Rumor: Wii U Price and Date Outed by VPD (video game distributor)

Story here

VPD is a distributor used by numerous stores to distribute video games. Their clients include the likes of Amazon. A listing on their site suggests that the Wii U will launch on November 11th in North America in three different bundles, priced at $249.99, $299.99, and $349.99. The $250 bundle seems to be just the system while the other two variants come with something packed in, possibly a game and/or controller.

So, which bundle are you buying? I'm definitely waiting to see what the bundles are since I want NintendoLand and am hoping it comes bundled with the system. I don't really need another Wiimote as I've got like 5 floating around the house, but wouldn't mind a second gamepad or one of the new Pro controllers for multiplayer.

If there is one, the one with ZombiU in it.

But usually over here when a console gets released it comes with 1 extra controller and a game, I've noticed that trend.

Some European promotional material has surfaced with a launch date of 12/7 at the price of €349.

€349 seems rather steep, especially if we take the US prices to be accurate (unless this price is for a top-end bundle, of course).

I wont buy the console at launch as a thumb rule for me i need at least 30 games that intrest me before i make an inversion (hence why i am buying a PS2 too many JRPG's i see there that intrest me and badly) anyway i talked with a friend of mine who directs the comic con and it's a die hard fan of the Xbox 360 and the PC gaming he told me he was highly intreste in the wiiU, if some one who dint even paid attention to the GC him being attracted to the wiiu seems intresting
