I bought a 2TB Toshiba Canvio for my Wii U. Worked fine during the three years I used it.

I had a 2TB Seagate external on my Wii U. Wish I could use that on my Switch.

2TB for Wii U games? Isnt that a bit much since most Wii U gamers were pretty small.

Depends.  There have been some good deals on the eShop lately for a few of what would typically be retail games.  So at the moment I have Mario Kart 8, Darksiders 1 and 2, Rayman Legends, and Smash Bros all as digital versions.  Just those games are around 26-27 GB right there.

And that doesn't include the all the other smaller digital games I have, or save files.  Plus the system files take up a big chunk of the Wii U internal storage.
