Ubisoft has confirmed that Splinter Cell Double Agent will be a launch title for the Wii. Though at the end of the IGN article announcing that, it does say "launch window."

"We are very excited to bring Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Double Agent to the Wii this holiday season," said Tony Key, vice president of marketing at Ubisoft. "The Splinter Cell franchise has always translated very well across multiple platforms and we are confident that the Wii version will continue the tradition of maximizing the capabilities of each respective video game console platform."

The Wii version of the game will be based on both the PS2 and GameCube versions, with enhancements made to both gameplay and graphics, according to IGN. While the game won't have all of the levels that are going to be in the Xbox 360 version, it will make use of Wii's controls. The game also won't support online play.

Man, I hope that isn't the way Wii games are headed, comparatively janky graphics and gimped online for sweet hand-thrusting controls. I want it all, not just innovation.

More screens after the jump.
