Don't you think there's a difference between the MS and Sony situations in which you can install 10 or more games until you have to manage things versus he WiiU situation where you have 4 gigs once you factor in that initial update?

Seems like false equivalence to me.

No really, Wii U doesn't need obligatory installation. Yet, Wii U final price with the external hard drive is way bellow the PS4 with 1 one game and the online subscription. People said the $399 was the nail in the coffin, yet it is not the real cost of the console. 

The sticker price is really what matters for sales though, I think you'd have a difficult time proving that extraneous costs are taken into account for most people's purchases.  This means that the HDD doesn't really affect the WiiU price because most people don't think about it, and the same with paid online for MS and Sony.  

But I still think that the WiiU HDD situation is no where near equivalent with the PS4 or 360.  It's just a ridiculous claim.
