Gaming Forecast - May 2009

The first of May is here and with it comes another monthly dose of the Gaming Forecast feature.

Gaming Forecast May 2009
  • X-Men Origins: Wolverine (Wii and DS, May 1st)
  • New Play Control! Donkey Kong Jungle Beat (Wii, May 4th)
  • Klonoa (Wii, May 5th)
  • Puzzle Kingdoms (DS, May 5th and Wii, May 12th)
  • Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus (Wii, May 12th)
  • Black Sigil: Blade of the Exiled (DS, May 12th)
  • C.O.R.E. (DS, May 12th)
  • Punch-Out!! (Wii, May 18th)
  • Boom Blox Bash Party (Wii, May 19th)
  • EA Sports Active (Wii, May 19th)
  • Rock Band Track Pack: Classic Rock (Wii, May 19th)
  • Steal Princess (DS, May 19th)
  • Personal Trainer: Walking (DS, May 25th)
The Wii had a pretty good month this month, with big games like Punch-Out!!, Klonoa, and the almost guaranteed to sell EA Sports Active. The DS was a bit light this month, though Nintendo's Personal Trainer: Walking could be a popular choice among the "expanded audience."

Of the games I want, there's my highly anticipated Punch-Out!! and the beautiful remake Klonoa, which are must buys for me. And later on down the road, maybe when my wallet's not hurting so much, I'll have to check out Boom Blox Bash Party (loved the original) and New Play Control! Donkey Kong Jungle Beat (never played the original).

What about you my dear reader? Are you going to relive some nolstagic Punch-Out!! fun? Or are you saving your money for a month with more worthwhile handheld games?

    I already got and beat Klonoa completely, but I also want Jungle Beat, Punch Out, and Boom Blox.

    Probably won't get 'em all though. I have other games I should play first. Jungle Beat is a definite buy though.

    For May, I'm all about Punch-Out!! and then Space Invaders Extreme for XBLA.

    Next month, however, I am getting both Wii and 360 versions of Ghostbusters. I'm so hyped for that game, it's stupid.

    I'll definitely at least rent punch-out; but I'd want to rent or read reviews before I buy. No guarantee that it will be as good as previous games in the series.
