Although not confirmed, Wedbush Morgan Securities, a leading financial services and investment firm, have produced a list of aniticipated titles available for the Wii at it's launch. I think it's more likely that we'll seem them all by the end of the year, not actually at launch. The list of games is as follows, and is accompanied by the predicted sales of each game where given:

  • Wii Sports (bundled with hardware) - Nintendo
  • The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - Nintendo
  • Excite Truck - Nintendo
  • Call of Duty 3 - Activision (200,000)
  • Marvel: Ultimate Alliance - Activision (200,000)
  • Rapala Tournament Fishing - Activision (50,000)
  • Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam - Activision (300,000)
  • World Series of Poker - Activision (50,000)
  • Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 - Atari (200,000)
  • Trauma Center: Second Opinion - Atlus
  • Madden NFL 07 - Electronic Arts (500,000)
  • Need for Speed: Carbon - Electronic Arts (500,000)
  • Elebits - Konami
  • The Ant Bully - Midway m (100,000)
  • The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy- Midway (50,000)
  • Happy Feet- Midway (100,000)
  • Rampage: Total Destruction - Midway (50,000)
  • Avatar: The Last Airbender - THQ (200,000)
  • The Barnyard - THQ (200,000)
  • Disney's/Pixar's Cars - THQ (300,000)
  • SpongeBob SquarePants: Creature from the Krusty Krab - THQ (300,000)
  • Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII - Ubisoft
  • Far Cry: Vengeance - Ubisoft
  • GT Pro Series - Ubisoft
  • Monster 4x4: World Circuit - Ubisoft
  • Open Season - Ubisoft
  • Prince of Persia - Ubisoft
  • Rayman Raving Rabbids - Ubisoft
  • Red Steel - Ubisoft
  • Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent Ubisoft

That is a lot of games - should be something there for everyone! Although I can discount several of those straight away (and it's known that Ubisoft are releasing Prince of Persia next year), I guess I better start saving...

I can't help but notice what Midway and THQ are throwing at the Wii. Especially next to Activision and Ubisoft. I can't help but predict mediocre performance of those titles which, if some publishers treatment of the GCN are any indication, would lead to them blaming the machine instead of their bum titles.

But, I have faith that this machine will have a tremendous installed user base. Publishers would be fools to merely throw it (and us) a bone licensed from Hollywood when they get the chance. Fools, I tells ya!
