I wanted to make a calendar of game release dates in 2009 (so I won’t forget), but apparently details are sparse. The only games that I’m remotely interested in that already have release dates are:
20 Jan 2009:
- Mana Khemia: Student Alliance (PSP)
- Star Ocean: Second Evolution (PSP)
17 Feb 2009:
- Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride (NDS)
- Street Fighter IV (PS3)
17 Mar 2009:
- Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume (NDS)
Unknown Release dates (2009):
- Dragon Quest IX (NDS)
- Suikoden Tierkreis (NDS)
- Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon (First Half 2009) (NDS)
- GTA: Chinatown Wars (NDS)
- Puzzle Quest: Galactrix (1Q 2009) (NDS)
- Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time (Spring 2009) (NDS)
- White Knight Chronicles (PS3)
Pretty slim pickings, but it’s probably a blessing in disguise, considering how much backlog I have. The following are games I still want to finish from 2008 or earlier:
- Jeanne d’Arc (PSP)
- Final Fantasy: Crisis Core (PSP)
- Chrono Trigger (NDS) I’m very close on this one!
- Professor Layton and the Curious Village (NDS) Yes, I’ll finish this, hopefully soon!
- Disgaea 3 (PS3)
- Final Fantasy IV (NDS)
- Dragon Quest IV (NDS)
- Castlevania: Order of Eclessia (NDS) Just started playing it last night
- The World Ends With You (NDS)
- Yggdra Union (PSP)
Wishlist for games to be announced in 2009:
- Remake of Lufia 2
- More PS2 remakes on the PSP, specifically Dragon Quarter
- US releases for Disgaea 2 (PSP), Tales of Heart (NDS), Tales of Innocence (NDS)
- More PS3 RPGs
