Gaming accessory maker PDP might have accidentally leaked the Nintendo Wii U’s launch date during the 2012 GameStop Managers Conference in Texas today. A PDP rep announced that during the conference that its lineup of peripherals would be available shortly after the console’s November 18 release date.

Officially, the Wii U’s launch date hasn’t been disclosed, and many believe that Nintendo would announce the date during an invite-only press even being held on September 13 in New York City.

While this still remains a rumor, previous Nintendo consoles were released in November, specifically on Sundays, right before the start of the holiday shopping season.
