I swear, if this ends up being a repeat of when the Wii launched 6 years ago, I am actually genuinely going to be SHOCKED that Nintendo pulled this off. :P

Guess we better start getting our preorders in before they're all sold out... I had to wait until February to get my Wii after how crazy that launch was.

didn't even know we can pre order yet

also me getting a Wii was so terribly hard...I ended up going to gamestop like that summer after launch and just decided to ask if they had one..they ended up having a used one and I just said screw it and bought it

Preorders are going now? Where can you get one in the uk? I'd wanna get a black before they all get sold out.

I'm with Andy here as well. I'm waiting for an official price because as of now, EB Games here in Australia is estimating a whooping $599 AUS Dollar price. It's like the PS3 for the Americans! :(

I was once known here as KillerMario, but since I really like Banjo-Kazooie, I changed my display name to show them my respect :)

I'm sure that they will be selling a lot more for the wii u, than what they did 6 years ago for the wii. They have been so confident about how well the wii u will launch for the past couple of months lol.
though it will suck when i get back to America and cannot pre-order a black wii u
