@Nitendnut That's a good idea. I may not be able to post my experience's on launch day due to the Wii U being shipped to my house.

The Mii Maker music reminds me of Super Mario Galaxy Hopefully I will get a chance to share my experience but im sure that I wont get a chance because Ill be to busy with my Wii U

To those who aren't getting it at launch: no news will probably be good news. People having fun with the system will have much less reason to chat on forums. People who dislike it will, of course, have more time to complain about it. So I take it the initial impressions you hear will not include the opinions of the very satisfied, you'll have to wait until they are past their initial hyped obsession and are ready to talk.

I am new to the site.I am getting the Deluxe set with NSMBU on launch day!Hope everyone have a great,sane and relaxing 5 day wait!

Welcome to NintendoLife! Wish I could get NSMBU on launch day....

Lol! I will have it launch day. And I will likely post periodically inbetween gaming sessions. I hate that we have a three hour appointment that evening. However I'll be back on after that!

Getting my deluxe on release day. I will comment on everything, and I mean everything.. (about the wiiu)

Scott moffit stated today that the wii U would have some sort of "extra" shipment in that would mean that each store would have a small handful of non-preorder units besides the ones in the store... Please oh god be true! I want to get one so badly, I'm lining up in front of sears on sunday at 8 am to get it.

I have a good change at getting it at the store Im planning to buy it at a place that people will probably not go to to buy the Wii U >=)

I'm going to wait for there to be more games that I want

This launch has really crept up on me. I certainly haven't been thinking about it too much the last few weeks. Since I won't get the Wii U for a while I am more interested in initial reactions to just the general interface.

I've literally never been more excited about anything in my entire life

Me too, friend. I have a whole backstory excuse on why I'm so excited, but nice to see someone else who's as hyped as me.

Getting tired of chatting about it and just want the darn thing already.
Patience starts to die these last few days.

I will have to join this hype train aswell, I am so pumped. This is probably my most anticipated anything of all time @-@

I'll be back after the midnight launch to post my impressions.

I will have to come back here after I get mine (which unfortunately will not be at midnight) to share my Nintendo ID with people. Need some equally hyped friends on my new machine.

YES!

YES!

YES!!!!

I got a preorder in for the basic set wii U. AND IT WAS THE LAST ONE IN THE MALL. At Target! I'm so happy, I don't care if I don't get 32 GB, I have 2 flash drives to use on it anyway! (Though My 8 GB one was used by my grandma once to move files... I hope it will work)

just be carefull with the usb flash drives if you leave it on all the time its going to die out faster

All aboard the Hype Train! I don't want to miss my seat.

I purchased my ticket at E3 2011
