Same here. I'll have a tab open to Amazon during and after the conference and I'll be working that refresh button.
My predictions:
Launch date: 11/11/12 (two days before Black Ops 2, which will also be officially announced for WiiU).
Launch price: This one's a bit tricky. We've seen Nintendoland advertised as a separate game in the Gamestop promos, Amazon Germany, and EB Games Australia, so the evidence points to a separate release. Maybe $249 for just the console? We'll see.
Either way, whether Nintendoland is bundled or not, the WiiU console won't retail for more than $299.
