14 DAY TRIAL // Nintendo is currently one of the most popular video game companies, largely due to its two extremely successful platforms, the DS handheld device and the innovative Wii console, which have both been experiencing record sales despite the fact that a lot of time has passed since their release dates.
One of the key factors of this growth is the fact that both devices have a big library of titles, which can appeal to almost every kind of gamer out there, be they casual or hardcore ones. Now, in a recent press conference, the company announced the lineup of titles that would arrive onto the Wii console in the following months up until the summer season.
Major titles to be launched include the remake of the popular Punch-Out!! boxing game, which was originally made for the arcade systems back in the 1980s. Other high-end titles are Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, MySims Party or The Conduit. Here's the full lineup of titles and their respective release dates or months.
