Wii U Launch Game Library Sits At 23 Titles Available Day One On November 18 2012

Exactly 23 games for the Wii U launch will be available to purchase on November 18th 2012, when the new Nintendo system officially hits store shelves (unlike software, physical hardware can NOT be digitally downloaded... although you CAN purchase it online and have it delivered to your house, natch).

Wii U games will be priced at $60 the same price point as other current-gen console games for Xbox 360 and PS3. But $10 more than original Wii games that were priced at $50. The Wii U is backwards compatible with original Wii games, meaning you can still buy Wii classics and play them on the new system at the cheaper pricepoint.

This amount of games is not to be confused with the amount of "launch window" titles that will hit between now and March of 2013, where more than 50 games will hit shelves. Quite a long window, that.

So what exact games can you buy on November 18th? Here's the list of 23 Wii U Launch Games: 

1. Assassin’s Creed III
2. Batman: Arkham City Armored Edition
3. Call of Duty: Black Ops II
4. Darksiders II
5. Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two
6. ESPN Sports Connection
7. FIFA Soccer 13
8. Game Party Champions
9. Just Dance 4
10. New Super Mario Bros. U
11. Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge
12. Nintendo Land
13. Rabbids Land
14. Scribblenauts Unlimited
15. SiNG Party
16. Skylanders Giants
17. Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
18. Tekken Tag Tournament 2
19. Transformers Prime
20. Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper
21. Wipeout 3
22. Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2013
23. ZombiU

What Wii U exclusive or Wii U launch title are you most excited about? I'm definitely most excited about ZombieU! Which looks absolutely awesome!
