Really? Mario doesn't look too fantastic to me... maybe a visit to IGN to check it out is in order...

I'm only mildly interested in Mario and Zelda. I'm very excited by Wii:rolleyes: Sports, because I think it will show off the potential of the Wii:rolleyes: Mote better than any early title.

I voted for Zelda but wasn't sure if that was accurate... it's a GameCube game for pity sake... and hearing that you won't actually "swing" the sword makes me wonder if I really want the Wii version.

Plus, I've also heard aiming is laggy on the Wii by about 1/4 second in ANY piece of software using the 3D pointing. That junk about you actually aim at the sensor bar and not the screen, essentially meaning you are just "guiding" a cursor and not actually pointing where you aim... color me skeptical regarding the "revolution" thanks to that info...

Now I just have to wait to demo the system, see if all that is true... and if it is I will be VERY disappointed!

I voted for mario, but hell I'll be getting all of those titles on that list except wii music (which i believed was just a tech demo)

Disaster: Day of Crisis because it is a really interesting new concept for a game. I need something different.

i voted mario because i could settle for Zelda on the GC if i had to choose. It was quite tough though ;)

There will be seperate GC and Wii version of Twilight Princess. Also, I was disappointed at first as well hearing that the remote wouldn't swing the sword, but I was satisfied yesterday when watching the demonstration of the game at E3. The movement of the remote will modify which sword technique Link uses. For example, a little flick of the wrist while pressing the attack button will do a short jab. A different movement will let Link smack the enemy with his shield.

For me, it's a no brainer. Zelda. Though Mario Galaxy just inches behind.

Mario easily. Anyone who knows me knows I am a Mario nut. I own everything vaguely mario related for every system I won :p

It'll be Mario for me. Though I'm a huge fan of Zelda but I must say, I'm impressed with the Mario trailers i've seen so far...

I plan to buy Zelda, Metroid, Mario, all the Wii games (Sports, Music, etc), and *maybe* Excite Truck and WarioWare on release day.

However, having played most of them, I can honestly say that I am most excited about Zelda. But Mario and Metroid look incredible.

I voted for "Metorid Prime 3 Corruption" even if it's supposed to be "Metroid Prime 3 Corruption (http://wii.nintendo.com/games_metroid.html)">". ;)

If my brother gets a Wii, however, I expect us to play a lot of Excite Truck via the net...

I voted Zelda but I'll probably end up getting most of those games anyways except Excite Truck.

I need to know more about HAMMER and Day of Disaster (like read soem reviews and watch some trailers). Wii music. . . maybe later if it's cheaper.

never under-estimate the power of Excite Truck...;)

Yeah, I forgot SSBB. And I spelled Metroid wrong. I usually spell about one word wrong every year, so now I must be really careful until 2007. :o

Close between Super Mario and Metroid Prime.. I chose Mario. :P

Mario, Metroid, and Zelda. I need all three.

RIGHT NOW.

it would literally be down to the flip of a coin for me between zelda and metroid.

Out of my whole collection of games (rather large), my 4 favorites easily have got to be zelda: ocarina of time, zelda: majora's mask, metroid prime, and metroid prime 2: echoes.

I can't vote :o

Agreed. This game will be amazing.

Smash Bros Brawl (or is it Dojo now?) is not a launch title. It may appear in the launch window - making it a launch title in the UK/Austrailia like the original Melee.

Neither is Super Mario Galaxy, or (IIRC) Project HAMMER.

Metriod Prime 3 for me. i love the series.

Another vote for Metroid Prime 3......
I'm sure Zelda TP will be a better game but I am a Metroid fan above all other game franchises and always look forward to these more than any other games on any console of any generation.

The Zelda game.
I'm a very big LoZ fan, in fact, it is the only thing that I cannot directly say I like less than Macs. Yes, I'm so shallow...

Woo hoo! I was the first Warioware voter!

I've always liked the Warioware games. They are very simple of course but the show off the control potential of a system. They had a gyroscopic Warioware for the GBA, a touch screen one for the DS, and now we'll be seeing one that uses the Wiimote. It should be a game that gives you an overall feeling of what the control scheme is capable of.

Release day of Mario, not of the Wii :D

Zelda, of course. I also want a game that you don't have on your list, Call of Duty 3.

I'll most likely pick-up Zelda and CoD3 as soon as possible. I'll probably look at the reviews on the other titles before deciding.

Zelda... I've been waiting too long for this game.:eek:

Ditto. I was looking forward to TP last November. But now I'm glad that it's not out yet as it looks like they've done some amazing additions to the Wii version's graphics (Colored haze in the twilight world rather than B/W.).

I was certain the restyling of the twilight area applied to the GameCube version as well, although it is true it may not have happened if they had tried to release the game earlier.
