A list of Wii U games for launch day includes Call of Duty: Black Ops II, Skylanders Giants, TRANSFORMERS PRIME, Wipeout 3, Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two, FIFA Soccer 13, TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 2, New Super Mario Bros.

Also, additional 29 games are planned for release through the end of March 2013.

The Basic Set will be offered in white at a suggested retail price of $299.99 in the United States, while the Deluxe Set, which includes higher storage capacity, additional accessories and Nintendo Land, will be offered in black at a suggested retail price of $349.99 in the United States.
