Wii u HDD

Even though these are not on the Nintendo list of HDD recommendation, but i will assume the Western Digital Elements Desktop 2.0TB is ok to use.

Crazy low price of £160 for a Wii U is pretty tempting.

What you going use the HDD with the wii U for ? :confused:

Downloading games, prefer digital.

I didn't know you can store the digital games on a HDD..I thought they only worked off the 32GB built in memory..

Yep, you can install games directly to an external hard drive.

OP - as long as that drive has an external power supply it should work with the Wii U.
