Unlikely. More likely to be "Atari" with one of their franchises....... Driver Parallel Wii Lines anyone?

Driver hasn't really been good since the first game though, so would that really be a good thing?

Somehow I'm not able to view the youtube-videos where you see the big playbutton in the middle of the screen, it just says "loading" forever and ever.

No problems with regular youtube, though...

Driver 4 (Parallel Lines) got better reviews than Driv3r. But that wasn't difficult. It's just that I saw an Atari press release stating they would be bringing games to the Wii, added 2 and 2 and got 5...

Dunno, I read something that Atari sold the developers of Driver recently...

Yeah Metal Slug as a launch title? Nintendo now own me (well the bits I haven't already pledged to SNK)

If they keep it that way I think Wii is going to be the 2D shrine of the next gen. Sony vetoed 2D on PS2 already. MS is on a better track with XBLA although time will tell if they'll accept high budget 2D games in it.

"Launch", or "launch window" (first few months)... some of those games will probably not be out at the actual console launch, but with the convenient invention of "launch windows", they're all launch games anyway!

... the ones that don't get delayed to next year, that is. I expect that some of those titles won't make launch... FFCC, launch? But we know nothing about it... just doesn't seem likely...

Dunno, I read something that Atari sold the developers of Driver recently...

Hmm, yeah, that does sound familiar, though I forget who they sold it to...

Metal Slug Collection is my #2 most wanted Wii game after Zelda...

I certainly hope those games arnt all for launch, I cant afford that lot

Zelda, Metroid,Monkey Ball and FFCC are all must haves for me.

Rayman, Red Steel , Elebits and Truma Center I also want, but will wait for reviews too see which.

Rumor is Metroid isn't going to make launch, more for marketing that development reasons. From the latest IGN Wii podcast.

Makes perfect sense - it needs to have its own day in the sun. Look how terribly MP2 sold. Putting 3 up against Zelda would be stupid. I say wait a couple months till the drought hits, and I think that's what they'll do.
