As part of what shall be known henceforth as Wednesday Wii Day, Nintendo has revealed the final list of European games set to launch alongside the console on December 8.
Totalling 23 titles from day one, a further three games are set for release by the end of December. Alongside Nintendo's own Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, third-party highlights include Ubisoft's Red Steel, Far Cry Vengeance and Raving Rayman Rabbids, SEGA's Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz and Activision's Call of Duty 3.
Notable absentees from the European launch list, still scheduled for release with the console over in the US include Trauma Center: Second Opinion, Elebits and Metal Slug Anthology. Sadly, there's no news yet on when we can expect to see any of these on these shores, but hopefully we won't have to wait too. Eh, Nintendo?
Beyond December however, Nintendo is promising WarioWare: Smooth Moves for a January 2007 release, while Excite Truck should be squealing into stores next February. Squint below for the full list of Wii games prepped for European release before the end of the year.
