The image above was recently uploaded to Burger King's website. It looks as Nintendo will be partnering up with Burger King to bring some toys. They are known for providing Pokemon toys and cards to consumers. 

No word on exactly what Nintendo and Burger King have planned for their joint event, but many people think that this may have something to do with NFC that will work with the NFC located withing the Wii U Gamepad.

As expected, GameStop online is no longer accepting pre orders on the Wii U. When GameStop opens today I will call and ask if they are accepting preorders at the store. This will determine if the sell out is just online or across nationwide. Anybody in the east coast have any luck (since its later in the day over there currently.)
 
According to several media sources, apparently there may be a nationwide cap for GameStop pre orders. Nintendo apparently send a company wide set amount of Wii U's to GameStop higher ups. Once this "number" is hit GameStop management gets a call to stop pre ordering. The number at this point still remains a mystery.  80% of that number already sold yesterday, So that only left 20% for today. We can only see if anymore inventory will be left for tomorrow. Comment if you had problems pre ordering or if you already pre ordered your deluxe set.

This is certainly exciting news for fans of Pokenon Mystery Dungeon games.
 
The latest issue of Game Informer reveals that purchases that were made on the Wii can be transferred over to the Wii U. The method is yet to be revealed. Certainly, this is exciting news for everyone that has spend several dollars on large libraries of  WiiWare and Virtual Console games.
