Nintendo reveals summer lineup, Metroid Prime 3 to hit stores August 20

Are you a casual gamer or a hardcore gamer? Do you like your games short, sweet, pick-up-and-play, or immersive and borderline masochistic? Whatever your answer, Nintendo’s got your fix, with an assorted summer lineup for the Nintendo DS and the Nintendo Wii that’s sure to satisfy any player, no matter how hard your core or casual your playstyle is.

What’s most exciting about the summer lineup? Let’s just take a look-see: Mario Strikers Charged, that’s for the Wii, available on July 30. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption‘s another highly anticipated title for the Wii, as well. Not sure about High School Musical: Sing It, though – cheery upbeat high school musical simulator?

For the Nintendo DS, it’s Brain Training 2 and Picross DS, both very good mind-sharpening games in their own right. Now who says that games rot your brain? They very well don’t! Of course, the third chapter in the ever-so-popular Phoenix Wright series – Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations – will be out in September. A very good summer indeed.

In any case, here’s the summer lineup. Mark your calendars!
