REDMOND, Wash. -- Nintendo's first-quarter lineup is filled with new games that expand the breadth and depth of the Wii library.

The first three months of the year are filled with games, including new games “Wii Play,” “SSX Blur,” “The Godfather Blackhand Edition” and “Prince of Persia Rival Swords.” Fans can enjoy the classic Nintendo franchises such as “The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past” and the upcoming “Mario Kart 64” for the Wii Shop Channel.

"Our worldwide launch shows people, from experienced players to non-players, are hungry for the kinds of entertainment only Wii provides," says Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime. "Wii hardware production continues full bore, and every week we're delivering more content to further expand the experience."

”Wii Play,” a collection of nine new games in the “Wii Sports” style, will be available Feb. 14. “Wii Play” includes games like Billiards, Fishing and Shooting Range, a target-practice game in the style of Nintendo's classic “Duck Hunt.”

Veteran gamers will find new challenges by entering worlds populated by everyone from Tiger Woods to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, thanks to a list of new offerings from third-party publishers.
