Nintendo is revealing the Wii U’s price and release date during its Direct presentation tomorrow, Thursday, September 13. Nintendo announced the news on its Japanese Twitter feed, setting a time of 3AM Eastern (Midnight Pacific, 8AM Brit-time) for company president Satoru Iwata to reveal the core launch details about the console. The translated tweet reads:
Good evening, it’s Iwata from Nintendo. Tomorrow at 4pm [Japanese time]
Nintendo is streaming the presentation on its website tomorrow and Facebook page. At 10AM Eastern Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime will host a Wii U event in New York City, where we presume he’ll reveal the US price and release date. There’s a European Nintendo Direct scheduled for the same time.
