Nintendo has been teasing us with the successor to the Wii for more than a year: It hyped the Wii U> at the E3 video games conference in 2011, and we got a hands-on look last year. By this June's E3 we were still waiting for a release date and price, but Nintendo was only releasing a smattering of details about controllers. Today, at a press conference in New York, the game company finally revealed its plans.
Nintendo will release the Wii U on November 18, making it the first of the next-gen consoles (beyond the current long-lived trio of the Wii, Xbox 360, and Sony PS3) to debut. There will be a $299 basic set and a $349 deluxe set. The deluxe comes with a 32 GB solid-state drive, compared to the 8 GB of the basic set, and kicks in a few extras including a charging stand and console stand.
In the long run-up the Wii U's release, Nintendo teased the new Gamepad controller as the coolest feature. Traditional Wiimotes will still work with the Wii U, but the Gamepad?which looks like a cross between an oversized game controller and a mobile gaming device?would allow players to start a game on their Wii U system and continue it on the Gamepad itself. Nintendo said at E3 2012 that the Wii U would support two of these Gamepads, though the bundles announced today come with only one.
