"Platform: Nintendo Wii"

Yeah...it looks like Nintendo didn't get the message across that the system was brand new. That's disappointing, to say the least

A Bit More On Topic: 200 British pounds comes out to be a little over $300 USD, so that's not a bad final price. If the console also comes packaged with Nintendoland, then I can see the price being easily justifiable.

EDIT: That July 14th, 2012 release date sure is interesting. While it's most likely wrong, it's interesting that it's a specific date as compared to a blanket date such as "November, 2012" or something akin.

So it is, I looked on the mobile site to begin with and it doesn't show it there!

What's everyone make of it then?

Sounds cheap so go for it people in Europe.
Sure won't be getting it on July 14th though.
And I'd laugh if that's just for the black model like it says, which isn't available at launch, so everyone that orders one has to wait for the black model or something.

I pre-ordered mine months ago from EB Games here in Australia, still don't know the exact price but it'll be a lot more than that.

I wasn't actually going to get a Wii U at launch but at that price what the hell...... I've pre ordered one.

If it turns out to be a mistake on Amazons part do they still honour that price does anyone know? Or do they have the right to "apologise" and cancel my order?

I know there's the price gurentee thing so if the price goes up we are guenteed to get it at that price, but if it's a genuine mistake and they aren't really ready to take pre orders yet what will happen

I missed out. Oh well, looking forward to finding out what kind of incentives there will be out there for preordering anyway.
