Wii U Price Thread

Limited to USB 2.0, Nintendo.

Ahhh Nintendo!

So a USB 3.0 or 2.0 thumb drive would work?

[speedlolita]

Yeah. Thumb drives tend to have terrible transfer rates if you're buying one cheaply though, try get something with slightly decent read/write times if you don't want an awful experience!

A 2.5" USB powered hard drive would be better really to be sure.

Thanks for the tip. I am definitely, nearly, almost certain a Wii U purchase is days away. I might try and bag one on Black Friday.

Buy whatever one you like the colour of. My black one has wind waker installed on it, that's all, and u don't have room to download watch dogs. The drive is too small whichever one you get!

[Soundwave]

Don't buy a basic. Two games and the HDD is full.

I wont be downloading games anyway physical copies only for me

I did look into the HDD issue anyway & they say to use external HDD that comes with their own PSU as the Wii U doesnt have sufficient power from the USB to power one themselves or something like that

I pre-ordered my will u.

Wii u party pack with Wii u party, Nintendo Land, wii mote plus, Super Mario 3D World and Mario kart for ?199.

Depending on Black Friday deals the above is the one I have been waiting for.

[Escape-To-88]

Where was that ?199 deal bud?

Amazon mate

[Escape-To-88]

Ah was that the bundle where they put the wrong Mario in?

[VR46]

That is a cracking deal. Nintendo first party releases hold almost all their retail value for about three years if not longer.

They put the description of the 2D mario when it should of been 3D world. They have changed the description now and it is back in stock:-

I thought that too - then I saw this:

'Box Contains

1 x Wii Party U Basic Pack
1 x New Super Mario Bros. U
1 x Mario Kart 8'

Might just pull the trigger and risk it
