I apologize for the pointlessness of this post, but I just had to share my excitement with you in the form of a Cblog.

Today, we found out that a) Super Mario Galaxy 2 is coming out May 23rd, and b) Metroid: Other M is coming out June 27th. For me, this is absolutely fucking amazing news, I wasn't expecting Galaxy 2 to come out until at least Christmas time, and Metroid to come out until next year sometime. :D

At least from how I remember how Nintendo works, they announce a game years before it comes out, then slowly build up the hype machine faster and faster, and make multiple delays until the game is finally released years later. Which is why I'm so excited that both games are coming out in the first half of this year. I'm just surprised.

So good job, Nintendo for actually holding true and coming out with both games this year. Just please don't pull any last minute delays out, kay? <3

Also, Sin and Punishment 2 June 7th? Yes please!

Crazy amounts of excitement today. Pretty much feel like getting in a room with a bunch of people and doing one of those ridiculous "hold hands and jump around while screaming" moves.
I don't own a Wii... yet the news still surprised me. I'm hoping Other M will be good enough to convince me to purchase a Wii. Too bad there wasn't any news on Zelda.
Super excited! =) I thought much the same, Garison. Figured we wouldn't be playing SMG 2 until at least December, maybe November! So, yes, this is amazing news! Also, Metroid: Other M.
Thank you, Nintendo! Hugs.
Looks like I need to bust my @ss for more money.
Still no Kid Icarus news. :(
I was thinking the same thing Garison. I'm not huge on 3D Mario, but I'm so stoked for Metroid.

Additionally, Monster Hunter 3 in April with free online and Megaman 10/Cave Story for March. I'm really going to have to get that SD card.

Also, this gives me hope that Nintendo will announce Zelda at E3 for a Holiday release.
yeah cave story!!!
Also, the Wii version of PoP: Forgotten Sands will feature an SNES copy of PoP hidden within!... no? Still, great news regarding Mario, Metroid, and Sin and Punishment!
YES! Awesome news is awesome.
Awesome...now where's my new Pikmin?
Nerdgasmed at least four times - probably more - between the hours of 6 and 7pm. It's been a great evening and I can't wait to read the coming impressions of Other M! I need to know what that's all about!

Only downer is whenever these games are coming to Europe. Galaxy 2 is three days before my birthday in America, so a release around that time would be perfect for me! I actually forced myself to wait for Galaxy 1 until Christmas in 2007, just so I'd have that "special" Mario feeling come the big day. I was not disappointed!
I love you.
I love you too, seigreid.
Don't forget about Dragon Quest!

I was thinking the same thing, this was the Day of Nintendo over here.
I thought the same thing as you did. I expected both games to come out in November or something. Iwas really surprised to see I'll be getting to play them so soon! 2010 barely started and the Wii already has NMH2, Tatsunoko, Mario and Metroid. Good year!
OH GOD I CAN'T CONTAIN MY EXCITEMENT ABOUT VIDJA GAEMEZ!!!
It's a surprisingly good year for the Wii.

No More Heroes 2, Tatsunoku vs. Capcom, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Red Steel 2, Fragile Dreams, Metroid: Other M...

omgggg!!1!
I didn't get online today until like an hour ago. I am still reeling.
actually recently Nintendo has been throwing trailers out and then bringing the game out less than a year later. The reason Twilight Princess had such a delay was because they changed the development mid game to be compatible with the wii. That added to it.
Agreed, a good day overall, still i sorely missed any Zelda info, even a confirmation that they'd release some info on E3 would have done it for me.

@randombullseye & Yojimbo: I know, damn it, i know.
Yeah, I'm pretty much 100% positive (I think) that Nintendo will have a shit load of Zelda info at E3. They have to save SOMETHING for the big press conference, right?
Drunk puppies are awesome.
Fapped for good news and Coors Puppy!!
Anyone have news on when cave story is coming to EU wiiware?
