Major music labels are happy to re-release re-mastered
classic albums, year after year. Video game publishers, by
contrast, focus on issuing new games. But in 2009, Nintendo
hasn't been doing that, as the full-year release lists now
make clear.
The impending release of Wii Fit Plus in two weeks
(Amazon.com: http://xrl.us/WiiFitPlus ) is the latest in an
atypical 2009 publishing pattern for Nintendo, one of the

through download services, Nintendo continues to issue many

(Belfast Telegraph) - The original Metroid Prime was a
landmark title when it hit the stores back in 2002.
Released on Nintendo's Gamecube console, it was a sublime
combination of a first-person-shooter, space exploration
and puzzle game. The fact that this Wii release
(Amazon.com: http://tinyurl.com/MPT-Amazon ) contains an
updated version of this classic plus Prime 2 and 3 - both
great games in their own right - makes this an essential
purchase..
