Wii U to be at CES, but will be only shown to the press

Posted By | On 20th, Dec. 2011

Nintendo normally avoids CES, the massive consumer electronics show. Microsoft and Sony will be at the CES which starts in January, and Sony has confirmed that they will be showing the PS Vita.

Nintendo has confirmed to be at the CES as well, but they will be showing off the Wii U behind closed doors.

It will be under NDA in most cases, so don’t expect information to be released to the public.

“Nintendo of America, working with the 2012 International CES management, will offer demos of the upcoming Wii U console to members of the media who did not see the system at the 2011 E3 Expo,” the company said to 1UP.

“However, Nintendo will not have a booth at CES, nor does it plan to include any games, experiences or information beyond what was available at the 2011 E3 Expo.

“Production and development efforts remain on track for the Wii U launch, which will take place between the start of the 2012 E3 Expo in June, and the end of 2012.”
