wow @ the 8gb of storage -_-. Not for me thats for sure.

So buy a 2 TB HDD for $50 when it launches.

Thats a waste of money when they could just put it in and charge the same ammount themselves. The more news that keeps coming out about the wiiu, the less i am intised to buy it.


You are shitting me right? USB HDD is cheap as shit these days, and Nintendo is doing us a favor by not releasing like 2-3 SKUs at once to rip people off, how can you bitch about that? What do you think I did when I got my PS3? I tossed a 500GB HDD right in there that didn't cost me an arm and a leg, that's one reason I like the PS3 better than the 360 as well. The casual won't need that space right away, and those of us who know better will have a drive just laying around already.


Its true, its really easy for me to get space. Im not saying i wont buy the wiiU because of this, i am saying though that they can easy just have 1 sku with 120gb. And charge the same ammount that they were if it has 8gb. Its like you said, its super cheap.

They want to make it even cheaper, that's how they won with the Wii in the first place right? The point is, they know the PS3 and 360 will be priced super competitively after 5-6 years of them being out already, so they need to fight the price war right at the start. They are no fools, they are targetting people who already have a 360 or PS3 as well, if it's too expensive, then it's gg Nintendo.
