Wii-U - Amazon listing UK prices and launch date

My NNID is Traipez - feel free to add me :D That goes to everyone. Be sure to add people in Miiverse (User Menu > Seach users) instead of in the friendlist, because you only get a friend request when using Miiverse. Strange, but yeah.

Holy shit way, did Amazon just send everyone who bought the Premium pack a free eShop download for Nintendo Land because some didn't get it in the pack? Damn! Not sure if I should use it, as I did get the game in my Premium pack...

Yes, I just got that too. Cex offer £30 for Nintendo Land too. I probably will keep the game but again Amazon coming through with some way beyond the call of duty customer service here.
 
Hmm, hope my one comes with Nintendoland. Would prefer the box copy rather than have it take up space on the hard drive.

Was anyone else's Club Nintendo leaflet codeless? Is that normal?
Surely you should get points for registering the Wii U?
 
Damn, that's nice of Amazon. I got my ZombiU bundle today from gamemania. I wouldn't mind a NintendoLand code :)

To get your 1000 points for the WiiU, you need to go into your Club Nintendo account online and fill out the survery next to your console. I think it's under My Account > My Registered Games & Systems > Survey for Points.
 
If I track my HDNL package through amazon or hdnl.co.uk it says it's been out for delivery since this early this morning, but if I track using parcels2go.com it says it ended up back at the depot this afternoon. No delivery attempts have been made according to my IP cam. I contacted amazon and they extended my prime service, I guess that's something.

Kind of pissed off, have just phoned TNT to ask why my packaged hadn't arrived. Apparently their driver clocked off before getting to mine, so I have to arrange re-delivery. When I said I wanted it tomorrow, the guy told me that it would have to be next week some time, then suggested that I drive to their depot to pick it up - which is 30 miles away.

They're phoning me back in half an hour to let me know if a delivery tomorrow is possible. Lord help me GAF I'm actually tempted to drive over to sodding Rotherham tonight just to play this thing.

Sorry to hear that. If it was me. I'd already be in my car.
 
It's nice that amazon sent me the download code, but I'll keep on them to send me a retail box, as that's my preference - and what was advertised.

Really tempted to use it though
 
So not only did I get my Premium pack for £199, but I also got a free Nintendo Land eShop voucher.. amazon must be Santa!
 
Few UK NNID's from this thread.

- Load Miiverse
- Go to User Menu (upper-left corner, with a small picture of your Mii)
- The fourth option down says 'Search User'
- Type in the name you want. (Say 'RichIGN')
- The name must be specific (though case is not important)
- View the profile
- Towards the right side you'll see the Friend Request button, near 'Follow' and a drop-down arrow that allows you to Block or Report.
- Want to request another? Head back to your User Menu.

it's great. I wasn't sure after the reviews, but I've been playing non stop for about 4 hours now. it's crazy addictive and really very challenging. the controls take some getting used to but it's one of the best games to show off the potential of the gamepad.

best game at launch in my opinion.

No doubt

I'd recommend ZombiU to everyone, it's a great game. One of the best survival horror games in a long time.

definitely. the death mechanic is great as well, I love going after my former dead self and beating the crap out of them with the cricket bat. very nice way to blow off some steam after the frustration of dying.

Well I'm charging the controller before I begin. How long should I expect that to take?

Good to see my Nintendoland case isn't holy and doesn't have a massive USK logo on it.

I quite like how modest the system looks.

Have it plugged in while you do the initial setup, download, install steps. Those take ages, so it will be fully charged by the time they're done.
 
if anyone would really prefer the nintendoland disc, we can swap. i think its a keeper and having it digital would be convenient

I'd say if you mad keen on it you would have pre-ordered one by now. Otherwise. Just wait until early next year. There should be more games available and the firmware updates would have fixed most of the bigger issue by then.

..and it'll still be the same price so why not jump in now?
 
Pretty impressed so far.

No issues with controlling my tv or connected to my wifi. The pad is nicer then I though it would be and the sound coming out of the pads speakers are pretty decent.
The touch response is also great.

/Breaths sigh of relief.

Doing the update now. It might take a while. And then I'll have to pack it all up again for Xmas.

Just had an email from Amazon saying that some premium packs were supplied without Nintendo Land, and to download it from the eshop using a code. Anyone else received the same email?

why would only amazon premiums not have nintendoland? anyone else not had it from a different retailer?

I got a WiiU Premium Nintendoland from ToyrUs. Wife picked it up this morning. No problems.
 
Is it weird that one of my favourite features on the console, is the small white light to indicate that there is a disc currently in the drive? Just a nice little touch in case you forget there's already a game in there.
