China Electronics Wholesaler

We just yesterday learned that Skate It, the Skate spin-off for Wii and Nintendo DS, will launch on November 19. But what about Skate 2, the proper sequel to Electronic Arts' successful take on the skateboarding genre last year? As IGN reports, the manual for Mirror's Edge has an insert advertising Skate 2, with a small blurb stating "In Stores January 2009."

EA confirmed the month for its release is set, but there's no more specific date than that. But look at the bright side -- at least we now know that's one less game we have to worry about in the ridiculously clustered months of November and December. You hear that, videogame industry? We like playing games in January too.
