Europe gets sweet launch titles!! I want sweet titles! You want sweet titles! Sweet titles for everyone!!!

Europe may be getting the GBA (second to) last, but they are getting some awesome titles with it at launch on the 22nd. Here's the list:

  • Super Mario Advance (Nintendo)

  • F-Zero: Maximum Velocity (Nintendo)

  • Kuru Kuru Kururin (Nintendo)

  • Rayman Advance (Ubisoft)

  • Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2 (Activision)

  • Ready 2 Rumble: Round 2 (Midway)

  • GT Championship (Kemco)

  • Tweety and The Magic Jewels (Kemco)

  • Castlevania: Circle of the Moon (Konami)

  • Konami Krazy Racer (Konami)

  • GT Advance (THQ)

  • Mega Man EXE (Capcom)

  • Army Men Advance (3DO)

Yes, those are some seriously good games. But a mystery surrounds Mega Man EXE. It is a launch title in Europe. But in America Nintendo Power said July, 2 online retailers say September, and Capcom's web-store says October. So, when is it coming out in the US?

Plus, Europe gets Kuru Kuru Kururin!!! Most addictive game EVER!! Along with all those other great games. Good deal for you Europeans! Have fun come the 22nd!!

UPDATE

I got an email in today from Julien from Consoles France. Apparently, that list above is just the launch titles for England. France, and probably other countries, will be getting different launch titles. Here's the list for France:

  • F-Zero : Maximum Velocity

  • Kuru Kuru Kururin

  • Super Mario Advance

  • GT Advance Championship

  • GT Championship

  • Rayman Advance

  • Castlevania: Le Cercle da le Lune

  • Krazy Racers (alias Waiwai Racing)

  • Tony Hawk 2

  • Pinobee: Wings of Adventure

Actually, both Castlevania and Krazy Racers are already out in France, according to Consoles France.

Julien also informed me that in France Mega Man EXE is being published by Ubi Soft and that according to Ubi Soft Mega Man EXE, Breath of Fire, and Final Fight One will be August, September games. Maybe this will help clear things up. Somehow I doubt that Mega Man EXE is a England launch title.

UPDATED YET AGAIN

Today, I got another email in, this time from S.T.E.G.I. from Nintedndofans.de, a German Nintendo website. So, here's Germany's launch titles.

  • Army Men Advance

  • Castlevania: Cicrcle of the Moon

  • F-Zero: maximum Velocity

  • GT Advance Racing Championship

  • Konami Krazy Racers

  • Kuru Kuru Kururin

  • Pinobee: Wings of Adventure

  • Rayman Advance

  • Ready 2 Rumble: Round 2

  • Super Mario Advance

  • Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2

  • Top Gear GT Championship

  • Tweety and the Magic Gems

As you can see, the launch lists for these 3 countries are slightly different. I wonder if I'll get any more emails about the rest of European launch titles. If I do, you can rest assured that it'll be posted here.
