As part of the lead-up to E3, Nintendo today released a tease for the first roster of Wii U game releases.

Here’s the full text of the tease, straight from their Facebook page:

Guess what the initial game releases will be for Nintendo’s new home console, Wii U? Soon we’ll scratch off to reveal the names! ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒.

Each of the three “scratch off” areas have specific character lengths: 33, 27, and 19 in order. That would obviously lead us to guess that those are the exact length of the three game names—but what those games are remains a mystery!

Any guesses? Let us know in the comments below!
