Nintendo News | Sega European Releases [news]

A European release in November for Wii eh? Seems right.

I am less than impressed.

A dissapointing selection of multiformat titles that could really have made apperances on Nintendo console

I agree, They should have made a Phantasy Star for the Wii along with: Virtua Tennis 3, SEGA Rally and Virtua Fighter 5.

I would love a SEGA Rally on Wii and Pantasy Star will actually be online.

I don't mind seeing Playstation exclusives or Xbox exclusives, fine. But when a title hits both, and non Nintendo, I really do wonder why.

They're not "gory" or "sexual", the main reason developers usually say no, *sigh*.

I don't think it should matter if they are gory or sexual now for the fact that Nintendo is trying to get gamers of all ages involved and also the new ratings system on the Wii which blocks these games from younger children removes the problem. The developers have no excuses.

Yeah, I really don't know what's going on here. Games like Phantasy Star Universe would be perfect on a Nintendo console, but instead it's released on the other 2

There games are the biggest load of balls anyway the only game i might buy is Monkey Ball although i ahve heard albeit from SEGA fans that Golden Axe is good

Considering Sports Interactive has said it would like to work on Nintendo systems in the past, I'm surprised FM isn't announced for either the DS or Wii...

Dammit SEGA!! Why are you putting Nintendo to one side like that!? You know we want ALL THOSE GAMES!!!

More than anything I can't believe we won't even get a port of the MegaDrive collection! What's up with SEGA & Nintendo at the moment? One minute they were rolling around in flower fields together!

EDIT: SEGA prolly really underrestimate Ninteno now, becuase they supported the GC & didn't get much out of it, & most of their titles now will be online, & they think "Nintendo can't pull off online gaming! We tried to help them do it back in the day, but NOOOO"

SEGA are too proud to give the Wii a shot, sorry, but it's true! & I am really disappointed in them

Outrun 2006 has been out on PSP and PS2 for months already, and so have loads of other games on there.

Most of the titles on the Megadrive-Collections will be available on Virtual Console I think.

But why they have that much ps3-and-x360-but-not-wii-games... that's something I can't accept.
Hell, yeah, maybe they had these planned before Wii was turning out so smashing, but these games are all doable on Wii.
Virtua Fighter and Fantasy Star would be great on Wii. I do not play sporting games, but they can't hold all back from Wii. That's not fair.

yeah, jb, right: Why being exclusive to 2 consoles? that's not reasonable!

Yes, it is. The Ps3 and the 360 have comparable controls and power. Its obvious to port between those 2.

-not directed at Laurelin, I think-
You all seem very happy to call the 360 boring or whatever because its 'the same as the xbox', but then you moan when you don't get its games?

Sonic The Hedgehog on Wii

It might be a graphical thing, SEGA have got some pretty powerful looking games in that line-up, & downgrading a game may not be worth it, although I see ALL of these games selling tons better on Wii.

ESPECIALLY SONIC THE HEDGEHOG

Oookay... deep breaths...

But the games would do so well on Wii!

Everything with a star means that they are being released on budget. Thing is, Sonic Riders, Shadow and Spartan have all been cut-priced by stores anyway a LONG time ago!

I think i would have been more concerned if it was Ubi, Sonic and Monkey ball are enough for me and i think since it's just the beginning of the console's life cycle we should expect a little less than what they are giving us now.
The only reason they have put some of the games on the PS3 (which are also on the 360)is because the 360 and PS3 are a little similar to develop for and every dveloper wants to make money and not lose money so two systems would be a good idea for them (but is it?)

So Sonic Wil I mean Secret Rings is no longer a launch?

It wasn't planned to be, I don't think...it'll more likely be a 'launch window' game, so in the first 4-6 months (same as Smash Bros).

Yeah, Sonic Secret of the Rings was never intended to be a launch title, & March 2007 has always been the suspected release. I think SSBB might be around March aswell
