Only the memory is different and the gap is only 24 gb, you can buy a shedload of cheaper memory either in SD card or external usb hard drive and just buy Nintendoland separately if you wanted. I would buy the basic if they had it black but I just want the black colour because otherwise the console looks too similar to the original wii.
Has it been confirmed that you can install and run games on an external drive?

EShops games, yeah. Full games i.e digital versions of retail releases? No idea. I buy discs anyway, I like physical copies of games and boxes.
Theoretically you should be able to run full games off an external HDD as USB 2.0 data transfer speeds are comparable if not better than some disc drives.
You guys actually want Nintendo Land? I plan on playing it for a week then selling it to basic model owners. You americans get 10% off digital for a year, in europe we get 10% off digital for 3 months. 
Yeah I wouldn't mind Nintendo Land as it looks pretty fun. I'm not sure if I'd get it on it's own for $40 or $50 but thrown in as a pack-in with everything else makes it a nice bonus. Even if I only played it for a week that'd be good enough for me. With so many great games to play these days I don't feel too compelled to have to spend a certain length of time with every game I play.gamingeek said:You guys actually want Nintendo Land?

I will play it. Some games look fun and others look like they need to be played to get it. If nothing else it looks like something.I can play with the family.
I wish Ass Creed 3 was at launch. I'm basically left with mario u, rayman and zombi u and I think zombi u will kick my ass and mario u will be cool but not the sort of thing which uses the console features greatly.

I think those are the games we are all left with.
Here is a current rumor about Retro Studios
- Retro Studios is working on game engines for Wii U
- they're also helping other developers implement them
- includes both internal and external projects
- Retro showed off their work to Epic and has them considering UE4 support
SUPER MARIO MAKER LEVELS:
- SMB Mix-Up! (1AB2-0000-0047-5A7D)
- Storm the Castle (77BD-0000-00E0-A9C0)
Retro have been rumoured to be working with Epic in some form for ages now. There have been rumours of unreal engine 3 metroid and zelda made by retro.
This is my Wii U launch lineup:
The amazing thing? The best launch lineup ever, and I'm not even getting a Nintendo published game.
I don't see how anyone could complain about the launch.
