Hi all, im a fairly new wii owner so i have a back catalogue of games to get through so im good for games right now, but is the release of the new zelda game the end for nintendo in terms of bringing BIG releases to the wii? is it all about the wiiU and 3ds now?

I think it is but there are still at least 1 big Nintendo release for Wii depending who you are. I'm referring to Rhythm Heaven. I'm extremely excited for this game and in my eyes, is still a big release in the pipe.

Pretty much. Only a few games coming out afterwards.

The Last story
Pandora's Tower
Mario Party
that mario party dragon quest game
Dragon quest X (don't think the Wii Version will be localized)

WAT!

Nintendo hasn't released any dates for the January-March quarter yet so let's be patient.

StarTropics 3....You'll see.

You know that and a 3D remake of the mother games are going to be Wii U launch titles.

The Wii won't be dead until the final game is released.
The Wii U isn't likely to come out for close to another year.

November 2012 or september 2012 is within a year. I think Skyward Sword was nintendo's big game I don't think they have anything else. DQX is the last big wii game.

We've still got Dragon Quest X coming, and I'm sure the Rainfall RPGs will be coming out before the Wii U hits.

@ shingi_70
Still that's a pretty long time for no games at all to be coming out.
I never considered a system dead until it has no more games being released.
Even if they aren't big something's bound to come and you never know it might be good.

I'm still wondering what happened to Mario Party 9. They're probably saving it for the dead time next year, but . . . it's a least possible that they're retooling it as a Wii U launch title. After all, board games on Wii U just make sense.

it will be more or less dead (to me at least), unless a miracle happens and NA gets the OpRa RPGs, but that'll probably happen as soon as a flying pig crashes through my dorm window to give me free copies of said OpRa RPGs... waits patiently for a moment nope nothing

Here's what I think Nintendo has lined up for next year:

  • New Super Mario Bros. Wii 2
  • DKC Returns 2
  • A re-release of Metroid Prime Trilogy as a "Nintendo Select"
  • Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 Double Pack

I don't see any of these happening in a million years. The only trick of the tail I expect from Nintendo by now is a double release of Pikmin 3 for Wii and WiiU (a-la Twilight Princess).

Anyway, the Wii won't be dead — it won't be that much alive either though. There are still The Last Story and Pandora's Tower (if you're living in Europe) in the pipeline, plus Rhythm Heaven and probably Rodea, the Sky Soldier. These are the interesting ones anyway (I deliberately omitted Mario Party et similia). Rayman is coming out aswell and it looks gorgeous.

It is definitely not bad for Wii's final 12 months — The Last Story looks epic and if Rhythm Heaven turns out half as good as the portable version we have another bomb. You have 5 years of back catalogue to digest (trust me, it's a lot of world class stuff) and enough new releases to keep you interested until the next console comes out.

Top-10 games I played in 2017: The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild (WiiU) - Rogue Legacy (PS3) - Fallout 3 (PS3) - Red Dead Redemption (PS3) - Guns of Boom (MP) - Sky Force Reloaded (MP) - ...

As well as these, theres Bit. trip complete and Rune factory: tides of destiny for Europeans.

@Waveboy I also hope that Nintendo is more imaginative for the next 2D Mario platformer. The level design is the best I've ever seen in a 2D platformer in NSMBW and the multi-player is so much fun but all the worlds had the same theme as its predecessor but in a different order so I hope we see differently themed worlds in the next 2D Mario platformer.

I declare the Wii as history after The Last Story. In retrospect it is quite amazing that a console like that endured amongst the other consoles. And I think that the American audience should get Xenoblade Chronicles too, because it's one of the best games I ever played, absolutely hands down...

With kind regards,

Agreed.
There doesn't appear to be much coming out on the Wii after The Last Story and Pandora's Tower unless Nintendo have a surprise or two up their sleeve.
But at least The Last Story has online modes so hopefully that should be fun for quite some time.
Hopefully North America get the three 'Operation Rainfall' games at some stage, especially Xenoblade Chronicles because it's a brilliant game and it's real shame if anyone has to miss out on playing it.
