Depends upon how you count though ...
As I implied on an earlier post, you can get a very high game count (or a high number of publishers supporting you) without any of these games being particularly meaningful support. Between ports of Wii and Eyetoy games, low budget downloadable games, and tacked-on alternate control schemes for XBox 360 games in production most publishers can claim to be releasing dozens of Natal games without supporting it enough to green light a single moderate budget game.
You might think I’m being pessimistic, but I can almost guarantee that Your Shape featuring Jenny McCarthy will be one of Ubisoft’s Natal games; and it will probably not be the only direct port, most of which will receive no major graphical or feature upgrades from the Wii version. Much like the Wii, for Natal to really be impressive you need games designed from the ground up to demonstrate why Natal is an improvement; if most of the content is ports from other systems or alternative control-schemes for XBox 360 games this won’t happen.
