According to emerging reports, the Wii U's global launch may be delayed by as much as a month.
According to sources close to CVG, difficulties associated to the complex manufacturing process for the intricate Wii U GamePad has meant that the console is likely to ship at some point in December, and not the November date originally planned.
Whilst Nintendo are still reportedly determined to launch in the U.S. before the Thanksgiving Holiday, a synchronized global launch is now a major doubt.
Nintendo has yet to comment on the speculation.
