A GameStop management meeting is apparently scheduled on the 28th of August. Nintendo’s upcoming console is rumored to be the focus of the meeting. Shortly after the meeting, according to a GameStop employee, the retailer will begin offering Wii U pre-orders.
Hopefully Amazon starts taking them soon as well
Ditto. Amazon is ray of light to get a wii u. I’m not gonna preorder at gamestop cuz I know amazon is more trusting . plus ill get it day one since I have special membership hopefully I know about amazon preorders before they’re known n out of stock
cool, but i know gamestop is not a trustworthy company to have your preorders in.
how come? I preordered the 3DS XL a few days ago, put down 50 bucks for it..was my first time preordering anything from gamestop, how come they are not trustworthy?
some gamesstops have evil bosses that try to steal people preorders, i know someone that there boss took 4 wiis when it came out and gave it away to there friends , those wiis are the preorder ones, consumer got piss that day.
I have the receipt showing I gave 50 bucks so if they try screwing me over I will just get my money back
receipt or not they can still screw you over, it happen to a friend of mine. like it said that you preorder this but they can say you “REALLY” preorder this thing instead.
Stfu revolution, you have no idea what you’re talking about.
really are you saying that gamestop is not greedy ass suckers.? man you been living under a rock.
explain to me this then if you think im full of shit. im not the only one experience this problem

I totally agree game stop is complete shit. The only gaming store I go to is ether best buy or eb games. Eb games is frickin awesome!
Nothing but awesome from eb games
EB games is owned by gamestop.. lol I thought that gamestop closed all the eb locations or changed them to game stops. Your all a bunch of idiots.
prove to me im wrong you dumbass troll.
Eddie, are you O-K? Eddie, are you O-K? Are you O-K, Eddie?
Hee-hee!
eddie works for gamestop hahah
and he act immature here.
shut up only hipsters hate gamestop
hi there eddie what they saying is game stop are giveing away preorder wii basacly if you preorder a wii they will just hand out preorder wii even if non preorder wii units
it’s true. because of a fuckboy store manager at gamestop not reserving my MoM edition of KH3D, I may not be able to get him. But on monday im going back there and telling him to find me a copy or else i’ll get him fired for lying.
I worked for Gamestop during wii launch in 2006. You are full of crap about a manager taking 4 for his friends! Nintendo was angry with gamestop because of a leak in price point for the wii, therefore gamestop only received minimal pre order availability of wii’s at launch. I wanted a wii and ps3 (being that they launched same holiday season) but as an employee I was only allowed to choose one console. Trust me.. gamestop is all about customers first. Management cannot take 4 pre ordered wii’s and decide to sell to their friends. Don’t worry reserving is safe at gamestop.
Because managers get “first dibs” on items, even ones you preordered.
did not know that fact thank you for the information i never thought managers get first dibs on items even on preordered ones i thought preorder means we get first dibs on items
yeah, that and it’s actually cheaper (at least for me) to order from amazon, since the shipping charges are actually less than the sales tax i’d pay if i bought it at gamestop, that and by ordering from amazon, i don’t have to go into a gamestop, which is always a nightmare
EB games never gave me hell at all for pre-orders. But over here they never took preorders for consoles/handhelds in the first place. First come first serve basis.
Time Can’t Go Fast Enough For Me

hi there you mean 18
This isn’t just a WiiU meeting, it’s our yearly conference where we see a lot of trailers and other things. And the conference is from the 26-30, so there’s no real telling when pre orders will start. It’s all just speculation.
hi there preorder pick up sunday november 18 2012
I have already pre-ordered mine. They even asked me if I wanted a black or white one. :)
at a USA game stop?
At a USA Gamestop?
I’m going to preorder my Wii U. I purchase the new Mario game and left the 3ds XL there just because I want a different color. Everyone knows.there will be better colors later on and a cheaper price.
