Nintendo Wii U

A user from Gamespot recently uploaded a video about Nintendo's next generation game console: the Wii U. We get information that the console has appeared on the pre-order list on Amazon, Blockbuster and Overstock. It's said the release day will be November 11st and 3 different Wii U SKUs ($250,$300 and $350) are available. We have no details currently about what exactly included in the SKUs, but they're believed to be new popular games or extra game controllers.

Wii U Pro Controller

As the successor of Wii, the Wii U owns some special new features. It's equipped with a new controller named Wii U GamePad, looks like a touchscreen tablet. Besides the Wii U GamePad, the second controller named Pro Controller was released at the E3 2012 expo. The Pro Controller has more traditional design than the former one. It's produced to attract "hardcore" users in order to win competition with Sony's PlayStation 3 and Microsoft's XBox 360. What's more, it's believed that the new console is compatible with games of Wii and NGC.

Nintendo has announced nearly 70 third-party games for Wii U,such as Assassin's Creed III, Batman: Arkham City Armored Edition, FIFA 13, Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth and so on. To know more about the games, please visit the list from wikipedia.

Nintendo used to release their new products on sundays. GameCube was released on November 18th, 2001; DS was released on November 21st,2004; Wii was released on November 19th,2006. So it's quite reasonable for the Wii U's releasing on the middle 10 days of November.
