People shouldn't have to buy extras such as external hardrives to take advantage of the product they spent hundreds on. But if it's no problem for the OP then more power to him

Yeah just like PS3 did it well when it was "new" (20, 40, 60, 80 and forced installs). And the PSV is even better with its memory.

This is like saying "I will never buy an iPhone because I don't want Apple to watch me -- I will get an Android instead!!" lol

Lol, answer that one Max.....

I will: 

Are you really comparing the hard drives of 6,7 years ago to the hard drives of today? I think I had a 100GB hard drive in my PC back then. I now have several 2TB ones.

And forced installs weren't the norm either, but if they were most of them were small. There was the occasional 4-5GB one but if your hard drive filled up with installs you could always delete the ones you've stopped playing and install them back when you want to play again. 

Nobody mentioned PSV, not sure what it has to do with this. I personally think their method of charging for memory cards seperately is bad.

The funny thing is by these peoples reactions you would think I said not to buy a Wii U because it sucks or something (or I killed their children). But all I said is Wii U doesn't have the space for a DD only system. The easy solution is to simply by physical copies lol. Which is what I would have suggested but the OP already said he is aware and bought an external HD for extra storage. And I've already said that is an acceptable answer for him but you shouldn't expect other to. These people are ridiculously over sensitive. By them pbringing up anything other the Wii U they are going off topic and are really just stretching
