Posted on 12 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in Site updates, Wii U | 0 comments

Well well well, just 24 hours until the midnight of November 18th here in Minnesota. Needless to say, I am pretty darn excited! That being said, me and the podcast crew have an awful lot of stuff to get done both before, on, and after that day, so I figured I’d fill you in on our current plans for tomorrow, Sunday, and beyond:
November 17th
Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two Review
This review will cover the Wii version of the game, reviewed by Austin.
Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion Review
3DS game, reviewed by Laura.
The Wii U Metacritic Score Predictions Game!
Austin will try and guess the arbitrary review score numbers of every Wii U launch title, courtesy of the only-slightly-evil website Metacritic. We’ll check his accuracy next week…
November 18th (Launch Day!)
Here’s a Podcast – Episode 16!
Primarily focused on our impressions of everything Wii U-related, the sixteenth episode of “Here’s a Podcast!” should be recorded and posted by 10PM Sunday night.
8PM EST (6PM PST): Wii U Livestream
Similar to what we did for the Extra Life 24-Hour Gaming marathon, Austin, Jack, Laura, and potentially one or two others will spend a few hours playing various Wii U games, taking questions, talking to you guys, and playing games requested by people.
The Following Week/Weekend
ZombiU Review (Austin)
New Super Mario Bros. U Review (Jack)

Nintendo delivered an unexpected surprise today. Earlier today, the company announced that the Wii U’s Nintendo TVii application would not be ready for the console’s launch. The new plan is to have it ready to go in December.
Nintendo TVii was widely expected to be available on day-one. So why the delay? According to Nintendo, the move was made to provide “a great experience for consumers”.
Nintendo assures consumers that the app will be released as soon as possible next month.
