GameStop Wii U Listing Doesn’t Confirm Anything


Posted by Steve Hannley on 02 Aug 2012



Today, a “leaked” photo of a GameStop flyer has been circulating online with many in the media speculating that it’s revealed the Wii U launch titles. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case. Ignoring the fact that it’s a sidebar on one page of a pamphlet, no release dates are listed. It simply states “holiday” or “launch window”. It’s common practice for GameStop and other game retailers to release preliminary lists of upcoming titles for newly launched systems.

In reality, the list is simply copies from a photo on Nintendo’s E3 Press Site. If you take a look at their list, not only are all the titles and release windows the same, but the games are even in the exact order.

While we’d all love to know what games will be available for the Wii U launch, this simply isn’t it.

One day I plan to expose my child to no American history besides what they can pick up from playing Assassin's Creed III. Then I'm going to drop him or her into a Social Studies class and mildly enjoy the outcome. I'm going to be a great father.
