Whether you're a longtime gamer who likes classic franchises or a newcomer aiming to keep your brain sharp, Nintendo's summer lineup of games has something for you. Nintendo's offerings are anchored by key Wii™ games like Metroid Prime® 3 Corruption and Mario Strikers™ Charged. Nintendo DS™ owners can challenge their minds with games like Brain Age™ 2: More Training in Minutes a Day and the new picture-based puzzle game, Picross DS™.

Licensees also are demonstrating a strong commitment to Wii and Nintendo DS by announcing more than 40 titles in all genres. The unique controls of Wii and Nintendo DS make the Nintendo platform versions of these games entirely new experiences. No matter what your taste or experience level, you'll keep busy this summer!

None of those titles impress me. I might sell my Wii after the release of Galaxy.

Seconded, but It doesn't mean you should sell your Wii just yet, Area 64, we've only seen the tip of the iceberg.

"None of these titles?!" What of Metroid Prime 3?!?

"Mega Man Star Force"? Interesting. Sounds like Battle Network.

I was unaware of a Brain Age sequel and a third Phoenix Wright.

I think Japan has a fourth Phoenix Wright (can't remember the series' Japanese title) in the works.  Other than Phoenix Wright and Metroid Prime 3, I'm not all that impressed.

But then won't you have to rebuy one when more Marios and Zeldas come out? And what of SUPER SMASH BROS. BRAWL?

Ahh yes, can you imagine a Mario Kart on the Wii?

Out of all of those games on that list, only 1 game catches my eye.
