I wonder how they will handle games that made use of the analog triggers, such as Melee and Super Mario Sunshine?

Rumored.


Whenever games suddenly appear on eShop, you can bet on them being real

Super Mario Sunshine
Animal Crossing
Soul Calibur 2
Sonic Adventure 2
Tales of Symphonia

Any of those games would be an instant "shut up and take my money" purchase.

Yessssssss.

Has anything else leaked out outside of those two games? Sonic Adventure DX is a good one to launch with. Proves it can support third parties.

I'm guessing Luigi's Mansion and Super Mario Sunshine are no brainers.

I hope they get the Star Wars titles.

Probably just two random titles that were inadvertently found

A reply to that Twitter post said they spotted Batman Begins on the Russian Nintendo site too. But that seems like a really odd one considering the licensing there.

But where are the actual links to these things? Where are they finding them?

check foreign censor bureaus like PEGI and such. Sometimes they will put up ratings for games before they're ever announced.

I've done a bit more digging. They're here
https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Search/Search-299117.html?q=&faf=GAME
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and Tony Hawk's Underground 2 are also listed.
But...

One likely cause of these games popping up high on this games list is simply that they're incomplete records, so they're appearing with other pages with 'TBD' values for release dates, age ratings and so on. Browsing through the lower end of the list lots of retro titles have full details, so this seems like a handful of pages that have been started and then forgotten by a Nintendo staffer doing some data entry.


I think I'd lean towards this considering different EU regions have different games listed. Licensed games like Batman Begins and Chronicles of Narnia pretty much never get re-released this late. The rights are way too complicated. EA would not have the Batman license anymore.

They're probably actual database listings for when they were on Gamecube.

EDIT: Yep. Click on random pages and you can find several old Nintendo games like Banjo-Kazooie and Perfect Dark Game Boy.

The Narnia GC game was actually pretty dang good. By far one of the better movie games out there.
It's supposed to be HitTheGroundWalking.
