I know the details for the price and and release month the month is November and price is £220-£230 this is from my local game
and its in their pre order book

I'm pretty sure that November was guessed to be the most likely month of release.

As for price, I wouldn't wing it too much on what the store said. It's better to wait for Nintendo's official announcement.

Have you ever heard of placeholders?

So that should equal about 320 AUD but we will still end up paying 500, Wii you world.

[Auzzie Wingman]

Yeah, that's too low a price Dominic.

[Jelloman]

no thats pounds not usd so thats about 350$

So? My local store has November and 299.99 USD as the preorder price. The dates may be correct but any blind monkey could tell you November just due to Nintendo's recent launches. Stores are just guessing the prices at this point. 300 -350 does seem to be the range. After work today, im going to go to another store and see what their preorder info is to see the if its any different from ours.

Hope it's true £230 with Nintendo Land bundled would be perfect. Though I think it might release at the end of October so it can get Assassin's Creed 3 at the same time as the other versions.

yes i do

[Alph]

220-230 pounds would be good for me! Even better if it had Nintendo Land bundled in!

350 is good. 300 is incredible. 250 is a dream.

This thread is awesome... now im gonna show off my psychic powers and when they come true im gonna rub it in your faces... the release date is gonna be anywhere between now and janruary 2014 and the price will be precisely anywhere from $199-$899... this is not speculation this has been confirmed people! also the WiiU will be a game console that plays video games and it may or may not be by Nintendo, details are still a bit sketchy

I bet they let European retailers to set the price like with the 3DS.
Hope they don't though because on release they was putting the 3DS at £230 at my local game

[StreetPassWanter]

yes i do

What you posted was a placeholder. Now please don't make misleading titles that will make everyone's day more disappointing. Thankfully, the mods saved the day!

They are probably very close to being correct, but we still can't take anything that anybody but Nintendo says as confirmation.

In Europe, a price is usually a guarantee.
IE, unless the console is grossly under-priced (if it's about 350 GBP it would be grossly under-priced) by them right now, they can't advertise that price and not take that amount when it launches.

America has no such consumer protection in place.
