I'm a bit confused as to which SKU I should pick up...

White Basic Bundle 300$ + Nintendo Land (likely 40$) = 340$

Black Deluxe Bundle = 350$

On one hand, black is sexy, includes Nintendo Land, and the 10% deluxe digital promotion.

On the other hand, the gamepad stand, gamepad cradle, and console stand don't interest me much, and I don't think I need 32 GB of storage, as all of my Wii downloads (WiiWare, Virtual Console, and DC) are less than 1 GB. Unless of course "Wii U Ware" games, VC NGC games, and DC are large in size, then that 8 GB won't be enough. Then there is the possibility that I want to purchase retail games digitally for which even that 32 GB won't be enough anyway (maybe only for a few games) and I'll have to use a USB HDD.

Also, here are both Wii U SKUs on Nintendo's official website...
