Buy This and Buy A HDD with the $ u saved you will need a HDD And its nicer than the black one
5 Stars
Buy This and Buy A HDD with the $ u saved you will need a HDD And its nicer than the black one
Excellent gaming system fun for the kids and us adults between the age of 4 to 50 you can buy all the major hit titles from all Nintendo systems from $4.99 to $9.99 for NES systems to N64 games the price goes higher for the newer stuff. This is your best value this one is 8gb the black system is 32gb either way you will need a external HDD if you buy digital you will fill the 32gb up with just 3 of the Wii U games so you are better off buying the 8gb system and using the money you saved to buy and external HDD and still have $20 left over. Also the white ones look nicer to me they don't show smudges and fingerprints like the black one plus if you collect Nintendo stuff the white one will be more sought after due to them being far more rare than the black ones. It's a Nintendo system in FULL 1080p High Definition OF COURSE IT'S AMAZINGLY FUN and very addictive haha. Review completed by a 34 year old male.
