Are You Going To Buy A Wii U?

The Wii U comes out on November 18. That day is Sunday. The Sunday that's two days from the day that is today. This day being Friday, November 16. Are you going to get in line and buy one? Or two?

Personally I've never actually stayed in line during a midnight launch for a system, but I've always kind of wanted to. I don't think I'll be getting the Wii U on launch day however. I'd prefer to save my money. The only game I'm really interested in playing is New Super Mario Bros. U. But I'm also interested in checking out the TVii functionality.

What about you? Are there any Wii U games you're looking forward to playing? Are you picking up a system? Are you going to a midnight launch? Or are you just going to walk into the store sometime in the afternoon and pick up your preorder? Let me live vicariously through you. If you're still trying to figure out which launch games to check out, read our top Wii U picks

  • Hell yeah, preordered my deluxe. :)
  • I am absolutely getting a Wii U! Looking forward to New Super Mario Bros. U. I doubt I'll go to a midnight launch. I'll probably try to get there when the store would normally opens.
  • going midnight to get mine!

  • Unfortunately, no. I decided to buy a Vita this year instead. It'll happen, though. Especially when a new Zelda game is announced.
  • Once I get the money, i'd love a WiiU!

  • Picking up preorder after work. Was lukewarm on Mario U because I just beat every stage in New Super Mario Bros. 2 and I still don't know what makes the level design better than usual.

    Definitely getting Zombi U. Thinking about Blops 2 and Assassin's Creed 3. Live through me Mr. Reeves!

  • Mod
    Not yet. There are a lot of titles that look good - Nintendo Land, Pikmin 3, The Wonderful 101, ZombiU, Tank Tank Tank, Game & Wario, Lego City Undercover, and Scribblenauts Unlimited - but nothing screams "must-buy" yet. Plus I never buy consoles at launch. Plus I don't really have the money right now...
  • Absolutely! Picking mine up Sunday at Best Buy. ZombieU!!!!!
  • Eventually probably mid 2013.

  • Pre-ordered Deluxe. May get All-Stars Racing Tansformed.

  • Telekinesis has been patented and copyrighted by the cranes of Oregon. Infringement could result in death.
  • I'm picking up both of mine Sunday morning since Gamestop isn't doing a midnight release. I'm getting Super Mario, and I'm on the fence but leaning towards getting ZombiU and Scribblenauts. I'll have to wait for GI's reviews or a few others.
  • Nah...i'll wait and see, but now it dosnt seem like a 'must gave' item.
  • Still not sure. I have one reserved at Target just in case.
  • I have my pre-order being shipped. Still on the fence about keeping it or selling it though. Guess it's going to be a gametime decision.

  • ...meh...
  • I wish I was their for the midnight launch, but it hasn't released in Europe yet. I'll be there when it does, though!

  • I think I'll wait for it. My friend is getting one and he likes to bring over games and consoles so I'll get to try it out for myself.
  • I am hopeing to just order it online,I definitely want one the the question is can I get one or will they sell out before I can get one, I want black ops II for the wii u, of course mario Wii U, and then possibly zombie U
  • I am not really interested in it for some reason, but once a 3D Mario or Smash Bros game comes out I am sure I'll get one
