Joystiq writes: "GameStop patrons are more interested in Wii U than they initially were of the Wii, the retailer has revealed. Over 1.2 million individuals have pre-ordered Wii U games at GameStop, in addition to the 500,000 Wii U consoles claimed since opening up pre-orders back in September."

"That figure comes out to 2.4 games per console reserved, which GameStop has told Gamasutra is roughly twice the attach rate GameStop saw prior to the Wii launch. Top pre-orders include ZombiU, Assassin's Creed 3, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, Scribblenauts Unlimited and New Super Mario Bros. U.

This is what happens when sony and microsoft extends the generation for this long, nintendo comes in and swoops

That's boring though

My Gamestop sold out of preorders in about 7hrs after the launch announcement. Hopefully I can grab one this year with Walmart layaway.

Meeeper282 You joined last month and already have more post then me?? And I been here since 03. Anyways, things are looking good for wiiu.

That's good i guess...sadly i won't be getting mine until next year, anyway this news aren't that surprising, at the time Wii's success was at doubt, now is a proven brand.

I ordered mine from Walmart and they just shipped out New Super Maro Bros. U today so my Wii U will hopefully be shipped tomorrow instead of Monday if I'm lucky.FlamesOfGrey

Walmart has shipped my copy of ZombiU as well. I am not expecting them to ship my Wii U till Monday since I didn't select the fast shipping, but maybe they will ship my black pro controller tomorrow.

I chose 3-4 day shipping and 1 day processing.

Nintendo Domination Continuation :cool:.

? Wow. If true, so much for "not enough promotion" and "Nintendo revealed info too late for hype".
