Questions about the Wii U

How much does it cost?

When can I buy one?

What is included in the box?

How much do the Wii U games cost? (I’m not paying $60 for NSMB U when it is still using the editor from NSMB Wii)

When is the E-Shop going to be available? (if not at launch, then I’m not rushing out to buy a Wii U. Wii’s Virtual Console was available at launch. I refuse to be manipulated to buy crappy retail launch games [which are ports from the crappy HD twins])

What games will be available on the E-Shop?

Will the games be account bound? (they’ve said yes to this, but ‘seeing is believing’ when it comes to Nintendo and online)

Will I be able to move my Wii’s Virtual Console games over to the account?

Nintendo better answer these questions. I’m more interested in the E-shop than anything else on the system. Retail games overshoot my needs or to say what Iwata said six years ago: “I don’t want to eat steak all the time. Sometimes, I just want soup.”

Where is the soup, Nintendo?


Above: Malstrom’s ultimate question concerning the Wii U: “Will Nintendo deny us the soup?” It would be most unfortunate if Nintendo denies us the soup.
