The North American WiiWare launch is almost upon us, and instead of the stealth releases (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/05/06/nintendo-holding-back-wiiware-launch-list/) that we thought were coming, Nintendo's press release of WiiWare games debuting this Monday (along with their point values) was recently leaked. Although we can't be sure this list is 100% valid, it looks like we can expect the following:
Defend Your Castle (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/03/21/defend-your-castle-trailer-storms-the-internet/) -- 500 Wii Points
Pop (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2007/10/25/pop-on-wii-ware-looks-cooler-than-we-thought/) -- 700 Wii Points
V.I.P. Casino: Blackjack (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/05/03/non-earthbound-esrb-ratings-fly-high/) -- 700 Wii Points
TV Show King (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/03/31/gameloft-phoning-in-more-wiiware-ports/) -- 1000 Wii Points
LostWinds (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/05/05/lostwinds-trailer-blows-this-way-makes-us-sleepy/) -- 1000 Wii Points
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/03/24/new-my-life-as-a-king-trailer-wheeled-out-for-wiiware-launch/)-- 1500 Wii PointsAlthough we're disappointed by the lack of Dr. Mario (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/05/07/nintendo-prescribes-price-new-name-for-dr-mario/), this looks like a pretty solid launch list to us. It'll be difficult to pick and choose exactly which titles we want, but there are definitely some that stand out more than others.
How about you? Do you plan on downloading any of the above, or are you going to wait for impressions and reviews first?
