Rumor: Nintendo releasing Wii U in Australia on December 6
Posted on August 13, 2012 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii U
Now that we’re starting to close in on a Wii U release date announcement, speculation is running wild. The latest rumor, coming from Kotaku, concerns the console’s Australian launch.
The site reports that Nintendo will ship Wii U on December 6. An unnamed Australian retailer provided Kotaku with the unconfirmed date and also said that every pre-order at EB will be fulfilled.
Nintendo won’t say when it plans to launch Wii U, but a December 6 release date isn’t entirely far-fetched. When the Wii came out, it launched on December 7 in Australia, which is also a Thursday.
We’re probably about a month away from an official Wii U release date reveal. Nintendo is expected to share launch information sometime next month.
