The Wii U is an upcoming video game console from Nintendo as the successor to the Wii.The system was unveiled during Nintendo's press conference at the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2011 on June 7, 2011, and is scheduled for released on November 18, 2012 in North America, November 30, 2012 in Europe and Australia, and December 8, 2012 in Japan. It will be the first entry in the eighth generation of video game consoles.Nintendo stated that the Wii U supports 1080p graphics and has 2 GB of memory; 1 GB as system memory and the same for game memory. This is more than 20 times the memory of the Wii. The console will be released in two versions; a basic white version with 8 GB of internal storage, and a premium black version with 32 GB of internal storage, which includes stand and docks. An HDMI cable will be included with both versions. The Wii U features a new controller, called the Wii U GamePad, with an embedded touchscreen. The controller allows a player to continue playing games by displaying the game even when the television is off. At the E3 2012 expo, a second controller, called the Pro Controller, was unveiled, which is a more traditional gamepad. It features two analog sticks.The system will be backward compatible with Wii, and Wii U games can support compatibility with Wii peripherals, such as the Wii Remote Plus and the Nunchuk. It will not be backward compatible with Nintendo GameCube discs or peripherals, although games will become available for purchase and downloaded from Nintendo's Virtual Console service.

The original Wii specifications were quite modest compared to the Xbox 360 and PS3, and this time around they appear to be, er, quite modest compared to the Xbox 360 and PS3.As we noted in our hands-on Nintendo Wii U review, "Nintendo is being very cagey on the subject and prefers to promote the new experiences the Wii U can offer rather than talk about CPUs and graphics chips."In other words, the specs aren't anything to get too excited about. Prices in the US for the Wii U are set at $249.99 for the 8GB model and $349.99 for the 32GB version.However, Nintendo won't comment on the UK price because, it says, retailers are required by law to set their own prices - something that hasn't been a problem for any other tech firm on the face of the Earth.
