I know it's last minute and that 8GB is clearly inferior, but I don't get all the complaining. Unlike the PS4 and X1, WiiU games typically don't require enormous patches or installs to play games. 8GB should be plenty serviceable for a lot of people.

Clearly there's 8GB white model stock to clear. They have every reason to put this at a much more affordable price point -- which means Ninty will have some idea the kind of demand they could get with a lower priced 32GB model.

I think these will likely have a solid sell-through by end of December as some Christmas gift giving will likely be pushed into the weekend since the holiday is on a Thursday...

Overall good move. Nintendo has to do everything they can to capture as much momentum as they can now so they can have an even better 2015.

uh, that's simply not true lol, things get patched a lot on it, the answer is invest in an external storage option for it cause even 32GB is too small, I run a 2TB HDD on a docking station lol.

Things do get patched, but often they're only a few MB whereas many PS4 and X1 games end up having patches and installs required that measure several GB.


depends, some of them can be bigger, it all depends on how much the dev fails at release and tries to make up for it. Nintendo games are usually not too bad though, don't forget those DLCs.
