Edit: Valay says I would know more about it than he… but unfortunately I’ve yet to find the zombie that the dev team speaks of! A map showed up on Miiverse a few hours ago but I’ve been unable to find it since, so in the meantime I’ll just wander around. If I find it I’ll let everyone know what it was.

GameStop has debunked rumors that its Wii U wait list has been cancelled outright. Instead, the retailer has decided to stop taking registrations.

Nintendo has pre-installed a LOVEFiLM Instant app on some European Wii Us. It isn’t clear if every single territory in the contintent will be receiving the functionality, but the channel has been confirmed for Austria thus far.

It should be noted that the actual app isn’t working yet. Presumably it will go live when Europe’s day-one Wii U update is made available.
