Nintendo's newest console, the Wii U, is set to launch on November 18. The follow-up to the successful Wii console includes improved graphics and a unique GamePad with a built in touchscreen, the Nintendo TVii service and a built-in social network called MiiVerse.

23 games are slated to be available at launch, ranging from family friendly titles to some of the most successful brands in modern video gaming.

“We’re making sure that Wii U owners will have great games to play from the moment they open the box, and that a steady stream of fun new games is always on the way,” said Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime in a press release. “We have something for everyone, from new franchises to creative new approaches to familiar favorites.”
