The Conduit. Available Q1 2009. Cammie called this an “exclusive first-party shooter coming to Wii." We think she meant first-person shooter.
I think she means first person not first party. ---

Agent of Chaos Rep: 54Joined: 10 Aug 2005 Posts: 40,070 OFFLINE | Wii Music continues to look like a glorified noise-maker to us. However, we really think this game will go over like crazy with kids. ---

Agent of Chaos Rep: 54Joined: 10 Aug 2005 Posts: 40,070 OFFLINE | Sin & Punishment 2. Available 2009. The original game never made its way to North America — only became available as a download through Virtual Console.
“After we saw how many people downloaded it on the Virtual Console, we got the message that North America wants Sin & Punishment as well. In 2009 you’re going to be playing... and you’re not going to have to import it," says Cammie. We are happy.
Sweet SnP 2 is coming here as well. ---
