King of Pirates truly is back from the dead. After hearing that the game hasn’t been cancelled and will ship in Japan next year, it’s also been made known that it will be playable at this year’s Jump Festa.
Attendees can try out a sample of King of Pirates on December 22 and December 23. Other titles such as Monster Hunter 4, New Super Mario Bros. U, and Nintendo Land will be playable as well.
Yet another indication that excitement for the Wii U is quite high: UK video game retailer GAME has said that they are expecting their Wii U stock to sell out prior to launch, but those who pre-ordered the system should get their units. This doesn’t just apply to the Deluxe Bundle either; the basic white SKU’s day-one stock has been offered to people as available for pre-order, which means it has sold out as well.
What this means is that GAME signed up everyone for pre-orders, then used their regular ol’ launch day stock to sign MORE people up for pre-orders and now those have sold out as well.
I imagine things are going to be pretty hectic for a few weeks for the Wii U…
Not sure quite what it’s about, but Nintendo has told everyone that its 3DS eShop, the DSiWare Shop, and the Wii Shop Channel will be down for maintenance tomorrow, Tuesday, November 6th. Some people are saying that this could have something to do with the Wii U launch– perhaps some implementation of the “Nintendo Network ID” we’ve heard to much about– but I’m guessing that it’ll set some things up being the scenes that we’ll hear more about properly a week or two from now.
Don’t get too excited just yet!
