Wii U Launch

Pikmin 3

Is that a launch title? Because that would be neat.

nope:( They have also confirmed there won't be online multiplayer for Pikmin 3.  If you haven't played the MP on Pikmin 2, it's amazing.  I was really hoping for online MP in 3, but what are you gonna do?

No WiiU for me.  At least not at launch.  Too many details that are really important to me are still too sketchy/unclear.

Day 1 for me Assassin's Creed III and Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 here I come

OH GOD!! I'm having horrible flashbacks to obtaining the steelbook for Mortal Kombat for Izret. Futureshop.ca is hands down the worst online shopping service I have ever been a part of. Even for something cool like that I'm gonna refuse to shop there.

@wildbil - I'm under the impression that Pikmin 3 is a launch title. The guy at the til this morning when I pre-ordered my Deluxe Wii U Bundle even had it in his system as Nov.18. And it does have co-op multi-player during the story's campaign apparently.

Ooh, that's pretty good news for day 1 purchasers.

I preordered the Deluxe today, and not 15 minutes after I did so, Gamestop cut off the preorders for it. Glad I did that now. 

Plus, it seems as though Amazon has also cut off preorders for it as well. It's the Wii launch all over again.

Grrrr. Figures, I just got back into town tonight.

I'm going to try my local Gamestop tomorrow to see if I can still squeak in, but if not my Dad is a manager at a retail joint, so I'll have to go that route.

Assassin's Creed III? That should be your first title guy

It looks like Best Buy still has them for pre-order, but they want all of the funds up front? Ugh, no thanks. Looks like I will either miss launch day or be waiting in a line.

i didn't realise the pre-orders for the deluxe edition would run out that fast, i'm going first thing tomorrow to pre-order mine then. it doesn't look like they've stopped up here yet. i'm just glad i have enough money available for the deposit, my original plan was to wait until next friday when i get paid but i should be able to do the $50 no problem.

anyone in canada able to confirm if they're still available in many places? i have 3 EB games to choose from locally, hopefully one of them will have it.

edit: looks like canada's pre-orders only started on the 14th, so i should be able to grab one i hope. also from what i've read gamestop is nearly sold out across the entire US.

The guy that I talked to at EB Games said they started taking order on the 14th too. He also told me they basic bundle was all gone and only deluxes were still up for grabs.

i managed to get a Deluxe pre-ordered , also the girl at EB told me they're only accepting pre-orders until monday, so there's still time for canadians.

Nintendo is so annoying to cheapskates like myself.

I was just in a store today. A bunch of copies of Xenoblade Chronicles, Last Story and Pandora's Tower. All at €40-45. I do want these games, but not at those prices, damnit!

It's also stupid when something says "Limited edition" (the latest Zelda game) and the store has 30-40 copies sitting there. And this whole Wii section is hidden away somewhere next to CD's. I wonder who buys those games anymore. Hardly anyone, I recon. Maybe in a few months they'll get so desperate to get rid of their stock that they'll cut the price massively or take a loss. The day those games hit €15, I'm in!

EDIT: Pandora's Tower wasn't even released in the US? Lol, random.

Nah, I'm pretty sure it was premeditated...

...the bastards.
