When Nintendo announced its launching some 124 titles for its most beloved consoles (the Wii and DS), no one could believe their ears. Some were skeptical about it (myself included) and said that some of them will surely be Virtual Console games. Guess not. Nintendo's rolling out la crème de la crème with this newly announced lineup. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is among the titles.

Although this isn't by far the complete lineup for Nintendo's year, here's what the company has announced so far (for the summer holiday), as NextGeneration reports:

It's the 1001st time I'm saying this, but I just have to: Can Nintendo ever miss? They've got it all going on:

- great household console (Wii) with a revolutionary control system that has thrown the world into a Wiimote frenzy
- great handheld (DS) which sells more than Nintendo can even produce
- irreproachable customer service, treating broken Wiis like dying patients.

Hope you have a great summer.
