No, I read it properly, just not the way you meant it, apparently.
Perhaps you should have written "I know Wii fans can be annoying, but you guys shouldn't be in here bashing them." or something like that.

Anytime, pal. I'm always available for an English lesson, or a good tennis match, or even just to talk.

Normally I'd agree about 1 or 2 games not being substantial for a year, but I think 1 amazing game can make up for an otherwise crappy year. Little King's Story is easily my GOTY and somewhere in my top 5 of the whole generation. Other than that, I have bought 6 Wii games this year but 2 of them are New Play Control so I don't know I would count that. Either way, looking forward to any game at all is reason enough to not sell a console.
And I fully agree with your second point. There's still a good amount of developers writing the Wii off despite being in first and it sucks. However, there's a lot of great and creative devs putting a good amount of effort into the system and it's greatly helped the library.
Edit: Also may I add that this year has kind of sucked all around. I've only bought 3 PS3 games this year and only one of them was even from 2009, a game I ended up hating (RE5).

Probably no one, since we're all too lazy to keep it updated.

Maybe we should wait until November or at least late October before thinking about that.

So a cool looking niche game like A Boy and His Blob can't be a great game? NyxQuest was a five hour ten dollar platformer, and it's one of the best games I've played all year.
Spyborgs is pretty generic stuff, which is unfortunate since I expected more from that team. Unless it turns out that first level and boss fight is incredibly basic, and that it turns more into something like MDK 2 as it goes on, I don't think A Boy and His Blob deserves to be lumped in with it.

In 2009, the Wii has had exclusive sports games, horror games, platformers (loads of them- which is awesome), strategy games, action games, and adventure games. The only genres it doesn't represent well are FPS (The Conduit and Modern Warfare- yikes), action-adventure (although this isn't a very well-represented genre anywhere), and fighting games (which have been, let's face it, stellar this year on the other two). I doubt the Wii will have another year like this one ever again.

Well said. You did forget RPGs, but that's all gonna change with Arc Rise Fantasia, Tales of Graces, Monster Hunter 3 and probably a bunch I'm forgetting.
I personally think 2010 is going to be even better even if it is a little less diverse.

why does that stupid bashing shit always happen in Wii threads?
list warz? are you fucking serious?
Just because some guys post the upcoming great Wii games in a thread makes it "list warz"??
and why the hell do people, who want to sell their Wii, always have to post that in a positiv Wii thread? no one fucking cares. sell it, ok, but don't post it in a thread like this.
on topic:
2010 will be much better year for the Wii than 2009 (at least for me). There are so many awesome games coming out in 2010.

Honestly, I've been gaming less and less as time goes on. I don't even play my X360 anymore (only use it for other forms of media) and the Wii only gets used for the occasional romp of Wii Sports Resort. Really, the DS is the only system I play consistently now.
That said, in 2010, we get Mario Galaxy 2. That alone is going to make 2010 utterly fantastic. I'll be fully satisfied even if that's the only game, period, that I play all year.

There's always the console megathread. That does leave some stuff out, though.
well despite my earlier pessimism this year turned out awesome for the Wii. not really any heavy hitters but a whole bunch of awesome exclusives and uniquely fantastic multiplats, which is what i wanted
cant wait for next year. the retail stuff looks awesome and i'm going to be getting into the downloadable stuff too. should be awesome

2010 should be a much better year. I think I'll finally turn it on again once Mario Galaxy 2 comes out.
