Nintendo Ends Wii U Basic In Japan, Begins Producing White Wii U Deluxe

[Guest]

The Nintendo Wii U has been out for a few years now, using a deluxe and basic model to cover the market. At least in Japan, the basic model is now coming to an end, but a new deluxe model will take its place.

I have a hard time imagining how producing a console with only 8GB could have ever been a good idea, especially with a growing emphasis on downloadable content.

I am surprised the 8GB model did not get discontinued something like a year ago. Nobody I know who owns a WiiU ever considered getting the 8GB model. Most complain that even the 32GB model starts feeling awfully cramped awfully fast but they do not want the hassle of an external HDD.

8 or 32 doesn't matter in the end. If you download your games you will soon have to use an external USB hardrive either way since games go above 10GB often. In that regard the wiiU is nice because I put 1TB on it for only $50 because it is compatible with off the shelf drives.

Thanks for the article. Just want to inform all folks who live outside US that Nintendo Wii is a great media Player. If you want to access Netflix and other streaming stations on your Nintendo Wii you can use UnoTelly as I do to get around the geo block.
