Nintendo Wii-U

[THX-182]

Amazon has an issue with Nintendo and have nit sold their consoles or handhelds first hand in months. Something to do with a lot of 3DS returns.

Lol...I see you caught that yourself.

You won't be able to get release day delivery since its released on a Sunday. Monday at the earliest if they do. UPS/FedEx don't deliver on Sundays.

Yeah it's a pisser. I guess I'll do in store pick up at TRU or something.

If your getting this you better preorder today there has been an article floating around the webs that after today gamestop will no longer take preorders cause they are getting very limited stock of the black deluxe systems not sure about the white. So if your on the fence just order 1 you could always cancel later if you dont want it or prob sell it for a profit lol. I also read nintendo is doing this on purpose to create a big want and desire in the system.

My Gamestop is working on getting up to 50 Pre-ordersin order to do a midnight launch release, which Im sure they will make. Im kinda surprised that they are only doing a two day pre-order. Glad I got mine in.

so how are the graphics for this console? Are they better than the PS3 and 360? Does it support Blu ray?

Supposedly better, but there hasnt been anything shown that has really demostrated the full power of the system, and no.

Have they announced or shown how exactly that they willbe able to transfer Virtual Console titles from the Wii to the Wii U yet?

Yes they said it works similiar to lile the 3ds transfers did read you will need to have the wii and wii u hooked up online to do the transfer. Im glad I preordered online yesterday they are supposed to take the preorder off the website tommorow. I also ordered a protection kit from gamestop that has 2 stylus a cleaning cloth and two screen protectors for the gamepad for 10. I still have to pick up a game even though it comes with nintendo land I will prob get mario and zombie u.

Will you be able to do a pick-up at your local store on Nov.18?

 

[wanderlai]

Looks like Gamestop has stopped taking preorders. I dont think theyll have enough as it is. Its going to be very limited come holiday season and Soccer moms will have to start watching delivery trucks at the big stores again. I preordered a deluxe at GS and at BB just to cover my bases.

I don't think so. Just going to have em ship it.

 

[speedy485]

Just pre-ordered from Bestbuy.com. In store pickup option for November 18. Looking forward to this. Day 1 console releases are exciting!!!

 

[wofford29]

I pre-ordered through Bestbuy as well for store pickup.

 

[BadMoon]

I want this and will buy it. However there aren't any launch games that I want.

 

[JonD7]

Have they already said what the weight of the controller is?

I want to know as I spend a lot of my time in bed(8 hours usually) just laying there, bored... so this sounds awesome to me, it's either this or a PS Vita.

 

[EXOTICLEX]

Best Buy is sold out online for both versions.

 

[Ktjn]

Curious, and sorry if it's been asked. But when it comes to specs, how much better is this than the ps3?

I agree. I think the console will do alright, but none of the launch games make me jump at the chance to swipe my credit card.

~~I read an article on Kotaku (or IGN) that gave some brainstorming ideas of what the tablet can be used for in RPGs. Using the secondary screen as a dungeon map, inventory screen, or in games like Skyrim where you can pick up and read books have the screen resemble a book where you can turn the pages and everything.
