Storage is expandable via SD card and USB HDD. The recent hardware leak is accurate and I trust the sources completely.

Great, so if it supports at least SDHC, there's 64GB of memory, should be more than enough for most smaller DD games. If it supports SDXC, then game on.

3DS supports SDXC 128GB formatted to FAT32, but doesn't 'officially' support it for some reason. I figure the Wii U will be similar.
 
Yeah, thats what I was basing my assumptions on.

I do wonder though if SD is going to be fast enough for loading games like Trine 2 etc off of. Maybe that's not a good idea.

I just want a matte or non-black console with lots of storage.

Might get the white one and a usb SSD when they come down in price.

Awesome price for 3 movies. Will buy.
Holy shit at smirking Romney.
What's he done now?
DM, you want cheese or you don't want cheese. Don't come to me with "I don't want that much cheese".
Gah. Barbarian.
 
Dips and cheese are not crumb-intensive activities! There is no risk of crumbing!

They can even crumble when trying to pick up some soft cheeses. Try using Ritz to eat the king of savoury combos: cabanossi and cheese on top, see what happens; the crumbliest crumbs that ever crumbled.

The statement was actually released before the attackers breached the compound. The diplomats were trying to save their fucken lives.

And Romney, who gets to sleep in his bed at night, jumped in on it to score points off Obama, on the grounds of Murken principles. On the ludicrously spurious grounds, additionally, that Obama should be held personally accountable for the language and philosophy of diplomatic statements released by satellite members of his administration under life-and-death duress.

And he smirked repeatedly while doing it. While trying to turn a tragedy into an "OBAMA SYMPATHISES WITH TERRORISTS" cheap shot.

I'd really like to see that pampered bitch pontificate about appeasement when somebody is aiming a gun at him.

So the Wii U has a 8GB of storage, the same as my original Xbox and a quarter of my phone’s memory. Good job, Nintendo.

Last time around the Wii was $249 USD and $399 AUD. When the prices were announced the AUD was worth 76c USD.

We gonna get gouged, despite high USD
 
i am very surprised Nintendo has decided to follow MS path of multiple sku's

one of their biggest assets to the casual market was it was so easy to just pick up a nintendo thing and know what you are getting

they already have problems with confusion in the marketplace with the name, adding SKU's just adds this and also people who are traditional nintendo casuals buying hard disks etc?

wtf. It just does not fit into the Nintendo ecology and thinking. The may want to change but its going to be a tough, painful one for them potentially.
 
I think (and this opinion is very tenuous at present) they may be trying to more pointedly separate out hardcore and casual markets. Given the focus on Nintendo Premium...

Exactly, in which case it makes sense they would have something to focus specifically on the market they admitted they didnt get last time around.

True, but ti doesn't help confusion out at all. They have created a problem they never had.
 
What sorta idiot would be confused by multiple skus?

Lots of people. No one wants to make the "wrong" choice and so are more careful in their purchase. It can reduce the chance of impulse buying as well.

You don't do multiple skus unless you have a very good reason for doing so.

Fucking clown. What the fuck is wrong with him, he can't even keep a fucking smirk off his face?

You guys!! I get to keep my job!!

Excellent!
 
And with 25gb discs that 32gb is going to be nothing and I can't see that Nintendo should expect 'premium' gamers to already have SSDs on hand. It's terrible business to simply assume your audience will help you out of your own problems. Are we missing something?


You guys!! I get to keep my job!!

Excellente~!
 
I suspect there will be an 'official' badged HDD accessory. 32GB is really going to be good for stuff like XBLA equivalent sized games, and all the virtual console/wiiware stuff.

If you want to download full retail games, get your own external drive.

But I cant see there being any financial incentive to download a full game, given how much of a ripoff they are everywhere else. PSN is still selling battlefield 3 for $100, for example.
 
In japan at least, Nintendo are giving you 10% back for every DL to spend on the next game. Thats their attack on preowned


Hey QLD Government, BHP will see you in court
