Wii U

CVG, which claims to have been in contact with a host of different sources, is writing that Nintendo may not have enough stock of Wii U units in the UK to meet demand from pre-orders.

The company will allegedly have only 25,000 units available at launch. One retail source said that the figure was “in line with our estimates”.

But not so fast. A third source at a separate UK retail chain said that shipment expectations were at “anything between 75,000 and 100,000 units during the launch period”.

“What we don’t know is whether this allocation will arrive on day one or be distributed across a number of weeks.”

The image above comes from Nintendo’s latest financial results materials. We posted it a few hours ago. One thing did slip over our heads, however: Need for Speed: Most Wanted in the Wii U’s third-party launch lineup list.

Oddly enough, the game is only listed for Europe. We’re also unsure when the game will be launching.

But at least this pretty much confirms things!

Nintendo will indeed be publishing Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate in Europe, and probably Australia as well. The news was first hinted at through a rating from the OFLC.

Nintendo UK tweeted earlier today:

“Prepare to hunt! We’ll be distributing Capcom’s #MonsterHunter 3 Ultimate for Nintendo #3DS and #WiiU by March 2013”
