Early 2012 goes right out of it
Nintendo's always said Wii U will be launched between April 2012 and the end of next year, but kiss goodbye to dreams of getting the machine before June.
Nintendo of America now states the console will be available between the beginning of E3 and the end of 2012, giving us a six month period during which Wii U could see release..
The company also confirmed it won't be showing anything new at CES, contrary to yesterday's rumour.
If you're hoping for an April 2012 or a May 2012 release, tough luck. It may come between when Nintendo E3 2012 begins and Tuesday, January 1, 2013. I don't mind that it isn't coming early, but I do want to know more information about the Wii U at E3 2012 before buying one.
