Wii U marketing materials head to retailers



Looks like we're talking about UK retailers specifically, but some of the first in-store promo items are showing up. Looks like we should expect that launch date/price point event in the not-too-distant future! Thanks to all that sent this in!

Look at the black wii u picture. Does that mean it's going to be available for launch? As i have said before, i'll get the Wii U as soon as the Black one comes out, if that's at launch then so be it.

They need to put this out NOW! I feel that we are gonna get the Wii U sooner than we think. Also nope RMC the last picture is America. On the boxes it has ESRB Rating on them.

It's already been said but...BLACK Wii U!! :D

I hope it's available in all territories

That advert for NintendoLand makes me wonder if the game will be bundled with the system or not.

Maybe Wii U will be here October or earlier? I don't think stores would have press materials this early if it wasn't launching within 2 months.

While this is awesome and all, I just hope that NintendoLand poster doesn't mean that it won't be boundled. D: I mean, really, it has to be boundled.. right?

I dont think that means it wont be bundled, but nintendo may want the massive profits this game will give them...

Ah, right, that makes sense. I think. ._.

Also, Black Wii-U? I will get a White, but I hope the Black will be available early. People tends to like that more. :lol:

Again people - E3 and beyond has heavily focused on the Black version, why would it not be at launch thus [it's not like the multiple Wii colours pre-launch that weren't ever heavily showcased]? :roll: :wink:

Such stupidity. Seriously.

Might go pre-order a black one assuming they have this at blockbuster in town. Unlikely though. >_< Don't wanna have to go to hull or scarborough to grab my console D:
