As well as providing us with some top DVD, Blu-Ray and gaming entertainment this Bank Holiday, high street rental chain Blockbuster U.K has thrown us what could be the first twenty five titles for the upcoming Nintendo Wii U – long before the games are due for official announcement at next month’s E3 conference on June 5th to 7th in Los Angeles.
GoNintendo website managed to obtain – and of course expose publically via the internet – screen shots from Blockbuster’s database which shows a search for “WIIU” with items listed relating to that search including popular names such as Super Mario Brothers Wii, Batman: Arkham City and Aliens: Colonial Marines.
The latter mentioned pair of games were never released on the classic Wii console but the new Wii U, which is set to be officially revealed as a finished product in just a few weeks, is said to be able to handle the graphic requirements of these titles and a number of others on the list which were previous contained to higher function systems such as Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.
After seeing the list we’re a bit more inspired about what Nintendo’s next home console offering will deliver to the gaming market. We still need a little more convincing about the HD tablet controller, which despite its innovative design and a few cool features such as panoramic gaming view is restricted to a single player neglecting the Wii’s appeal as a fun experience for family and friends.
But criticisms aside, and without further ado, those games listed on the Blockbuster database are:
Aliens: Colonial Marines
Assassin’s Creed
Batman: Arkham City
Darksiders II
Dirt 3
Formula 1 All Stars
Game Party
Ghost Recon Online
Just Dance 4
Killer Freaks from Outer Space
Marvel Super Heroes
Metro: Last Light
Monsters Party

Ninja Gaiden 3
Pikmin
Rabbids Party Land
Raving Rabbids
Rayman Legends
Shield Pose
Splinter Cell 5
