[Wii U] Launch & Pricing Event Tomorrow

[GaijinGuyJim]

Tomorrow is a big day for those eager to get their hands on Nintendo's upcoming Wii U! The reason being, is that Nintendo will be holding special Wii U events in Japan, North America, and Europe tomorrow, and this event will be providing us with the launch date, and price of the console. We will also get to see what games we can expect at launch. Reggie Fils-Aime will be hosting North America's event in New York City, just as he did for the launch announcement for the first Wii. Nintendo of Europe President Satoru Shibata will be hosting Europe's event. This should hopefully confirm that Europe will in fact be able to get the Wii U this year, as opposed to next year as rumors have suggested.

The Japanese event will begin a few hours before the NA and Eu event, at 12am PT, 3am ET. North America and Europe's event will begin at the same time, at 7am PT, 10am ET, 3pm BST. The release date, pricing, and launch line-up will most likely be revealed within the first hour of the event's start, and then after that the focus will be on giving the participants hands-on demos of various games Nintendo will have available.


UPDATE: September 13
