Wii U Launch Window is Four Months - Full Games List Here
The full, games list, of Wii U titles available 'at launch' for Nintendo's new console and controller is out and about. It's impressive, as is the newly defined "launch period".

We are told, via the list itself that: "Launch window is defined as the period beginning Nov. 18, 2012, and ending March 31, 2013." Yes indeed, four months.

We can't have a decent Wii U list of games without a quote from Reggie Fils-Aime, the Nintendo of America's president and COO though. Here he goes.

"We're making sure that Wii U owners will have great games to play from the moment they open the box, and that a steady stream of fun new games is always on the way.

"We have something for everyone, from new franchises to creative new approaches to familiar favourites."

Anyway, let's get to the list:

Interesting list although it's a shame the dates are so wide, would be good to know what's coming pre-Christmas.

It also looks like WiiU will get some of the AAA titles that the Wii missed out on, although some later than other systems, I wonder if the real fans will wait?

Also, I wonder if this will be kept up. It's nice that AC3, Batman and Mass Effect 3 are coming but if the Wii only gets bought and played by grannies and 8 year-olds then will such games continue to come?

Its true, the Wii had alot of 3rd party support at the start, launch titles like Call of Duty 3, Far Cry 2 and Need for Speed: Carbon. But I fear the Wii U will go down the same route.
