Wii U Release Date Rumored For USA

6 April 2012

The Nintendo Wii U release date is rumored to be on Sunday, November 18th, 2012 in America. With Japan following one week later. No European date has been leaked.

This rumor comes from an email WiiUDaily has received from a Japanese retailer, thus you should take this with a grain of salt. But considering the Wii originally also launched on a Sunday back on November 19th, 2006, it’s possible Nintendo has set the dates for November 2012 in line with their vague “late 2012″ launch expectation.

Wii U is Nintendo’s upcoming new console that includes a controller with a 6.2-inch touch screen, and also has a accelerometer, a gyroscope, a rumble feature, an inward-facing camera, a microphone, speakers, and all the controller buttons you’d need. Nintendo promises that adding a second screen to the living room creates a multitude of new video game experiences for your TV setup.

Take a look at the living room concept video:

We’ll let you know as soon as Nintendo officially confirms the Wii U release dates, which will happen at their E3 2012 press conference on June 5th, 2012. We’ll be quick about it, mainly because I cannot wait to get my hands on the Wii U!

Will you be getting a Wii U at launch later this year?

I can’t wait for this. The Legend of Zelda Wii U, Super smash bros universe, assassins creed 3, and Batman Arkham City look like the best games going to be on the Wii U. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTPdWESnHs4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jg9og0T8bM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecdOPiWopUU

I heard everything from IGN.com, ITS AWESOME I am ready for Wii U but not yet for PS Orbis, and Nintendo lied to us they said that Wii U will be more powerful than PS3 & Xbox 360 but I digress ^_^

Well to be fair, everything is still rumors right now. It’s hard to tell what’s going to be confirmed.
They are releasing Xbox 360 & PS3 games like Darksiders 2, Assassin’s Creed 3 and so on for Wii U as well, so they wouldn’t be able to do that if it wasn’t at least as powerful as them. That’s logical right?

Oh definitely with you there. I’m also looking forward to New Super Mario Bros. Mii on Wii U. Mario’s always a guarantee for a good time.
