It’s been a long time since the video game faithful lined up for the midnight release of Nintendo’s Wii video game console, which arrived back in November of 2006. Now Nintendo no doubt hopes its next-generation console will enjoy the same level of anticipation as its game-changing Wii. The system will debut in North America on Nov. 18, in Europe on Nov. 30 and in Japan on Dec. 8. The price for the U.S. market will be $300 for a basic system, with 8 GB of storage; while the deluxe model that comes with infrared sensor bar and nunchuck controller will be $350.
