Also during the even Nintendo Announced “Nintendo TVii”
which is a Media guide that is viewed and totally controlled by the Wii U Gamepad.
This guide will allow you to access what is on T.V, sport scores, movie and T.V.
information, movie trailers and much more. The experience is personalized to
the user and is deeply connected to social networks as well. For example if you
are watching a sporting event let say the Jets game and the Jets score a
touchdown. You will be able to share the a picture of the receiver making the
catch into the end zone with social networks such as Facebook and twitter
without having to use your phone or going on your computer.
I look forward to picking up mine this November...

on the second to last Sunday of November.) placing it to release in the United
States before Japan and Europe.
