Official unofficial Gen 4 hype thread: First Full-HD™ port announced

[Hiro]

I thought we just discussed that there's still remaining Basic stock and unless I'm mistaken it's even cheaper, right?
Also don't the Nintendoland and Wind Waker bundles cost the same

No. At least, Nintendo claims* it isn't. Early this year, a few retailers have already put Wii U Basic on sales for below its $300 MSRP, so it's probably not unlikely.

Actually, from what I've read, Nintendo seems being quite vague about its Wii U Basic plans. They might even be recalling the stock and converting them.

* It's probably worth noting here that, only about two weeks ago, Iwata outright said that Wii U's price isn't the problem.

Also don't the Nintendoland and Wind Waker bundles cost the same

Yes.

Which makes not offering physical media for Wind Waker less justifiable

So, just curious.

With the price drop and a choice of Wind Waker or Nintendo Land, does any Boyager plan to buy a Wii U anytime soon?

[silvertone]

I've said it several times in this thread that I do.

Actually I just now returned home from preordering one.

I was actually planning on buying one a couple weeks ago, but decided to wait a while for something like this to happen.

No external drive support at launch

I wonder how much free space is left on that nonremovable 500GB drive after all three operating systems are installed. And after several major games are bought and downloaded. And after recording some video. And whatever else Xbox One does with storage space.

i wouldn't be surprised if it's around 400-420gb

[Kalahari Inkantation]

and to think that at one point they wanted every single game downloaded to the hard drive
