Seriously, we all know by now that there aren't any good games out for the Wii in '09.
Sadly I'm not even being sarcastic.

Punch Out is ace along with the many horror/adventure titles coming out for the wii...good times to be a horror fan.
Also the samurai game with the long name is looking really good.
Bless

MadWorld
Little King's Story(I'd quite excited for this after IGN and MacRumorsUser's suggestion)
The Conduit
PunchOut
Red Steel 2(It seemed to me Red Steel one had a lot of room to grow)
Wii Sports Resort
Castlevania Judgment
Not quite as good as last year, but still some cool stuff! And hopefully E3 is mean more to come!
Here's the games I'm buying, that weren't listed in Zap2's post:
Monster Hunter 3 -- if it comes state side.
Muramasa: The Demon Blade
Spyborgs -- I bought a console for CONSOLE games, and this is clearly a CONSOLE game.
Sin and Punishment 2
Wii Sports resorts
There's also Silent Hill Shattered memories -- it's actually looking good and I think it's coming out this year?.
Dead Space: Extraction is even shaping up. *freaking rails, grumbles* If I buy this game I'm screwed, as they'll probably turn around and offer up more "SOCIAL" games. If I don't, I imagine they'll state some naive spew about how there are no core gamers on the Wii. *LAME* But I'M NOT BUYING THE NEW RAIL VOMIT FROM CAPCOM!!! When it comes down to it, this is similar to DS:E, but then again, at least DS:E's production value is good, which is obvious. Capcom on the other hand has been rather cheap when it comes to the Wii -- but at least Spyborgs is looking good.
And I'm not buying Red Steel 2, unless you guys LOVE it, well unless everyone raves about it. UbiSoft is on my vomit-list. Their casual crap is everywhere now, not just the Wii. All they've done is dumped shovelware on Ninentendo's platforms and their latest core games for all other platforms are really just casual games masquerading as core games.
Anyways, if you look at the developers, many have shifted towards the Wii, just like they did for the PS2 after a couple of years when it was clear it was the leader. It also helps that the dev cost is lower than the rest. These things don't happen over night, but it was worse this time around with so much juvenile FUD against the Wii.

Shouldn't wii start a 2009 Wii Recommendations thread?
Anyway, Muramasa: The Demon Blade has me hot and bothered. Red Steal 2 also sounds exciting. 1:1 finally!
