Wii U Thanksgiving Launch?

Wii U Launching on Black Friday

A release time around Thanksgiving would be no big surprise for a new Nintendo system. The company has always liked that time of year as a launch/relaunch window. The interesting idea hear is that the full launch would be on “Black Friday” the ridiculous post-holiday-shopping-holiday, where maniacs trample each other to get the best deals. A week to two weeks prior seems more likely, however Black Friday, though seemingly bold, wouldn’t be much of a change.
