Nintendo teases Wii release lineup for 2009

The list, however partial, is kind of a punch in the gut (click for more Punch Out screens)

The release list was auspiciously obtained by Kotaku on Friday, and contains several key games and dates for North American gamers. Notable titles include:

Wii Sports Resort, Nintendo - 2009
Punch Out!!, Nintendo - 1st half 2009
Sin and Punishment 2, Nintendo - 2009
Mario Tennis (GameCube Port), Nintendo - TBA
Pikmin (GameCube port), Nintendo - TBA, Sim Animals, EA - 1/27/09
Tenchu 4, Ubisoft - Early 2009

And there are still a few other Wii games to sooth your gamer self this year, including Quantum of Solace on Nov. 4, Call of Duty: World at War and Star Wars: The Clone Wars on Nov. 11, and Animal Crossing: City Folk with Shaun White Snowboarding on Nov. 16.

Anything catch your eye?

Gamecube port for Mario Tennis???? WTF? They're not making a new one? Well, if it's like Sluggers, might as well port it from the cube.

Pikmin is really just going to be a port?? Wow... I'll probably still get it since it would be about the same price as getting a copy of the Gamecube version in good condition, but hopefully they at least sharpen up the graphics a little XD

For Pikmin and Tennis, might as well try to find the GC version in a bargain bin somewhere. This is a new low for Nintendo.

Where's The Conduit? That and Punch-Out will make 2009 bearable... but just barely.

I agree with Toneman, Nintendo is killing itself off with lists like this. I want more like what we saw in 2007...

Ever notice that when there's an article like this, and we get a true answer like ddiddy415 posted, that voice of wii-son hides. Pretendo HAS ABANDONED gamers.
There is a reason Pretendo markets to kids and old folks: They aren't very game savvy.
