[news]: Nintendo announces WiiU launch plans, pricing.

During a Nintendo press conference held today, Nintendo FINALLY let all the details out of the bag about the WiiU. For starters, the WiiU will launch in North America on November 18th of this year. They’ve also announced that the system will be available in two bundles; Basic and Deluxe. The Basic set will run you a smooth $299, while the Deluxe set will go for $349. Given that the original Wii launched for $249, and given today’s standard pricing for higher end gaming consoles, the WiiU falls right into what we had expected the system to cost. I’ve included images released by Nintendo giving a breakdown of what you can expect from each bundle. Games for the WiiU will run you an average of $59.99, matching the price point of today’s current generation titles. There has been no announcement as far as the pricing for a standalone tablet controller for the system will run, nor is Nintendo even supporting a second tablet at launch, though they have already confirmed support later on. Current Wii owners shouldn’t dash to their local used game store yet to trade them in yet, the WiiU will require the original if you want to transfer over all of your content. We’ll keep you posted as we get closer to the WiiU’s launch date. Continue reading »
