The earlier rumours of the Wii U release date being leaked by PDP during the recent GameStop conference, have now been denied.
PDP’s senior vice president of sales and marketing, William Otte has now told Kotaku [via CVG] that the November 18 release date “was all a misunderstanding.”
PDP community manager Candace Hinton added:
“At this time we can’t confirm Nintendo’s dates and we don’t know exactly what was heard, but we simply do not know that this point.
“We have nothing to announce at this time.”
This could very well been a retentive PR exercise for dropping the untimely news, but as before, we cannot take anything as confirmed. Nintendo has not officially announced the Wii U release date.
