This is definitely going to be a great year. And an expensive one. I'm actually really happy to own all the current generation consoles for once.

My list is pretty much Crabby's + Pam's.

Persona 5                              (although I suspect an English version won't be available until 2017)
Final Fantasy XV      
Megaman Legacy Collection    (waiting confirmation for physical release)
Mighty No. 9
Ikenie to Yuki no Setsuna        (Due out in Japan next month for PSV and PS4. Not sure of Western physical release)
World of Final Fantasy             (Final Fantasy + Vita, so yeah I am interested)


EDIT:
Final Fantasy XV is currently set for release 30 Sep 2016 in US/PAL.
Ikenie to Yuki no Setsuna will get a US release around the same time under the title, "I Am Setsuna".  PS4 only (no Vita :( ), no other details as of yet.

EDIT:
Persona 5 has been confirmed for Feb 2017
I am Setsuna has been released but is digital only.  The raw hatred I feel for Square Enix at this exact moment is palpable.

Mega Man Legacy has been confirmed physical for 3ds. Bundle with Gold Mega Man Amiibo too!

I wish there was a Wii U release. :(

I hope I'm wrong about Persona 5 (I've been waiting since 2010), but it's a real possibility. The Japanese release is currently set for Q3 this year and typically there is a 4-6 month wait for the North American version of Atlus games (and another 3-4 for PAL territories).

As for Mega Man Legacy, I am looking for the PS4 version.  I just got confirmation from Play-Asia that the HK version due next month is a physical release, but I don't know about other regions.

I wish there was a Wii U release. :(

As the owner of 2 Mega Man amiibo, a Wii U version would have been tempting.

How about:

Doom
Uncharted A Thieves Tale

@shaggy: Why doesn't Nintendo Wii U have a Mega Man game? They could release a whole bunch of amiibos dedicated to the game. Such as the robot masters, Doctor Light, Wily, etc. I don't own any amiibos or a Wii U but I might be inclined to get one if they did something like that.

Dark Souls 3

The Legends of Owlia - My most wanted game right now.

Persona V ... although I fear it may be delayed.

Cuphead

Nintendo NX

Crackdown 3

Eitr

Mirror's Edge 2

It came from the Desert - this may be vaporware .... we'll see if Watermelon/Cinemaware can deliver.

Every time I turn around I hear of new 2016 release dates that I didn't see coming.

Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma is reported to be coming out June 30 for both Vita and 3DS in both Japan and the US. 

Also, Tokyo Mirage #FE.

Mega Man Legacy
Dragon Quest VII (PLEEEASE!)
No Man's Sky

Trust me, three new games in a year is a lot for me.
