I too jumped on the bandwagon after waiting (and being underwhelmed) at the XBone.
Opted for one of the £199 deals inc Lego City, and got mario World 3D, Zelda HD and wii party u, plus 2 non genuine motion+ remotes and chucks (£25 total, we'll see as to quality!).
All for £100 less than bare XBone!

It makes sense to play the multi platform games on PC. You can't beat the Wii U for family fun. I will get a PS4 later next year for the PS+ stuff im collecting. But I'll get a Wii U to replace my Wii for family multi player FUN.
I'll probably pick one up just after xmas

As for Reggie at the awards?! Can someone copy/paste the article for me? At work and can't view video game related things Does it appear to be an announcement of sorts?

Does it appear to be an announcement of sorts?VGX Award Ceremony To Include New Footage of an Upcoming Wii U Game
Reggie Fils-Aime will be on hand to introduce it
The upcoming VGX 2013 ceremony — formerly the Video Game Awards — is expected to bring its usual flurry of world premiere trailers for major upcoming games. In previous years the awards have been known for their rather bombastic presentation, though the VGX rebranding is apparently going to be part of a sustained effort to scale back the bravado for a tighter, more intimate and games-focused event.
Even if the tone may shift, VGX is still promising plenty of upcoming game footage to excite gamers, though these typically don't deliver much for Nintendo devotees. As Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime teased in a recent GT.TV appearance, however, the company has been planning an appearance at this year's event. That's now been confirmed by the organisers themselves, as among plenty of other titles to be shown it's been confirmed that Fils-Aime will himself appear at the event to introduce footage of an upcoming Wii U game; more details haven't been provided as yet.
The likelihood is that this'll be fresh footage of a previously confirmed upcoming release such as Mario Kart 8, Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze or, if we're very lucky, Super Smash Bros.. We don't know but, and this is surely the whole point of the tease, we'll be tuning in to find out. Don't forget, too, that Nintendo's secured a number of nominations, including Super Mario 3D World in the Game of the Year category.
The awards take place on Saturday 7th December at 6:00 PM ET / 3:00 PM PT / 11pm UK / midnight Central European time, will reportedly last around three hours and will be streamed on Spike.com, among other places. Will you be tuning in to watch, and which upcoming Wii U game would you most like to see?

Hopefully something NEW and not something we've seen before/a game we've seen before!
Seconded.
F-zero GX HD... oh my.
That would be amazing!! We have waiting to long for an F-zero game.
Some of the gameplay footage of the anti-mavity karts/levels on Mario Kart 8 brought back memories of F-zero/Extreme-G (not as fast obviously), and the lack of orientation you got in Forsaken. Would love to see new gen versions of those games as well.

Smash Bros gameplay would probably be the best upcoming thing Nintendo could show off for the VGX target audience. Which probably means it will end up being the unveiling of the 4th DKTF character
and completely underwhelm everyone.
