I thought Wii Fit U retail version was delayed to January 12 in the states

Wii U news of 11/12/2013: 

• Sonic Lost World (Wii U) received a patch today!
• Nintedo Germany says MK8 and SSB4 will be out next Spring!!!
• December ClubNintendo rewards are up, and Wii U VC games are starting to appear!
• Wii U and PC MiiVerse get an update, but that's tiny compared to 3DS's update!
• Wii Fit can help control diabetes!

Two things I want to say:

1. I'll may be posting at midnight (of course, in my country) from now on, so you can see my posts first when you open this thread and because I don't want to spam by making double or triple posts a day, so get used to this!
2. I'm starting a movement on Miiverse now that NNIDs are out on the 3DS, asking for Nintendo to make Cross buy and Cross play as fast as possible, and to have a real Unified Account. If you want to join, you just have to post your complaints on any Miiverse community, but I'd recommend the most crowded ones like the Smash Bros. or Zelda communities!

Welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying the thread, and thanks for the kind words as well! 

So, anyone know what was the date for the Poke Bank release in PAL/NA?

Sadly no, but it's something I'd like to know as well.

Shame you have to pay for it though.

Indeed, but I think that it's free for early adopters, or at least in the first months. If so, gonna bring my pokes before it becomes a paywall

1. Do we need friend codes anymore? Or is that still mandatory?
2. Just dance 2014 sold out for wii at my walmart. We have had well over a 100 copy in multi shimpents.
3. Our Deluxe finally sold out of desperation! People want a Wii U that bad they bought it and the other Mario bundle. So Wii U is sold out yet again at my walmart. Maybe not as much demand as PS4 and X1 right now, but it is more than that retailers are prepared for. Too bad. We also got more Wii mini's finally. Seems they do not care for the 129.99 wii bundle since I have not seen it in a while for sale.

3DS News: December 11, 2013

• Final Fantasy is coming to the Japanese 3DS Virtual Console.
• Bravely Default can be beaten without a single random encounter. Or microtransaction. On Easy.
• Amazon Japan has reported on their best-selling games of 2013. Seven of the top 10 are 3DS titles.
• You post screenshots on Miiverse by pressing the Home button mid-game.
• I've just answered half of the posts on Miiverse.

P.S. Is anybody interested in me holding a "Best of Zelda" vote?

Yeah, like with the Wii U. How did people not know this? There you go I guess.

Also, yeah that sounds like a great idea! Remind me when we get around to Sunday to do it though or I'll likely forget

I will be there for the MK7 Tourney, and I will not suck this time!
