A three-day media event starting on Feb. 24, 2010 provided updates on upcoming Nintendo games for the Wii and DS. The Nintendo World Summit event revealed the release dates of Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Metroid: Other M while showcasing other future titles like Monster Hunter 3 and Sin and Punishment 2.

Noteworthy Releases, Anniversaries

A few mildly interesting patterns for the late weeks of February. Both Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare and its sequel released in the same week but two years apart. The same is the case for Killzone 2 and Killzone 3, both releasing this week in 2009 and 2011 respectively.

The graffiti-spraying, inline skating action game Jet Set Radio Future released this week on the Xbox back in 2002. Although it's a sequel to Jet Set Radio from 2000, the series never saw another entry.
