hopefully not just from Nintendo fans. Nintendo has their best chance to appeal to a new crowd with that game (that is Nintendo developed, not a 3rd party game). Polish it to perfection, even if that means a 1 year delay... I don't care, I just want it to be near perfection.

I would certainly hope this isn't a comprehensive list. If it is, none of the systems are looking particularly good. But I really doubt this list is exhaustive.

now a 1 year delay is just stupid. Just release it November 2005 and it's all good.
 

Here's a glimpse of what you'll be playing on Nintendo systems in the first part of 2005,
along with dozens of unannounced titles that are currently in development.

Oh yea, I expect it then of course. Missing the holiday season would be stupid (then again Nintendo has launched Zelda twice this generation in the spring so I wouldn't put it past them to do it again). My point is that I don't mind a delay at all if it means the finished product will be just that much better. I want ATLEAST 8 dungeons.

The only problems is that there aren't exactly a lot of events between now and May where Nintendo is going to announce new games for the next six months. I don't buy it. Most of the unannounced games they're referring to are probably from 3rd parties, I'd wager.

I agree. 8 Dungeons should be minimum. All resources for ZERUDA plz!

i'm glad -- and faintly surprised -- that gba wario ware's coming. although i wonder why it's taking so long. i suppose yoshi's universal gravitation will make it over as well. new gba fire emblem is a pleasant surprise too.
