I'm hyped for launch. Only getting Ninja Gaiden with a pro controller and TTT2. Anything else I'm interested in, which there is plenty of I will pick up after I'm done with NG3.

Does the Wii U have custom soundtracks?

 

[Backfoggen]

Shit is out in the wild

Why hasn't that dude uploaded a video showing off everything yet.

 

[Purexed]

So I got my Best Buy confirmation email my WiiU has shipped. Should I expect arrival tomorrow or Monday? The email wasn't clear on delivery date.

 

[Wiz]

Nice Target bundle. Speaking of target, has anyone got a shipping confirmation from them yet? They already charged my card but on their site it still says "not yet shipped".

99.99% chance it is Monday.

From Nintendo: online play, backwards compatibility, Miiverse and eShop are all in the Day One update. Delay only for video apps.

phew

 

[Beckx]

And mine has shipped (Gamestop) - tracking data not in the system yet, so no estimate from UPS. Expecting Monday, though.

Unfortunately Amazon isn't doing prime release date shipping for ZombiU. If I knew for sure it would be on the eshop I'd cancel. Might still.

 

[GiantEnemyGoomba]

Shit is out in the wild

It's starting.

 

[Freezie KO]

Has anyone picked up a copy of Call of Duty yet? If so, is there a code for Nuketown in the box?

That's fine for me, I can wait for the other apps.

The delay isn't too bad, it's not like it's until next year.

 

[Vyse The Legend]

They have stock on Target with Sunday delivery:

Deluxe + NSMB Wii U bundle, though.

 

[VeryGooster]

Waiting (hoping) for my Toys R Us order to ship soon.

Do they have the update now?

Someone I believe here picked the game up and there was no code.

Exactly what I said was going to happen in the other thread when people started freaking out about the eShop. Good to hear confirmation.

 

[The Elite]

Apparently Nuketown will be downloadable but no one knows when.

 

[soulassssns]

My Gamestop preorder still says "open". Sigh...... So hyped right now.

 

[Soi-Fong]

Uh so I reserved this about 2 or so months ago in BB with those kiosks they have. Am I guaranteed a system Sun?

 

[Linkhero1]

Someone I believe hear picked the game up and there was no code.

Could be on the disk, maybe?

 

[kunonabi]

Mine has shipped as well from GS. No tracking yet. Any outside chance of it arriving tomorrow or is Monday the best I can expect?

 

[The Elite]

Uh so I reserved this about 2 or so months ago in BB with those kiosks they have. Am I guaranteed a system Sun?

Do you have a preorder receipt? Call them up.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Could be on the disk, maybe?

Yes, a special Mario themed Nuketown.

Believe.

 

[Shadow Hog]

So how long until the video of somebody taking a sledgehammer to it? It's practically a new-console tradition at this point.

 

[Freezie KO]

Thanks.

Yes, a special Mario themed Nuketown.

Believe.

Imagine if Nintendo sent Retro on a trip to Treyarch to do a Metroid-themed exclusive map. Tears would be shed by the CoD fanbase.

 

[Linkhero1]

Yes, a special Mario themed Nuketown.

Believe.

I doubt. If anything, they'll put in an Animal Crossing themed Nooktown.

 

[Beckx]

Do they have the update now?

Gerstmann tweeted overnight that the reason they aren't doing reviews for NSMBU or Nintendoland is that they are waiting for the day one patch.

 

[cyberheater]

Those Nintendo servers are going to get hammered on launch day. I fear the meltdown.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Do they have the update now?

don't think so. but let me ask

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I doubt. If anything, they'll put in an Animal Crossing themed Nooktown.

Time to make Crazy Redd my bitch.

 

[Soi-Fong]

Do you have a preorder receipt? Call them up.

Yup I do.

Just called up my local BB. Basically told me they have only enough for the Pre-orders they got in so as long as I have the receipt I should be good. Woman also told me they won't be selling the systems they have for the general public except to those who Pre-ordered at least at launch day.

 

[Got the Shakes]

My Gamestop preorder still says "open". Sigh...... So hyped right now.

I got an email 20 minutes ago saying it shipped and my order status changed to closed. I'm sure all orders will be doing the same soon.

 

[Shin Johnpv]

NewEgg orders are still at Pending Pre-Order. Has anyone's order changed yet?

The email response I got from NewEgg was that they wouldn't be shipping the games until Monday or Tuesday.

 

[Nostremitus]

So the Gamestop that i pre-ordered from because the store manager sold me on the midnight launch isn't even having one... wth...

...at least my preorder is still valid.

 

[TriGen]

So how long until the video of somebody taking a sledgehammer to it? It's practically a new-console tradition at this point.

Right after midnight on the 18th, no doubt.

 

[Opus Angelorum]

Hype!

 

[ChosenPredator]

im sure someone will upload a video tonight maybe even stream it O.O!! dun dun dun

 

[_woLf]

Just got an email from Gamestop, my Wii U has shipped!

Still not sold on the thing, but I guess there's no going back now. If I change my mind I can always sell it.

 

[sandrockgundam04]

Basic preorder paid off at GameStop, Kmart order for a Deluxe still lingering and just grabbed a Deluxe bundle at Target (which actually sent a confirmation email and took out the full amount of money from my bank account), so I'm hopeful to at least get 1 of each, maybe 2 Deluxes if Kmart actually comes through.

 

[number47]

swag swag, gamestop shipped my system out. anyone going to the nintendo world party? aka...hanging out with triforce for 6 hours.

 

[codhand]

GAMESTOP HAS SHIPPED!

 

[Stormwatch]

Woo hoo! My spare Wii U just shipped with Next Day shipping from GameStop. It begins...

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

[richiek]

[commish]

Mine just shipped. Sweet.

Mine just shipped. Sweet.

 

[inc77]

Just got home from my local Gamestop. Paid off my pre-order (Wii U Deluxe, ZombiU, and a Pro-controller). Sadly no midnight launch and no early opening

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

And here I am waiting like a chump.

 

[Wiz]

Mine hasn't shipped. C'mon Target...supposed to be Sunday delivery too.

 

[_woLf]

Boo, won't be delivered until Monday...was hoping for Sunday delivery.

Oh well.

Why so many Wii U's?
