It's gearing up to be one of the coldest winters in recent memory, and there's only one way to deal with weather like that; sit inside and play video games. Nintendo is aiming to make that as easy a time as possible by releasing a whole slew of brand new games for the DS, DSi, and Wii. Here are the fall and holiday titles that I think are going to sell like hotcakes;

For the full game list, you'll want to check out Nintendo's press release. They've got an enormous line-up this year, and these are just the biggest names to look out for...

Wii:

First off, for the Wii; NBA 2K10 will launch on October 6th. For those of you who want to take on a different musical roll, Activision's DJ Hero is set to hit on Oct. 27th. Band Hero will hit next in November, and Guitar Hero: Van Halen is prepped for a December 22nd release. If shooting people attracts you more than playing music, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is expected for November 10th.

Dead Space: Extraction is also Wii bound this winter, it'll be in stores on September 29th. Spore Hero, also from EA, will be out on October 6th. Star Wars The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes will come to stores on the same day. Lego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure continues is bound for sometime this fall.

The most exciting new Wii game this year has to be New Super Mario Bros, only given a vague "holiday" release date. Right next to the new Mario Bros game in anticipated awesomeness is Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers, due out on Christmas day, 2009.
