Its even better with the translated closed captioning. It makes absolutely no sense, but live ammunition, beer game pad, bringing the game pad to a nuclear power plant, and him being a badass were mentioned.

Here's a pic of the NSMBU world map from the instruction manual.  This map looks eerily familiar.....Where have I seen it before.....?

I saw a demo of the NSMBU in Best Buy, and nothing looks quite like Nintendo visuals.  The demo was in HD on a nice TV, and made it look so incredible that I'm considering buying a Wii U just to play it.

Yep, my local Gamestop and Walmart have demos up and I plan on getting NSMBU.  I have a 5 year old son and a wife, and we enjoy playing New Super Mario Bros Wii, so this is a no brainer for me.

I just found out that I can pick up my Wii U from my local Walmart at midnight on the 17th, well technically it would be the 18th.  Anyone else's Walmart doing this?  I wonder if Gamestop is doing thisor will be open at midnight.  I pre ordered Black Ops 2 from Gamestop, and I want to pick it up after I get my Wii U from Wal-Mart.  Anyone have any info?

Why is that?  Every other place I checked were sold out of pre orders, but Walmart was there for me.

Hmmm... The hype is growing for me. I think I will probably go out that day and seek one out. If I can't get one, no big deal. If I stumble upon one, I'll snag it up.

Wow, I just found out my local Gamestop isn't doing a midnight launch for the Wii U.  Now I'm glad I couldn't get a preordered deluxe model from them.  I guess it was fate that I got one preordered at Wal-Mart and they're doing a midnight launch.  I know to some people, there isn't much of a difference in time between midnight, and whatever time Gamestop opens on Sundays, but to me it means a lot.  Now I just hope Wal-Mart puts out the Wii U games for sale at midnight also.  I just canceled my Black Ops II preorder at Gamestop because of this.

I have to work until 7am so I can't pick mine up until the morning. Otherwise I would have liked to do a midnight event myself.

Don't feel too bad Crabby.  I have to work night and day shifts also and I just happened to be off this weekend.  You may have mentioned it before, but what games do you plan on getting?

I DEMAND A STAR FOX GAME FOR THE WII U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In all seriousness though, its basically the only reason I would buy one before the price drop.  Even as a Nintendo fanboy, i'm not excited enough to put in 350 quite yet.  plus I just miss my furry star friend  Cry
