Wii U boasts impressive ‘launch window’ lineup featuring 29 additional games

For some, the initial lineup of games available at the launch of the Nintendo Wii U will determine whether or not they will purchase the console. And while Nintendo is unleashing the largest launch day lineup in its history for the Wii U, many gamers are looking well beyond the first day titles that will be available.

We already know the Wii U will launch with 23 games on November 18, 2012. Some of those games include high profile titles like FIFA 13, Assassin's Creed 3, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. But for many, we are in it for the long haul. We want to know what titles will be release beyond the initial release surge. Sure, 23 games is a lot at first, but what about in February after the console has been out for a while?

Nintendo is aiming to be one step ahead of eager gamers by announcing the titles expected to be available shortly after the system's release. The list includes 29 additional titles that will expand upon the initial 23 games at release. While you can view the list of release day titles here, below you can find the many other games that will be available sometime in the five-month span which Nintendo is referring to as the Wii U's "launch window". The titles below are expected to release sometime before March 31, 2013.
