Let the real Wii U countdown begin

Spotted this in my local GameStop...



I remember seeing a clock just like this for the Wii. I can't believe that was so long ago! Man...it's going to be a long 55 days!

Eric Cartman and I are going out to bury ourselves in the snow. Make sure one of you guys digs us up on the day the WiiU is released, okay?

It's a bit early to start counting down... No one is going to say this tomorrow " Oh yeah! 54 days left into I get my hands on the Wii U".

But I have been counting down since August 10th every single day saying that to myself. I knew it'd launch on November 18th. Why August 10th? Because that was 100 days away!!

I thought this was a Best Buy display. That is, until I actually read the story. I guess they chose blue/ yellow because the boxarts will use the same color scheme.

I saw this when I was there the other day. It was below the games so I had to duck down to be able to read the clock counter.

Did they have show a row full of Mario Wii U? It really doesmt help 3rd party games sale seeing a display like that. They could've mixed it up with other Wii U titles in there.

That ridiculous clock with the countdown builds hype by itself with each passing day.

The GameStop by me didn't even get a case for Mario U till this week and they only have one on display. They are showing a bunch of third party games there.
