Vooks is reporting that Nintendo has confirmed the following titles, all for Dec 13th:

$49.95 - Wii Zapper and Link’s Crossbow Training
$99.95 - Resident Evil - Umbrella Chronicles
$99.95 - Zack and Wiki

Of course they are only Nintendo published titles that they can confirm on, being those 3, other 3rd party titles would obviously be released in Dec too but when is anyones guess,

$50!? Aw.. and here I was hoping for a cheap-goodie. Least cheapish. Cause I'm cheap.... Oh well. Still obtaining it. Thinkin' about RE, I haven't played one before though so that puts it low on the to-do list.

I thought that they were saying resident evil came with a wii zapper? Maybe I dreamed that and didn't actually read it anywhere, but I was positive that is what was said.

Oh well, getting res evil anyway, and links crossbow training looks alright so might buy the zapper for that

finally some shooting games, hopefully they are good

Fifty dollars for Link's crossbow? Are they really going to rip us off that much? I thought it would be forty at the most.. How much is it going to be in the US? Is it $20? pfft!

On the other hand, it's nice to see a release date for it, and Umbrella Chronicles. Oh crap. I want Zack and Wiki too. And right before christmas! Right when I'm spending my money on everyone else! I'll have to give some hints for Wii games methinks!

REUC will be completely different to any RE previously, you wouldn't need any previous RE experience. Have you played the shooting parts on Rayman Raving Rabbids or the old Sega game House Of The Dead?
Even RE4 is different (gameplay) to the rest and I can imagine RE5 is going to be much the same as RE4. I suggest you play RE4 just for the sake of playing an AMAZING game! Even if you play it on the GC or PS2, RE4 is a must play.

RE: Umbrella Chronicles will resemble games like "House of the Dead" and "Time Crisis". It's an on-rails arcade shooter where the only thing you need is the Wiimote and good aim.

Personally, I can't wait for this title and I really hope it generates a good response. I'm a huge fan of on-rails shooters simply because no matter how many times you play them, they never get dull. That's the beauty of arcade games

Don't discount Zack & Wiki people, it's supposed to be really good. IGN reviewed it with a 9 just recently. I doubt either Zelda or REUC will get that high.

Is see a lot of people saying things like this, and I don't understand it. The Zapper is a piece of plastic. How does that effect weather it would work with something or not? How would a game not work with the Zapper?

because some shooters you need to press buttons hard to access on the wii remote and nunchuk while they are in the wii zapper.
