Not pictured: next door café

We're still over a month away from Nintendo's official reveal of its Wii successor, but that doesn't mean retailers aren't keen to get in there early and start securing customer interest.

Several Nintendo Life readers have reported UK retail chain Gamestation has already started registering customer interest in the new console under the name Project Café, though there's no word if stablemate GAME is offering the same service.

We're informed it's unlikely any information will be sent out to customers until after Nintendo's E3 presentation, and that this is not a deposit to secure a console, but even so it seems a little early in the day to start capturing customer data for a console we know nothing about.

Thanks to the readers who submitted this tip.
