So pre-orders of the Wii U have been selling like hot cakes. GameStop is one of the many retailers who had to stop taking pre-orders because of the demand, but now they’re starting up a wait list for PowerUp Reward members. When you join the wait list you will be notified when a Wii U is available for purchase, then you’ll have 48 hours to respond and get the system. GameStop president Tony Bartel said:
“Demand for Wii U has been off the charts and we know many of our PowerUp Rewards members are anxious to get their hands on one. We’re happy to offer our customers this exclusive opportunity to join the wait list for this must-have item.”
I’ve really been pretty surprised to see the hype for the Wii U. I mean if the pre-orders are showing us anything, it’s showing us the system is going to sell extremely well at launch. Goes to show Nintendoes what Sony and Microsoft don’t.
