Wii U launch: Our review and feature schedule

14th Nov 2012 | 15:55

Nintendo's next-gen console, Wii U officially goes on sale in North America this Sunday, November 18, ahead of the European release on November 30.

By now you're probably wondering when our Wii U coverage is set to kick off - and we've got answers for you. Today we've started an extensive campaign dissecting the launch of Nintendo's new console with Revolution: The Story of Wii.

In the mammoth three-page feature Rob Crossley speaks to Nintendo insiders and reveals how Sony and Microsoft came within a handshake of capturing the core technology behind the Wii Remote.

First-party Wii U game reviews are set to go live on the site at the end of this week, while our coverage on the console itself - and the European launch - will extend into next week. For a full run down of CVG's Wii U coverage, see the list below.
