This is pretty old stuff but Keroro Online is in the works. There is a movie and some screenshots available at 4gamer.net. The article at 4gamer only covers the online action Keroro game, but according to Gametime, an RPG version is also in the works.
Studio SiestA, known for their work on Airrade, has announced a new title, Vallstray no Kisen. They haven’t revealed any details about what the game is about, but the title sounds like a shooter. They haven’t even finished Trouble Witches yet and they’re already announcing a new game!

The latest issue of Manga Time Kirara has announced that Doujin Work will be made into an anime. Doujin Work is the most wonderful manga about doujinshi you will ever see. It is also full of dirty jokes that are not suitable for TV. Hopefully there will be a miracle and it will retain the magic of the original work.
2006 has been pretty bad compared to previous years in terms of sales, mainly because of the lack of big name titles from the big companies like Key, Leaf and Type-moon. While the other releases such as ef - the first tale and Scarlett did not do as well as expected.
Many regard this year as a pretty dry year in terms of good eroge releases. Though there was the legendary 2gb downloadable patch that was released for Summer Days… a few days before the actual game was released.
