Preparing for the UK Wii U Launch? Get the Latest Details from Nintendo

November 23, 2012 by Julie Horup

Nintendo announces launch plan in the UK.

If you're thinking about getting a Wii U when it launches in the UK next week, you might want to take a look at the latest plans about the launch, which Nintendo announced today.

According to Eurogamer, HMV's flagship store on Oxford Street in London will be open at midnight, where the doors open at 11 pm on November 29. If you're among the first 100 customers, you'll get New Super Mario Bros. U and another free game.

There's also a £5 off Wii U hardware or software for the next 100 people, and the first 500 people get goody bags. With what inside, we don't know, but everyone loves goody bags, right?

And if you're worried that HVM will be out of stock before you get your hands on a Wii U, don't:

"We're thrilled to be hosting the Official Midnight Launch Event for Wii U at our Oxford Street flagship," said HMV's games boss Ewan Pinder. "[It's] fast-becoming the natural home of all major games launches in the UK."
