Nintendo rented out a few floors in a building in Manhattan's trendy Chelsea district today to hold a massive press event where they announced the release information for the upcoming Wii U console, as well as presented demos of a bunch of the launch window titles. To make a long story short, the Wii U will be hitting stores well in time for the holiday shopping season on November 18. As far as pricing, you've got the Basic Set for $299.99, and the Deluxe Set for $349.99 To make a long story long? Make the jump! Source
