Where to get a Wii U

Oprainfall writes: "The Wii U has only been available to pre-order for two days so far and the Deluxe model is selling out already at certain retailers. We’ve decided to make a list of online retailers to help direct you where you can buy a Wii U and if you can still get the Deluxe model or not."

I work for GameStop and yesterday 4:30 central time corporate sent us an email saying we were sold out of deluxe and only have basic

ZeekQuattro4239d ago

I preordered today and that is indeed all they had. Kinda sucks but oh well.

XHeavygunX4238d ago

And bad thing is most of them are going on eBay. I work there and preordered one also but the lady before me reserved 2 and I wasn't about to question her. I also have paid off a black pro controller, zombiU Mario, and assassins creed 3 and I'm gonna keep mine. Even if I wanted to sell it if I was ever caught I'd loose my job and that's a risk I'm not willing to take being an assistant manager

Daoshai4238d ago

No offense but its a gamestop maybe it'll do you good to get fired in the long run.

joeyisback4239d ago

ya that sucks i didnt have the money to preorder till today and no more deluxe sucks for me thats what i wanted to preorder

darthv724239d ago

My friend sent me a text saying he pre ordered 4. I was a bit surprised but then again. I pre ordered 2 myself. 1 of each.

I guess people realize alot of these people are going to put these on e-bay for insane prices.

PopRocks3594239d ago

Of course! Keep an eye out on YouTube during launch day. Guaranteed someone will upload a video of them destroying a Wii U in front of a line of people waiting to get one.

@ inb4its2late

I lucked out and found a deluxe at my local best buy today. I guess they had problems and couldn't reserve any the first few days.

I am Wang till both Sony and ms announce their specs. I am getting ps4 because I know Sony will support it well, I think this time instead of buying xbox720 I may go with wiiu because I am much more interested in Nintendo exclusives since MS has the same 3-4 exclusives.

And when I do buy it most likely at a sale with a bundle

Raider694239d ago (Edited 4239d ago )

im sure that N will supply more until the release day.

Raider694239d ago (Edited 4239d ago )

I got my pré sale were in EU and it comes it zumbi-u and even brigs a pró-controler!I guess nintendo provide diferent packs for EU since we are already being SCREWED at the price,that is higher than in US .nINTENDO IS ALWAYS SCREWING EU CUSTOMERS.

kiddster584239d ago

Go To toys r us. You can preorder for 20 bucks and I preordered today at 430. People forget about toys r us. The only people that go their are parents. Gamers really never shop their like they do other stores.

bitboi4239d ago

Wii U games that still haven't been ported to Switch

The Nintendo Switch is potentially nearing its lifespan, and several Wii U games haven't found their way over as ports yet.

I think it's better to leave games like AC: Amiibo Festival and Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash forgotten on the Wii U. Best case, they are mediocre games; worse case, they are very bad. It was a dark time for the Wii U, and the first only exists to sell Amiibo cards, whereas the second was put together in a couple of months with a shoestring budget, and it shows.

The rest of the list does have some really cool games, though. I would love to see a remake of Star Fox Zero with decent controls, and Xenoblade X doesn't require that much modification to work.

How would XCX work without dual screens functionality?

Cacabunga3d ago

Same as Paper Mario color splash. One of the best wiiu games and getting even better with dual screen. Same reason why i prefer Splatoon 1

Profchaos3d ago

This article leaves out Nintendo's most controversial game to date devils Third.
I personally found the cover system really fun in that one compared to at the time most fps games completely lacking one.

Stevonidas3d ago

Devil's Third is HIGHLY underrated.

repsahj3d ago

They should remake Starfox to the switch 2. Very beautiful game during gamecube days.

Chocoburger2d ago

Kirby is always ignored or forgotten by people, so good to see it mentioned here.
Play Kirby Canvas Curse on DS, and then play Rainbow Curse on Wii U, they're really fun and unique 'platformers' without any actual jumping.
