I know not everyone does but you should buy an external with it's own power cord rather than get one that is USB powered (if you can find one that also has a fan that is a big bonus).  Also I'll back up osed125.  I have tons of digital games and they seem to download straight to the harddrive (as indicated by the HDD access lights)

Cool! Also I tried testing if I could move files to my 1 GB USB from my system memory but it isn't possible from selecting the USB device. Will I be able to do this with an external hard drive that has a bigger size?

Also will I be able to run a future smash bro dlc that is on my external hard drive when the smash bros game file is in my Wii U's system memory?

Did you format the 1GB stick (as with any format all current files on the stick will be lost)? If you have any Virtual Console titles any one of them would be small enough to fit on the stick.

 

As to your last question I am not sure.  When you say game file are you talking about the game save data file?  I may play on mine a little tonight and see if any of my titles are split (i.e. game on HDD save file on system memory).
