Nintendo Dates The Big Three (new trailers too)

Topics: , , , , , , ,
Super Mario Galaxy At yesterday's press conference, Nintendo officially announced release dates for two of the "big three" Wii franchises. Super Mario Galaxy releases on November 12, 2007, while Super Smash Bros. Brawl releases on December 3, 2007. Since Metroid Prime 3: Corruption's date was announced a few weeks back as August 27, that means that the big three are finally dated for the North American market.

In addition to the dates, Nintendo also released trailers for Galaxy and Corruption. The Galaxy trailer clearly shows the ability to transform into other creatures, like bees and Boos, and the Corruption one shows the traditional new enemies and such along with a scene from the Ridley fight. View the new Galaxy and Corruption footage here and here, respectively.

Yep, Vampt Vo is finally back from his vacation to the wonderful country of Italy. I hope you all didn't miss me too much. It seems that I've missed quite a bit of news, so I'll overview it for you.
  • Gamespot sat down to play Geometry Wars: Galaxies on Wii and DS, and found that the game is very impressive, and allows for DS-to-DS and (more importantly) Wii-to-DS demo sharing.
  • The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass releases on October 1st.
  • At AnimeEXPO, FUNimation announces distribution rights to Darker than Black, while Geneon gets Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha and Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's. Media Blasters announces distribution of the Genshiken OVA and Kujibiki Unbalance.
  • Metroid Prime 3 has no online play, according to Retro Studios, and it has been delayed to an August 27th, 2007 release date.
  • I missed a ton of SSB Dojo news, but I'll get that up soon.

On the personal end of things, this week is going to be absolutely amazing. Haruhi Volume 1 is here and waiting to be watched, while Volume 2 is on its way. AnimeNEXT us right around the corner, and with three days worth of tickets, it's sure to be fun. Oh yeah, and happy 4th of July to you Americans.
