GameStop says it has received 1.2 million pre-orders on Wii U software, which is more than double of the pre-orders of Wii launch titles, in 2006, from the video game retailer. This relatively means that consumers are pre-ordering 2.4 Wii U games per console.
Amazing!
You smell like
sorry for taking this here but is a “must watch”
live streaming wii u now!!!
I’m always happy to hear how well Nintendo is doing.
HAPPY 60th BIRTHDAY SHIGERU MIYAMOTO!
Does that count Nintendo Land bundled with the Deluxe Wii U?
Guess it could be but I’m sure they are talking about software alone without the bundle “shrug”
No its just software, unless you preordered nintendoland on its own it dosent count
Well, Tbh if showed anyone that picture they would jizz.
I got 2 deluxe bundles…can’t wait….
2 deluxe ? .. why not remplace one deluxe by 6 games ? I’m byuing the Deluxe with 7 games.
Because you could sell that second deluxe on ebay for more than double what you paid for it? Is what I would have done if I had the money for a second one.
Its maximum one console by person here in quebec/canada.
Ive got 2 deluxe and 5 games.. Ninja Gaiden/Black O2/ Mario/ Ninland/ Zombie U
Happy birthday miyamoto! His birthday present is how much money the Wii U gets him
haha best birthday preset EVER xD
For comparison:
(North America)
Wii Launch Window Titles: 33
Wii U Launch Window Titles: ABOUT 40
its more than 50
Oh is it? I was having trouble counting. It certainly has a more support than Wii.
Why didn’t it sell 4 times as much? the wii u is destined to fail
You really are a jerk, Vylash. I don’t understand people like you.
Thank you, gypsy. We all were waiting for your predection. Thanks. We are all definitely follow you on Twitter for that.
Oh that’s why it sold almost 100,000 copies. Males sense.
oh god i whis i had the money to buy it at lanch TT

Ps. I bought mine. Calling my Walmart now to confirm if they’re having a midnight release. Amazon didn’t ship my ZombiU though; very disappointing.
They won’t ship until the day before launch.
and that’s just gamestop, who knows what the other retails have pre-order?

My heart is beating so fast and I’m about to pop out of my skin.
well that was 2006… and 2006 was a crazy year to begin with
Does anyone know of any Black Friday video game deals that stores other than Toys R Us is having?
@GoNintendoTweet has been listing them daily like for GameStop and BestBuy
This saturday 30 dollar off on any console game included wiiu if you buy 2 on toys r us
Yeees! Im exited to get my basic wii u on sunday
I am so pissed gamestop did not have s midnight release. I have to wait til 11am to get my WiiU.
Mother fucking greedy bastards didn’t want to pay to have their store staffed? Safty issues? Bullshit. Wii=Midnight release. 3DS=Midnight release. I’m not pre-ordering at gamestop again. My Best Buy is having a Midnight release.
I’m so impatient!!
Seriously, they could have trouble with the law. If the queues blocked access to another store, the sidewalk or the road, they could be faced with a huge fine. Add to this that no one wants to work in the middle of the night on a Sunday and you’ve got an understaffed overcrowded store. Best Buy is a huge 24 hour store, hence why midnight launches are rarely a problem.
WOW. I din’t think it would be this popular this quickly! I AM SO HAPPY. Even if I still don’t have a Wii U preordered…. I WILL GET ONE. JUST YOU WATCH.
Awesome! Hopefully these strong sales continue so more developers will want to put their games on Wii U.
Does anybody know if blockbuster having midnight release? Have feeling zombie U not gonna live up to the hype. Anybody else? I think it will get like 6.5 from ign. Thinking about getting FIFA, Sonic Racing, COD, Zombie U (if at least an 8). Will wait for review on zombie U. Other already reviewed and got good scores.
Official Nintendo Magazine sound very promising on teh subject of ZombiU. There’s an empty spot of a “best launch game” so I’m expecting it to be huge.
Just to let you know,you shouldn’t be relying on reviews.You should be getting the game for your own personal interest.
I’m getting mine (basic) on Monday. More convenient, and I’m not opening it until Christmas (for various reasons) anyway…
For the guy who said if anybody knows a new nintendo magazine in the US theres is a new Magazine that just started last month it is called PureNintendo Magazine it pretty decent but is bi-monthly.If you want to check it yourself go to http://purenintendo.com/

I want to be in a fire.
The 2 year long wait since E3 2011 for the Wii U comes to an end tomorrow!!! Nintendo reclaims its title as king of gaming beginning tomorrow.
Don’t crown Nintendo king yet. System hasn’t even come out yet. Celebrate at the end of the game. Not in the middle of a close one with plenty of time to go. Best luck to Nintendo, I hope it does well. I still hate the name. Ill call it the “Nintendo 4XL on Roids”
Or you could do what Japan is doing and just call it the “Super Wii”.
*Nintendo DS 4XL
Business is already boomin’ for the Big N!
I have see there stock the closerthe lauch gets the more they rise
Speaking of stocks– I had visited Bloomberg’s website and (according to the Nikkei index) Nintendo’s stocks have went up to 150 yen per share at 1.44% and closing in at 10,550 JPY.
I believe it I preordered 9 WII U games myself I preordered mass effect 3 but with all the technical issues I keep reading about I think I’ll put the money on another game till they can figure out what the issue is that is causing the technical issues. Too bad cuz it really sounds like one helluva good game to play
That 1 is easy is ea foult
That is crazy!!!
I will probably get the wii u at the end of november
I haven’t preordered any games because there were no reviews up yet, so there was no way to know which ones are good. I’m getting Nintendo Land as a pack in, and I’m sure I’ll buy the new Mario Bros. in the store.
My feeling is the Zombie U will probably turn out as good as Red Steel… and be a very middle of the road sort of launch game.
i think it is funny when they average out numbers i just can’t visualize 0.4 of a game
It’s true for me, definitely. I’ve preordered eight games for Wii U (Nintendo Land [in the bundle], New Super Mario Bros. U, Pikmin 3, Assassin’s Creed III, Skylander’s Giants, Warriors Orochi 3 Hyper, Bayonetta 2 and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge) but only 4 games for Wii (Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz, Zelda: Twilight Princess, Trauma Center: Second Opinion, and Wii Sports).
This is awesome news.
Trolls were predicting things of the exact opposite variety.
