    My future purchases:
    14th – Super Paper Mario
    26th – Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
    16th – Super Mario Galaxy
    30th – Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles (if it comes with the Zapper)
    Rentals to possibly become purchases later on:
    12th – Spider-Man Friend or Foe
    12th – Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground
    9th – Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3
    Rentals for the hell of it:

    26th – My Horse and Me
    31th – Disney Princess
    9th – Endless Ocean
    23rd – Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games

    I guess this confirms that Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is coming out in October. I hate Nintendo so much right now.

    What’s the source for this?

    I also read a rumor about RedSteel 2 coming to UK this November or so..

    Man, what is wrong with Nintendo? Poor UK people, they get MP3 until October. :(

  • PaulT

    Those release dates look about right (October’s been confirmed for a few months now, MJ), though I thought Ratatouille was already out as I’ve been seeing TV ads for it in Spain. I think that Red Steel 2 was a rumour sparked by an over-optimistic placeholder date used by some UK retailers, I dount that it’s official.

    I think I’ll definitely be getting MP3, RE:UC, and Mario Galaxy. My anticipation for Super Paper Mario has been totally sunk by the long wait, so I think I’ll wait for a sale before I pick it up.

    By the way, if anyone who makes decisions for this site is listening, could we get some confirmed release dates by retailers other than GameStop. They have a store in Birmingham, but I don’t know of any others – GAME and GameStation are the market leaders over here along with the major general relailers. Maybe they’ll have some more accurate dtae rather than running stories every couple of weeks about the smaller guys?

    Well, PaulT, the thing is GameStation is big in Amaerica and for whatever reason are the only ones to actually let release dates slip.
    GAME = GameStation just for your info, GAME bought them up (is a shame).
    I know that was confirmed, but then people were telling me about it being pushed forward to September.
