Nintendo Wii U Preview Event Highlights in Real-time

Nintendo is hosting a media event in New York unveiling the Wii U release date and price for the United States and Europe. We will post here the highlights of the event. You can also watch it in a live video stream. The Wii U goes on sale in Japan on December 8. 

Nintendo will of course also put a lot of emphasis on the launch titles for the Wii U. As said before, I am totally underwhelmed by the Wii U. Consoles have become media centers and gaming is just one thing they offer. Right now the Xbox 360 is offering the most. The Wii U is just starting and the new way of gaming is just not enough to make this thing a mega seller. But hey, maybe Reggie will say something today that makes me a believer.
