GameStop will give you $$$ for your trade in when you pre-order Wii U

Say what you will about GameStop, but the company sure doesn’t waste any time, and the Wii U launch is a perfect example because they already have their Wii U product listings and trade-in promotions online.

The trade in promotions were just announced and are only good for about one week. If you hesitate and don’t trade in one of your old systems before September 23, 2012, you’ll get a lot less in-store credit towards your Wii U pre-order. Below is the list of what GameStop will give you for your various consoles and handhelds if you trade them in right now and and put it towards a Wii U ($300-350) pre-order.

3DS – $90
PS3 – $115
PS3 Slim – $140
Vita – $90
Wii – $50
Xbox 360 – $90
Xbox 360 Slim – $115

If you’re a PowerUp Rewards member, you will get an extra $10 credit for each system. It may not sound like much, but every little bit helps when you are in a ‘must have’ craze for the Wii U. So, hurry up and get all of your old consoles to a GameStop near you.
