Wii U Official Release Details
Earlier today Nintendo announced details for their upcoming Wii U console while no CE releases have been announced yet Nintendo rarely disappoints so I'm sure many of you are interested in getting your hands on this console.
The Wii U will come in two versions, and these versions vary slightly between Japan and the rest of the world. In America the Wii U will be released on November 12th and receive a "Basic" bundle for $299.99 (USD), or a "Deluxe" bundle for $349.99. In Europe the Wii U will be released on November 30th and receive the same bundles as the US, priced at £210 and £250 respectively. In Japan the Wii U will be released on December 8th and receive a "Basic" bundle for 26,250 Yen, or the Premium bundle for 31,500 Yen. The "Baisc" set will include:

Nice to see all territories will be paying a similar price for the WiiU.
Of course I will be ordering one of these for day one. Im sure that if it bores me within a week or two I will maintain a reasonable return on it. :p Last edited by ferrari100; 09-13-2012 at 11:21 PM. |

The UK prices aren't confirmed, I'd guess at £229.99 and £279.99. I'll wait till a price drop on this due as it seems a lot for something with 8gb memory and I don't want to fiddle about with SD cards and USB drives.

Re: Wii U Official Release Details
I already pre-ordered mine (I was 2nd to pre-order at my store).
Based on the price differences there's no reason NOT to buy the Deluxe version... hard drive size aside it comes with a game for less than the price of the game, the hard drive is just a bonus. if demand is high it will be worth it's weight in gold during the holiday season if demand is mediocre and I don't like it I can probably get my money back easily enough if demand is so low that it sits on shelves, at least it plays Wii games in HD and I don't own a Wii anymore, so it's worth that. really you can't go wrong buying a console like this on release day. Judging buy the fact that there was literally a line forming behind me at the store to place pre-orders, I'd say that it will probably sell very well at launch. |

Where did you pre-order? Best Buy? GameStop? Just curious who is taking pre-orders in the US.
