Midway Announces E3 Line-up

Midway has announced it's E3 line-up. Did they accidentally hint at an early release of the Nintendo Wii as well?

Midway has announced its E3 line-up for the Nintendo Wii system. As Midway added an expected releasedate for every single title on the list, we were surprised to see that Blitz: The League is set for a release this October. For other titles, such as The Ant Bully, Midway states a seperate releasedate for the Wii version. Whether Midway simply forgot about the Wii releasedate for Blitz: The League, or we're actually facing a release earlier than the reported November 2006, remains unknown for the moment.

Midway's line-up for E3 includes:

Blitz: The League (Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, PSP) - October 2006 The celebrated arcade-style football franchise is back and better than ever with a new treatment of America's most popular sport.
