The other entries currently fall into a Fall 2012 launch period, expecting that we should see them before the end of the year.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Launch day titles<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>New Super Mario Wii U<\/li>\n<li>Nintendo Land<\/li>\n<li>FIFA 13<\/li>\n<li>Mass Effect 3: Special Edition<\/li>\n<li>Nano Assault Neo<\/li>\n<li>Rayman Legends<\/li>\n<li>Trine 2: Director&#8217;s Cut<\/li>\n<li>Toki Tori 2<\/li>\n<li>ZombiU<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Launch window titles<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Aliens: Colonial Marines<\/li>\n<li>Assassin&#8217;s Creed III<\/li>\n<li>Batman: Arkham City Armoured Edition<\/li>\n<li>Darksiders 2<\/li>\n<li>Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two<\/li>\n<li>Game &amp; Wario<\/li>\n<li>Game Party Champions<\/li>\n<li>Just Dance 4<\/li>\n<li>LEGO City: Undercover<\/li>\n<li>Madden NFL 13<\/li>\n<li>Marvel Avengers: Battle For Earth<\/li>\n<li>Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate<\/li>\n<li>NBA 2K13<\/li>\n<li>Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor&#8217;s Edge<\/li>\n<li>Rabbids Land<\/li>\n<li>Rise of the Guardians<\/li>\n<li>Runner 2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien<\/li>\n<li>Scribblenauts Unlimited<\/li>\n<li>SiNG Party<\/li>\n<li>Sonic &amp; All-Stars Racing Transformed<\/li>\n<li>Sports Connection<\/li>\n<li>Tank!

Having an exclusive Super Mario launch title is also something Nintendo hasn\u2019t done in a while, and should please dedicated Nintendo fans.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1
