Today's Thursday. Nintendo will show off Wii U games on Tuesday. Want to make that wait seem even longer? Start guessing what these teased Wii U launch games are.
The official Wii U Facebook page posted the following teaser last night:
Guess what the initial game releases will be for Nintendo’s new home console, Wii U? Soon we’ll scratch off to reveal the names! ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒.
To save you counting, the first silver bar is 33 characters long, the second is 27 and the third is 19. We don't know if those numbers are significant, we're just saying.
Let's hear those guesses.

last one might be pikman but it is little long
Could be Zelda for the first one... and I'm guessing Mario for the 2nd and I'm torn between F-Zero and Kirby for the third.
27 (including spaces) -
New Super Mario is Missing!
Subtitle should have been the waiting hurts.
NSMBW is 20. So if they drop the Wii and add something else that could either be the 19 or the 27.
Apparently I cannot count.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii U for the 27 character one.
And... that's all I've got.
I think Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Online works.
I keep scratching but I can't read "F-Zero" in any of them... :<
We're going to make a F-Zero game.
No idea, could be anything really.
Hopefully they don't decide to spoil anything before E3.
TLoZ: Majoras Mask has 27 characters...if you add "Remake" we have 33 and "The legend of Zelda" has 19 if you count the spaces... they are making a new Zelda for 3DS, so the remake could be for Wii u
"New Super Mario Bros. Wii u" fits for 27 characters. But it was obvious that it was planned.
"Big Brain Academy 3" and "Kirby's Adventure 2" fits for 19 characters.
The Legend of Zelda HD Collection fits in the longest box
In other news, the Wii U will have launch titles.
@uel What is your source on this? I must know!!
Um.. New starfox? Oh wait, potental subtitles are too short.
I'm just going to place a bet on Pikmin 3 And new super Mario bros.
@uel- are you sure? I could've sworn it wasn't.
I want to go ahead and say one of the launch titles for Wii U could be a new Zelda game. Which by the way, could VERY WELL be one. But to me, I'm gonna go into the wild and say that it could possibly be a new Mario & Luigi game for Wii U also. I mean, why not treat the Mario & Luigi RPG games the same way with the way how Nintendo is bringing Paper Mario over to the 3DS. Only makes sense to me.
I won't bother guessing. I've gone through all the Wii U games I can think of and NOTHING MATCHES.
@uel Unlike the PS3, then? Oh burn. Yes, that one was too easy.
It'd be odd, to say the least, if Nintendo announces a TLOZ launch game for later in the year. I don't think they've shown off a console Zelda game and released it in the same year, ever.
Nintendo Vs. Capcom fits for 19 characters.
Megaton.
"The Legend of Zelda" is 19, but not sure if they're including subtitles in this. Pikmin 3 is definitely expected at launch as of so far, but to fit those characters it would need to require some subtitle. "New Super Mario Bros. Wii U" for the 27 and I'll guess a Kirby, F-Zero, or new IP for the last one.
Metroid Prime: Death fits as 19. (I'm just putting random stuff together that fits as the number of allotted characters)
Star Fox: Space Wars fits as 19 as well.
my little pony wiiU - 19
Paint by numbers Mario WiiU - 27
Sport island casual fun time WiiU - 33
"SUPER MARIO BROS. 4" is exactly 19 characters long!
I hope they don't spoil these before E3. It wouldn't make this teaser useless if they did as they could announce the games at E3 and then announce them as launch games on the Facebook page.
Super Mario Bros. 4 (19)
Wii U Sports: Winter Resort (27)
And finally...
Pikmin and the very long subtitle (33)
Or possibly...
Ninja Gaiden 3: Razors Edge (27)
Was already rumoured as a launch title..
You guys are awesome.
They are not making a Star-Fox/Metroid crossover at Retro... they misheard
It will be Punch-Out!! F-ZeroX (see, it's 19 letters so it must be true! )
Yeah here's hoping they don't spoil anything before the press conference. It's so much more fun getting hyped up watching the press conference and not know what's gonna happen, and what's a few more days? (oh right, it feels like an eternity)
I guess the only thing confirms is that we'll probably have 3 Nintendo launch titles? Which is more than the 3DS and Wii had.
well i stumbled this on the internet
i think that's not al the nintendo exclusivesl but some are not yet confirmed
FIRE EMBLEM COME TO U.S. D":
Nintendo
Animal Crossing (3DS)
Fire Emblem: Awakening (3DS)
Luigi’s Mansion 2 (3DS)
New Super Mario Bros. 2 (3DS)

@tealovertoma
I notice they do not state they are from Nintendo themselfs.
