The 3DS remake of N64 classic The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time launches in Europe on 17th June, Nintendo has announced.

It also revealed dates for a number of other titles across all its platforms. Other 3DS highlights include Puzzle Bobble Universe on 21st April, Steel Diver on 6th May and Dead or Alive: Dimensions on 20th May.

There's a handful of interesting titles on their way to its creaky, last-gen counterpart too, including Plants vs Zombies on 6th May and a remake of Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Reverie on 20th May.

Things are rather thin over on the Wii – your top picks there are SEGA's FPS sequel The Conduit 2 on 22nd April, Virtua Tennis 4 on 29th April and LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean on 13th May.

Looking further afield, Nintendo also confirmed that Wii Play: Motion, Xenoblade Chronicles and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword would all be in stores before the end of 2011.
