Nintendo's Wii U gets UK launch

Nintendo has launched its new console Wii U in the UK.

Industry experts see the release as a last chance for Nintendo to stay at the forefront of gaming, after it posted its first-ever loss last year.

The traditional games industry is having to fight hard to hold market share with hundreds of cheap apps for phones and tablets flooding the market.
