Wait. I thought the Wii U was supposed to be priced well.

Now The top model which comes with only 32 gb HDD. ( WTF? 32 gb )

Is 309.99 GBP. No games.

An extra controller is 109.99 GBP

And a game is 49.99 GBP. 

Now for me to buy a Wii U which I was considering at Crimbo with 2 controllers and 1 game is 469.97GBP ( About $752 US ).

WTF?????

I would have at least expected 1TB HDD and a bundle for around 350 GBP. Not Approaching PS3 launch price in my country with a controller and game. I could get a PS3 on launch day with an extra controller and game for 499 GBP in 2006. 

This is putting me right off. To have 4 Wii U controllers it will cost me 329.97 GBP on top of the original Console price.

 

DISGUSTING.

The Wii U is going to support a maximum of 2 touch screen controllers, not 4.  You probably should do more research on a system you would think of buying.

Also, I would say that reliability is a big factor why Nintendo is going with flash memory instead of a hard drive internally.
