Games of 2009: Wii

Here are some games that are coming out for the Wii in 2009. Not much to look at, but here it is.

- Dead Rising: Chop 'til You Drop (3/1/09) - A sequel to the Xbox 360 classic.

- MadWorld (3/12/09) - The first extremely bloody and violent Wii game since No More Heroes. Looks like Sin City and actually has some potential. It's a bit controversial, but it's one of the more exciting titles coming up for the Wii. Which brings us to our next amazing selection.

- Sonic and the Black Knight (3/12/09) - Ugh, this guy again. I thought we got rid of him after Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games. OK, let's look at the trailer.



No thanks!

- Ready 2 Rumble: Revolution (5/21/09) - Another Ready 2 Rumble game from the Dreamcast days. Those games were fun, but this one includes more celebrities. And hey, Michael Buffer's back, because nobody else in the history of the world can yell, "Let's get ready to rumble!"

- Ghostbusters (6/18/09) - This is actually a multi-platform game, but the Wii version is more cartoony and less realistic than the 360 and PS3 releases.

- Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time (TBD) - This one's pretty self-explanatory.

- Punch-Out!! Wii (TBD) - Possibly the most exciting title coming to the Wii, although I'm not holding my breath for this one to knock me off my feet. Here's a trailer.



- Sam & Max: Season Two (TBD) - Dog, rabbit, mystery, hilarity.

- Sin & Punishment 2 (TBD) - A pretty cool looking sequel to the Japan-only release.
