Spotted one of these in your local store?

UK-based chain opens up the order book

Despite the absence of a 100% solid release date, UK entertainment retailer HMV has started advertising preorders for both the black and white Wii U system in its stores.

Spotted by an eagle-eyed consumer and reported by GoNintendo, the promotion appears to be live in many stores up and down the United Kingdom. A deposit of just £10 is required to secure your order, although when you'll be getting it is another matter entirely — HMV can only vaguely state 2012 as the launch window.

Have any of our UK readers taken HMV up on this offer? Let us know in the comments section!

I want the black one.

I'm getting excited for the WiiU for some reason... mostly based on potential. And a 2D HD Mario doesn't hurt either.

Ooo I want the black one. Now I won't have to worry about confusing my wii with the wii u

Tag:I'm not bias towards Nintendo. You just think that way (Admin note - it's "biased". Not "bias")
(killeryoshis note - Who put that there ?)
Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true. 2nd UPDATE: I have no Switch 2. I am now behind
