The Wii may be getting another, smaller redesign. Rumor has it that a “major retailer” is listing the Wii mini console in its internal release schedule.

Assuming this is true, the updated system would release on December 7 – that’s in two weeks.

Numerous UK retailers are reporting Wii U sell-outs at their shops a week before the console hits the territory.

Pre-orders have been high, which doesn’t leave much inventory for remaining stock. MCV writes that “some retailers have told us their already taken orders against future Wii U shipments.”

HMV may be the one bright spot in terms of available inventory. The retailer apparently obtained some extra stock for its midnight launch.

We have a slightly better idea as to when the ZombiU demo will be available. One of the game’s developer has confirmed that the download will be hitting the Wii U eShop before December 15.

Let’s hope the Rayman Legends demo will also be out by then…

A few issues have plagued the Wii U launch. Users have encountered freezing problems, for instance, and one user even manged to gain access to a Miiverse mock menu.

Although it hasn’t been smooth sailing for Nintendo, EEDAR analyst Jesse Divnich says the Wii U was successful. Divnich is also not at all concerned that the console will perform well on the market throughout the holiday season.

“The Nintendo Wii-U launch was a success. There were issues. Issues that are common among hardware launches and Nintendo should address them over time. Nintendo will have a successful holiday season, as they always do. I have no concerns about the Wii-U’s success through the holidays.”
