Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn - Nov 5 -Three years have passed since the great war that ended in the death of Mad King Ashnard. His country of Daein suffers under the rule of the war's victors. Now, a small band of freedom fighters struggle to end the long, dark night of Daein's oppression. Micaiah, Sothe and a host of others -- the infamous "Dawn Brigade" -- rally under the banner of Daein's long-lost prince to bring a new day to this ravaged land.

The best-selling strategy title makes its Wii debut, with 16:9 widescreen support, newly added for the North American version, bringing a truly epic experience. Command the Dawn Brigade and learn the story of their struggle. Then, gain a new perspective by joining Ike and the Greil Mercenaries as they watch Daein's battles spread throughout all of Tellius. Players can shape their armies to suit their strategy by choosing from dozens of unique characters. Players can also build support relationships between their characters - as their relationships grow, so do their strengths as they fight together on the battlefield.

Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None - Nov 6 - And Then There Were None is the first title in a series of games based on the books from legendary mystery author, Agatha Christie.

On the island, they are cut off from everything but each other and the inescapable shadows of their own past lives. One by one, the guests share the darkest secrets of their wicked pasts. And one by one, they die...

Agatha Christie fans, and newcomers to the genre, can look forward to a series of unexpected turns; although the storyline stays true to the original concept, players will encounter new plot twists.

OMG! a hannah montanna game! my life is complete.

jk im not getting any of these. maybe cabellas but theres no info on it... so probably not a good game.
 
I'm not gonna get any of these allthough there are some good ones coming out such as Fire Emblem and Mario&Sonic at the Olympics...
 
I'm thinking of Fire Emblem, but I need to see more videos or a review on it before I decide. The combat I've seen so far from it looks boring. Not the fact that it's turn-based, it's more that the attacks don't look very spectacular in general. If it's going to be turn-based, it needs to have some flash to the attacks, since you're just going to be watching them unfold automatically.

I want an RPG to play badly for the Wii, but I'm not sold on Code Lyoco. I haven't seen the show, so it won't be to rely just on that alone - in my case at least.
 
thanks for the info, i belive mario and sonic olympics thingy isnt gonna sell very good, due to the lack of hype
 
I am looking forward to Fire Emblem.
Should be a killer game.

The rest don't attract my interest as much, although Hannah Montanna is seeming rather inviting. :lol:
 
Once again, only one game seems to jump out at me and that game is Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. I can't wait for the European release.
 
I don't know what to expect from Mario and Sonic. Probably won't get this, but I will read the review nevertheless.
