Nintendo details Euro Q1 releases

The 26 Wii games Nintendo expects to ship in the first quarter of 2007 include WarioWare: Smooth Moves on January 12, Excite Truck on February 16, Kororinpa on February 23, and Mario Party 8 in March.
The Nintendo DS will be getting a massive 67 titles added to its European library over the first three months of next year, including Children of Mana on January 12, Star Fox Command on January 26, Actionloop on January 26, and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Justice for All, as yet undated but due sometime in the first quarter.

BTW does ne1 have news on the release of Smash bros brawl???? totally.tim@hotmail.com, send me ne info if u hav ne kk. PLease
I agree with captainwonton, except warioware that game is freaking awesome! Heatseeker looks decent aswell but meh not the best tilt, which is the best part of the wii.
what the??? you give it a "POOR"???? no more in you guys. How can you say that it's a flaw not having minigames? it's TENNIS, it doens't need them. if it needed them it would be because it was a bad game which is not. getting fed up with some reviews in this site.
sh*t! not interested in any of these games!, perhaps mario party 8...and that's about it!
is that it, i heard there was loads of good games coming out, where are they.
Wow no word on Super Smash Bros. Brawl for Europe. The only thing I know is that it could come out on Q2 for U.S. It would suck if it was delayed.
Wheres Mario Galaxy? That was supposed to be a launch title and it's not even in Q1 for next year... very disapionting. But apart from that the line up is good, hopefully Q2 brings even more cool games like these. hopfully even better(er)
[This message was deleted at the request of a moderator or administrator]
I wonder when Trauma Centre is coming out...
Blimey, you never realise the vast amount of games to be released until you see them listed. Good show.
Man, they're all either going to be ridicuously addictive, or pathetic ports.
Hey , I live in Belgium and I buy my DS games on ebay. Those American titles work fine on my DS
That's a sorry Wii lineup.
Nice early wario ware! But a bit of a slow Wii release schedule (and where's mario and metroid?) Still no news on metroid prime pinball either...
Could use some better wii games.
no UK release date for pokemon for the wii or ds =[
It's all looking good.
i wish they told all the VC titles as well
Woohoo, a mass of games (with quite a few good selectable titles :D). But where is FF3 (yeah I know loads of people have said it, but it don't change the fact I want it!)
LOTS of games wonder if theme park will be as fun as roller coaster tycoon...
looks like if you got a wii, your good to go
I could care less about Euro release dates. Bring on the US dates.
Man, when is FF3 going to be released.
lots of games but nothing really really great.. hope they start releasing more n64 games on the vc during the same period.
brazillian people access GameSpot too!! I like Nintendo, but I prefer games that have a deep story, action, mystery, like MSG, Gears Of War, RE, Halo, FF and others, and looks like Nintendo's more worry at doing games just for fun, like sports, music-games and minigames... The games list that sanderuli wrote is good, but I think they're too many few for a year
I was expecting a better list of games for the wii. Warioware looks pretty cool. Mario party 8 will prob be just like the other 7 versions. I am waiting for the new mario game.
wow, look at all those releases coming up....too bad i don't have a wii or ds.
Import guys, it's often cheaper! Someone mentioned play-asia.com - top shop!
m3 WANT SUPER SMASH BROS BRAWL!!!!! m3 too!
mario partee 8!
warioware...i wanna see how that does
Interesting games of all..
I WANT SUPER SMASH BROS BRAWL!!!!!
Still no date for FF3, Phoenix Wright 2 or Elite Beat Agents?. I hope Nintendo aren't going to abandon EU 'gamers' completely in their quest to appeal to the masses. It's bad enough I just spent Ł200 on a Wii and there's only 2 games announced so far worth getting! (Zelda & Wario). I guess if your in the EU then Play-Asia is the way to go.
Ummm okay ... WHERE IS FFIII !!!! I WANT FFIII .....
...so wait, its a UK article... ..interesting
To mysticGenie in US Sonic and PRince of Persia both great third party games come out in the first quarter
didn't excite truck already get released?
wow Sonic and the Secret Rings on Nintendo Wii is coming March 2007 man I better start to get the Nintendo Wii system soon so I can play the game when I buy it
love nintendo
interesting...
soo many games, but this list was release a week earlier
Elite Beat Agents isn't on the list... It's not on the list.... IT'S NOT ON THE LIST! Oh no, what am I to do. :P
i'm so glad i'm from N. America and dont get shafted with releases...sry UK, you guys should riot or something...
Mario Party 8 should be amazing for the Wii. Can't wait to see some of those minigames.
Color me unimpressed with the Wii lineup. There's not a single high-profile third-party game that really stands out and to be honest, the Xbox 360 lineup blows it out of the water. Unless Nintendo get its act together, the Wii will be a repeat performance of the Gamecube.
no Metroid or Mario Galaxy on the list
It's on the PC where US gamers get a dull lineup compared to them. Sega in particular has done that recently. Crazy Taxi 3, Billy Hatcher, Sonic Adventure DX, Sonic Mega Collection Plus... Not to mention a different publisher released Guilty Gear X2 #Reload there. Although it wasn't sold here or Europe, Mega Man X8 for PC has both English mode and controller rumble which is rarely offered on that platform. It's in fact one of the greatest conversions from a console ever made. I feel sorry for DS owners over in those countries though. Why would Actionloop or whatever they call it in that region take so long to translate? I can understand the amount of text for Children of Mana or Pokemon Ranger being an issue, but a puzzle game? Wow, and to think Polarium Advance which was from the same developer and genre came out there nearly 6 months before US shelves.
W00T Mario Party 8 has a realese date W00T
I wounder how those dates will reflect on the US dates because some of those games are out here.
