Nintendo has just announced their Q1 2009 lineup, as as you might imagine, it has a plentiful selection of casual and children’s titles to choose from, which is a less than thrilling (but not surprising) prospect for most of us, although I do have to admit that there is something about a game called House For Dogs that kind of piques my interest. Do you live in an epic house full of dogs you must care for? 

Anyway, you can see the full lineup post jump, and despite what I mentioned above, there are some things I am very much looking forward to in it. Madworld and Puzzle Quest: Galactrix are obvious choices, but Kororinpa 2, House of the Dead: Overkill, and De Blob for the DS also have my interest piqued. Anything in there that you’re looking forward to?
