Games that I possibly want (and don't have, obviously) are Pikmin 3 and Mario U. What do I do now? =S

Nintendo : buy Mario Kart 8 on the eShop or retail, get a free game
- Thread starter L~A
- Start date
Since I Already have all of them (US free games) I guess I will host a Mario Kart Tournament and give away a free game.
I would say download Pikmin 3 and if you want enter my tournament for a chance to win the other one

Have all the games already. Guess I should trade the code or sell it.

Well that's all the convincing I need. Pikmin it is!
But I'm probably pretty poo at Mario Kart so my chances of winning the other one are pretty slim lol.
I have a basic Wii U.
The only games I don't own on that list is W101, Wii Party U, and Mario and Sonic. Might end up going with Wii Party U (and buy W101 retail).
What is the cheapest good hard drive for the Wii U? I only really need 100 gigs at most.
100 gigs go from $34 - &44, I would recommend 500 gigs they're around $50
Any recommended models in that price range? I remember them being like 80-100 dollars minimum around the Wii U launch.
I have 8 GB left on my WiiU, guess I will have to look for an external HDD soon.
I have a WD 500GB I paid about $55 for it at Best Buy last year so you should be able to find those or Seagate they're around the same price

Why does it say you "could" claim?! I really want to get Zelda with it. Can't wait.

Never played pikmin, but I highly suggest wwhd
Wow, that is really a hard decision. Get both. Totally worth it
Pikmin 3 is such an awesome game I had never played a Pikmin game before picking this one up and it's one of my favorites on the console, plus bingo battle to play some multi player
Honestly if you never played the original WW then just get WWHD. Pikmin 3 is a brilliant game but Wind Waker (HD) is a masterpiece.

So mainland Europe, will the code from a UK copy work?
So I checked out some different stores and I found a cheap $60 Seagate one. It seems to be the best cheap one (any lower and it's no name brands). Problem is, it only has a USB 3.0 cable that isn't a y cable. Should it be fine to just pick up a separate USB 2.0 y cable and then use it for the Wii U? Or does Seagate have a weird proprietary port on the actual hard drives or something?

Awesome deal! I'm gonna go with either Game&Wario or Mario and Sonic 2014.

I have to choose between:
Or I might just get Pikmin 3 again, because it's that good.
- New Super Mario Bros. U
- Wind Waker HD

Damn, does this seem a little desperate to anyone else?

This combined with the bundle is a really good offering if you've been wanting one. It'll be interesting to see what this does for sales in NA. They need to market it though.

I could get New U or Pikmin.
hmm I'll gave to think about it

Why is that a bad thing? The system is selling horribly and they should be making this kind of effort to help the install base grow.

Sure, it's just surprising to see Nintendo give away some of the few big games on the system. These are titles that would be evergreen in the past, selling well at full price years into the system's run. Just another sign of how poorly the system is doing, I guess.
Game & Wario, Sonic Lost World, Olympic Game, Wii Party U and MonHun3 are the games I don't have.
Leaning towards G&W since I am a fan of the Wario Ware games though I am aware this game isn't quite the same. Only problem is I don't really play local multiplayer at all.

The 3ds is doing pretty well and Nintendo did a promotion for $30 eshop credit when you bought Fire Emblem and SMT, both very popular games. So I don't think your argument holds any water
NA will get those 4 games. It won't change. Probably NoE and NoA both got to decide what games to have available. Has to do with sales data I'm thinking.
Don't buy G&W if you are not going to play multiplayer. I don't own the game but this game is not like wario ware so there are not a lot of micro games but it is kinda like nintendoland in that aspect bigger mini games that you play with friends Just like wii party u which is getting way to much hate in this thread game is awesome with casual friends or familie. If you want the most out time out of your game pick monhun. If you love sanic go for sonic but dont go for mp catered games if you cant play local.

Probably cause WiiU is doing worse in Europe than the US so now effort is needed there, though I don't understand why they just f don't do the full promotion across the board
You're lucky that WWHD can be the first time you experience it.
Wait how come games like MK8 are only ~5gb? That doesn't sound right. I thought they'd be bigger.
3D World is really small too compared to Wonderful 101...

Best game on the console.
...well shit. If you have a wii remote and nunchuk, then it makes Pikmin a stronger proposition since the dual-analog controls aren't great IMO. If not, then go with Wind Waker.... and then get Pikmin later.

I dont care for mario, pikmin or zelda =/ pls give me MH 
101 has voice acting. And seems pretty lengthy, though don't own it.
None of the sizes surprise me, to be honest.
EDIT:
Mario and Sonic 2014 surprises me.
