Lucky Americans I can't wait for the EU release, but I don't think that I will be getting my WiiU on launch, since I was a bit late with my pre-order. Looking forward to your initial reactions!
I am looking forward too Miiverse the most! I just love the idea of mixing up games and social networking (in a proper fashion, I dislike facebook games :S).
I have played the demo. The demo confirmed my expectations: It is not a game I would like to buy. Poor graphics, gameplay that's doesn't appeal to me and sound that is compressed so much that it sounds horrible :S
The sad thing is that it really happens... I used video games to escape from reality when I was younger. I got bullied al lot when I was a kid.
It is also one of the reasons I started to make Let's Plays recently; To share my experiences in this 'other reality', improve my english and above all: To work on my social skills and share my opinion. I am a shy person, but since I am doing it, I am a lot less shy. (I even dared to ask a girl out, because of that bit of extra confidence)
Why can't we just look forward to one console, without starting to speculate about the upcoming successor and possible future plans? Live in today's world, not in the far unpredictable future. I think the WiiU will be an awesome console, it combines the best things of the DS with an HD home console. That sounds 'next gen' enough to me!
This game will be a lot of fun! Still need to find some friends to play it with though when it is out. Getting 4 friends over here to play a game with is already challenging enough, so 5 is going to be a problem
Same here in the Netherlands, one of the big retailers over here stopped taking preorders too... And I didn't order one yet, so it looks like I will need to wait a little longer
@Tsuchiya I did not say that their games are not amazing, but they aren't that good as so many people claim. 'overhyped' is the word I am looking for here. Next to that I do think it is important to have big name developers working for the WiiU, so that it will sell better and we have more people to play with!

How much time did it take to finish the campaign?
Re: Call of Duty Black Ops II Suffers From Reduced Frame Rate On Wii U
People still need to get used to this platform. I think the games look great! Especially for launch titles.
Re: UK Retailers: Wii U Is Sold Out
I live in the Netherlands and I do worry about my pre-order. I have pre-ordered it 3 months ago, but I am pretty sure that I wont get mine at launch
Re: Review: ZombiU (Wii U)
Still on the fence with this game. It looks promising, but I think I will wait for a sequel.

Re: Colors! 3D Receiving Update Before The New Year
I hope that they add the ability to draw straight lines and perfect circles too, since I cannot draw them on a touchscreen.

Pre-ordered it already, since PM is my favorite game serie. Looking forward to it's EU release!
Re: Watch: First US Wii U Advert Appears
Yet again, Ninty fails to show people that WiiU is a new console. I would get the impression it's all about a new controller if I wasn't into games.
Re: How Many Nintendo References Can You Spot In Alphagames?
I think W stands for Worms? (armageddon?)
Re: Movie Review: Professor Layton and the Eternal Diva
I am not a big fan of 'anime' but I will give this one a try, since it's Layton.
Re: n-Space Not Happy With Heroes Of Ruin Sales Figures
I have played the demo. The demo confirmed my expectations: It is not a game I would like to buy. Poor graphics, gameplay that's doesn't appeal to me and sound that is compressed so much that it sounds horrible :S

Re: Review: Code of Princess (3DS)
Getting it if it reaches the EU!
Re: Wii U In-Game Voice Chat Won't Use GamePad Microphone
I hope that I can finally use my WiiSpeak microphone on the WiiU. No-one uses it on the Wii, so it was a waste of my money.
Re: Captain Falcon's Twister Race Leads Final Nintendo Land Mini Game Trio
This game will be a lot of fun! Still need to find some friends to play it with though when it is out. Getting 4 friends over here to play a game with is already challenging enough, so 5 is going to be a problem
Re: Pokémon Reorchestrated: Kanto Symphony Released into the Wild
Nintendo must include orchestrated music in the next game!

Genius, but gangnam is a bit too overused.

Re: Bethesda Yet to Decide on Support for Wii U
@Hyperstar96 Well Bethesda's games aren't really that good, so I understand Zezhyrule's comment.
