THQ on Monday announced that it will pimp four launch titles for Nintendo’s Wii, due out on Nov. 19.
The launch line-up is based on popular television and movie properties, including Disney Pixar’s Cars, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Barnyard, and SpongeBob SquarePants.
“Nintendo has a remarkable ability to inspire game developers to create compelling interactive experiences for their increasingly innovative game systems,” said Kelly Flock, executive vice president of worldwide publishing, THQ. “As the #1 third-party publisher of software across all Nintendo gaming systems, THQ’s library of popular mass-market brands aligns perfectly with Nintendo’s strategy of creating fun and accessible experiences for the new Wii system.”
Wii will retail for $249.99 and will offer new gameplay experiences with a motion-detecting remote controller.
“THQ’s proven brands have long resonated with Nintendo’s extremely dedicated audience,” says Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime. “Wii’s potential to bring gaming to the masses using the ground-breaking Wii Remote, presents a unique opportunity for THQ. We welcome the addition of their strong lineup to the best launch library ever for a Nintendo console.”
Wii will retail for $249.99 in the U.S. It will compete this holiday against Microsoft’s Xbox 360 and Sony’s Playstation 3.
