It seems you can fit ALL Wii U games easily on a 500GB storage.

Misses some bigger games like Xenoblade, Hyrule Warriors, even ACIV & Watch_Dogs (say what you will of the port - they are some of the largest games on the system)

WHAT?!

Can you expand a little more that info? Amazing if true.

Well I made a quick count on the games that were on the list and landed on approximately 280 GB. As some games were missing I gathered that 10 other "big" games (~20GB each) would fit in the remaining 220 GB.

EDIT: Among the missing games
 Assassin Creed: Black Flag 13GB - Mario Maker 1.4GB - Watch Dogs 18GB - XCX ~25GB - Hyrule Warriors 8GB - Devil's Third 16.4GB - Pokken ~4GB - Mario Tennis ~1GB - Yoshi 7GB.  Together those games are less than 90GB.

EDIT 2: The upcoming games
 SF Zero 7.5GB - M&S Olympic games ~10GB - Paper Mario ~15GB - Zelda U ~25 GB - Tokyo Mirage Sessions - 12GB . Together those games are less than 80GB.

Conclusion: There will still be approximately 50GB left on a 500GB HDD!

EDIT 3: Big games not accounted for: Skylanders, Disney Infinity, Lego games, Batman Origins, Spiderman, Sniper Elite, Sonic, Scribblenauts, CoD and a few more!

This will be over 500GB with EVERY game counted!
