Report: Wii U Deluxe GameStop pre-orders sold out

Pre-orders for the Wii U Deluxe edition have apparently reached their allotted numbers across all US Gamestop stores.

A report out of Polygon claims that reservations for the currently definitive Wii U package have been filled ‘company wide’ in America. The basic bundle is likely to follow suit sometime soon as well.

Stores from a variety of states confirmed the news to the outlet, with a few adding they hit 50 per cent of their respective allotments within hours of the release date announcement.

The sources also explained they were unsure if more Deluxe editions would be available either prior to or after the console’s launch in November.

Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter stated last week that he expected Nintendo would initially manufacture no more than 1m units per month to start, so expect 1m U.S., 1m Europe, 1m UK.”
