Nintendo has revealed the titles coming to Europe in 2008 for the Nintendo Wii and DS platforms. Super Smash Bros. Brawl is nowhere in sight, but Mario Kart Wii and other big video games are expected to ship next year.
Find the list at the full article!
Super Smash Bros. Brawl is missing from Nintendo’s line-up of games for 2008, but other than that, European gamers are in for a blast. Nintendo just sent out a list of release schedules for the Nintendo Wii and DS platforms, letting us in on what titles Europe can expect in the very near future.
No More Heroes, Zack and Wiki: Quest for Barbaros’ Treasure, and NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams headline Nintendo’s offerings for Europe in 2008. Even Mario Kart Wii is listed and expected to hit shelves come Q1 or Q2 2008, making it slightly difficult to fathom why the much anticipated Super Smash Bros. Brawl is not on the list.
Owners of the Nintendo handheld can look forward to Advance Wars: Dark Conflict and Ace Attorney: Apollo Justice. Two of Square Enix’ big DS titles this year, Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker and Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings, are also set to ship after this year ends. You can find the rest of the upcoming games below.
