Nintendo prepares Wii U announcement for Europe.
GeneralPosted on Tuesday, September 11th, 2012 at 5:42 PM by Tim Bowers
A few weeks ago Nintendo announced that it would be holding a conference in New York to showcase the Wii U.
At the time no announcement was given with regards to a European event but now Nintendo have announced that they will be streaming a new Nintendo Direct preview aimed at the European market.
The Nintendo Direct Wii U Preview will be streamed on 13 September at 3pm UK Time, this will be around the same time that Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime will take to the stage in New York.
The Nintendo Direct preview will be hosted by Nintendo of Europe President Satoru Shibata and will take a closer look at the upcoming console.
The press release confirms that the console will be released this holiday (Christmas) season but we will have to wait and see if the rumours of a delayed European release due to “manufacturing issues” are true. If they are this means that the Wii U won’t see a European release until December with all signs of an American release sometime in November.
You’ll be able to watch the Nintendo Direct Wii U Preview on Thursday at Nintendo Direct website (UK) http://nintendo.co.uk/nintendodirect
