8Gb of storage is pretty crappy. I can't imagine many people will want to shove in an external HDD just to download a few demos and purchase the odd game from the online store. Why didn't they have a low-end non-proprietary laptop HDD? For most people it'd be enough space and if people (like a number of us forum goers) wanted more, they could have the option of either external or a new internal.

It could potentially put off third-parties from releasing DLC or digital download games for WiiU unless Nintendo can demonstrate a significant number of users have extra storage and are purchasing digitally.
