Ooh, Reggie's doing a live show rather than a recording like Mr Iwata.

Sunday Nov 18th for US

Fat lot of good this is - there is no sound on the US stream. But I was expecting a pre-Thanksgiving launch for the US so that is off to the right start.

EDIT: NM, reloaded the page.

If Nintendo TV works with sky and virgin, it will be pretty darn good.

woofercooker · 13 Sep 2012 at 15:38

Anybody got a link to the uk stream if there is one?

Metalface Mark · 13 Sep 2012 at 15:40

Viewtiful Joe 2, looks nice, thats what I thought it was, the Wonderful 101 what it actually is.

Bayonetta 2 Wii U exclusive.

malachi · 13 Sep 2012 at 15:42

Great!!!! Bayonetta 2, looks like Nintendo had picked it up

Oh, no price? Time to get absolutely ripped by the British retailers as per usual. I mean I really like my Nintendo Hardware, but I don't think I like the way retailers price the systems. Think I'll leave this one for my mind to decide nearer the time.

2 player, one on the tv one of the remote it pretty cool.

$299.99 8GB = ~£186 + VAT = ~ £225

$349.99 32GB = ~ £217 + VAT = ~£260

Meh.

You get a lot of product for your money, especially when you compare it to the 360/ps3 launch prices.

Can't compare to 360/PS3 launch prices, at the time their tech was cutting edge.

The Wii-U's isn't.

Of course you can, the controller is cutting edge, you are getting more for your money than you did with any previous console release.

I felt the original wii was a disappointment, its not always about the graphics but the games Nintendo is capable of putting out. just going by the games listed today in the video beats all the previous wii games put together and im pretty sure im going to pre order one now. there is a few games here that look like lot of fun.

pumaz · 13 Sep 2012 at 16:06

Damn my one track mind it was indeed the show with the big red balls

This.

I won't be getting a Wii U unless it's mega cheap, but it's not going to be.

Should have called mario "New Super Mario World"