Possibly publishing a 2nd or 3rd party..?
Reckon I got it on the nail with
my little pony wiiU - 19
developed by Gameloft.
published by Nintendo.
loved by all.
DONKEY KONG COUNTRY is 19!
DONKEY KONG COUNTRY RETURNS is 27!!
And DONKEY KONG COUNTRY RETURNS AGAIN is 33!!!
The character lengths mean nothing. Somebody just held down Ctrl+V for a few seconds. Mario Galaxy 3, perhaps? Probably not, maybe a thematic Mario like Sunshine? I want to see Mario go places he's never gone before, darn it! Oh, and please, put Rosalina and some Luma's in it as NPCs...
Ok, enough counting for me. I've been checking people's character count. Everyone is actually for the most part spot on! @Skunkfish Wii U Sports: Winter Resort actually sounds plausible.
Can't get it to fit without cheating but I want pilotwings (along the lines of the snes and n64 ones). If its not announced at e3 I'm going on a hunger strike!!!
@SKTTR I think you might be onto something right there! =O
@SkywardLink98 Those both have 20.How about "The Tale of Madness"? (19)or"My Body Is Ready the Game 2"? (27)
19 -
Wrecking Crew Wii U
My Name is Reggie U (19)
Who's Your Daddy Wii U Collection (33)
highlights the spaces
...Why did I think that would work? :/
These comments are hilarious and I love you guys. xD
I seriously highlighted them though, thinking I would get an answer. xD
There's no way they're announcing a Zelda for Wii U. Not buying that.
Enter the Locker Room Wii U (27).
Sorry, E3's just on the brain.
There's no spaces. So:
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedalianism (33) - An RPG about becoming a master of legendarily long words (it actually means the love of long words)
Honorificabilitudinitatibus (27) - An exam-prepertion app akin to Brain Training (means "the state of being able to achieve honours")
Anthropomorphically (19) - A crossover 2D plaformer featuring all Nintendo and SEGA's anthropomorphic ('furry') characters.
New Super Mario Brothers Mii is 28?
The Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask is 33...
....Majora's Mask isn't happening, dude...
Hmmmm new Monolith Soft game?
I GOT THE 19 CHARACTERS!!!!!! Including spaces it's Batman: Arkham City! Count the characters if you don't believe me!
EDIT: I also figured out the 33 character one, but I'm not so sure if it's correct. about that because it's Wii U download software (It's Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs, by the way)
Wii U System Update 1.0 (19)
You think this is Mother 4: wrong (33)
@Crouteru You have the same avatar as me
Super Mario U-niverse
I don't see a new Legend of Zelda game as a launch title, they take more to work on. Maybe something newer with the Mario Galaxy series or maybe another Pilotwings game. Just my guesses. Nintendogs + Cats Deluxe?
BIT.TRIP Presents Runner2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien
Never mind, that's 56.
@SteveW You're my hero in every sense of the word.
BPlus - The Complete Collection (27)
And shipped straight to CB's door
i'm pretty sure one of them is New Super Mario Bros. Mii ...
@Nin-freak If you add up the spaces , it's 33 characters...
Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Sexyland
Called it.
They're really hyping this up. I like it. It gives me the feeling that they're going to be huge!
Good old Nintendo always teasing us like a hot girl who wears provocative clothing but gets angry cuz you stare at her.
@Eureka Don't worry. I highlighted them too.
@uel: I'm pretty sure Nintendo learned their lesson with the 3DS. Launching a new gaming device with games is a bad idea.
@SKTTR My thoughts exactly!
"Miyamoto's New I.P." (19)
"A Super Crazy Awesome Wii U Game" (33)
I want that Plush!
New Super Mario Bros. Wii U
27 Character Long (including spaces)
Super Mario World 2
19 Characters Long (including spaces)
