Gamestop has stopped taking pre-orders for the $350 "deluxe" version of Nintendo's upcoming console, the Wii U. According to Polygon, employees at Gamestop stores across the U.S. have confirmed that consumers have reserved every unit the retailer has reserved for the console launch on November 18th. If you were wondering whether or not people would be interested in buying the Wii U, you just got your answer.

We've seen Microsoft's showing, we've seen Sony's. Now, Nintendo shows off their goods, and unfortunately, it was highly predictable. The big surprise was a game we all knew was coming, and following that were a few montages of third party games, which rang all too reminiscent of past E3 Wii showings, and three Mario games. Ubisoft showed off a new zombie title, and Nintendo ended with what they're hoping will be the Wii U's Wii Sports, NintendoLand, a (who would've guessed it?!) collection of minigames.
