Wii's Summer Starts With Resident Evil

Dates for Super Paper Mario, Elite Beat Agents and more.

Wii owners in the UK could be forgiven for wondering what happened to some of the big games already out elsewhere around the world. Where's Super Paper Mario, or Trauma Center, or Mario Party 8? Nintendo knows.

The company on Wednesday brought relief to many starving Wii owners, dating more than 20 new Wii games and a further 40 or so for the DS.

The most high profile of the bunch is the aforementioned Super Paper Mario, which, after hitting Japan and the US in April, will be out across Europe on 14 September.

Before then, though, Wii owners will be treated to Capcom's revamping of Resident Evil 4, arriving next Friday, and Trauma Center: Second Opinion, due in August, nearly 9 months after it came out in the US.

Nintendo is getting more specific about DS games too. The new Brain Training is out on 29 June and the two new Pokémon games are due at the end of July. Elite Beat Agents splits the two, arriving on 13 July.
