Nintendo has confirmed that Wii Karaoke U will launch on the Wii U later this week.

Tickets are available in different time periods, so an hours play will cost £1.79 GBP, 24 hours will cost £4.49 GBP and a 30 day ticket costs £13.49 GBP.

There'll also be a variety of modes and customisation options for players to have fun with.

Wii Karaoke U also comes with one hours play for free, so you can try it out all the features without spending any money.
