Forums - Gaming - So... Why everybody complains so much about Wii U's hard drive and not the PS4 one?

First you compare 32GB to 500GB.

Then you seem oblivious to why its necessary to install all games on the HDD. Think of this, WiiU games come on DVD type discs. 

This is false. Wii U uses a proprietary blu ray format. Look up the file size for Xenoblade Chronicles for example.

I mean, you can't really compare the size of huge games on Ps4/Xbone on Blu ray disks to smaller sized games on the Wii U DVDs.

The WII U has a proprietary Blu Ray drive. Look up the filesize of Xenoblde Chronicles X.

Why would anyone complain about getting more harddrive space? They have been doing that since last gen with the PS3/XB360 so why would someone complain about it with the PS4? And what makes you think people would freak out if NIN did?

And as for your last sentence all the companies get hate and there are people who criticize all of them no matter what they do.

I think I wasn´t clear sorry. Of course it´s always better to have more space! :)

What I meant to say is that the new model is 1tb, when the first one is 500gb. When it came out I don´t remember people complaining about the new model, feeling betrayed because they had bought the original ps4. People who bought the original ps4 were even thinking about buying the new one. And it was ok! As it´s supposed to be. If there is something new you can buy it or not, noone should feel betrayed, your console is still working.

But with Nintendo it seems that everything they do is a bad move. People complained when the new 3ds came out, they complained when it had an exclusive game and now that there is only one exclusive game for it, people are complaining that the new 3ds doesn´t have more exclusives!

I don´t know, it´s like a girlfriend that tells you it´s ok you go play football with your friends but if you go, she gets mad at you because you left her alone and "You don´t think about me, Do you even love me?" but if you decide to stay with her, she gets mad at you because "Gosh, we don´t have to spend all of our time together! I need my space you know?"

That´s how I see people reacting to Nintendo all the time. Whatever they do, they f*ck up xD

Well that is different though, the NEW 3DS like totally alienated  current 3DS owners that was what the outrage was about. Why would you JUST come out with the 3DS then release the NEW 3DS and have a game/games for it that were not compatiable with the 3DS? And then after that people complained yet upgraded thinking they would get new games for the New 3DS but didn't. That was Nintendos fault for how they handled things.

With the NEW PS4 there was nothing different other than a bigger hard drive so of course there would be no uproar that's why it is differnt situation.

It's like dumping a girl right after having sex with her.

Some of us like to have a long term relationship with our games.


Im the kind of "we slept together but you are not going to find me the next morning" kind of gamer.


I'm kind of the, "I don't want to call us official, but I'll keep your number for when I get horny again" kind of gamer. It may be years before I return to a game, but I want all of my save data right there when I do, especially if I want to start a New Game+.

You don't lose your save data when you delete the installation data!
