i have a 16gb (or possibly 32gb) flash stick and that is more than enough...120gb ssd seems excessive to be honest

Depends on how much digital content you have tbh, I have quite a bit - around 80GB worth so far. I wouldn't recommend a USB memory stick, they're also not advised by Nintendo. Not sure of the technical reason.

Digital games from the eshop, they average 5GB a game. Some are huge, e.g. Xenoblade X (23GB) and Lego City (22GB). Also, some updates for disk based games are huge too - Smash Bros for instance requires a 3GB patch.

Love my WiiU, but I got the Mario Kart 32GB one for £180 on release of the game. Can't believe this is still £200.

Aye, I did too. Nintendo stuff seems to hold there price for some reason. Might be worth buying one of these and putting it in the loft for a future cash in.

Im after a wiiu but that game is pretty pointless and specially for a 6 year old.
Is it really worth getting a wiiu over an xbox one? Seems games are more expensive too...

I like my wii but i would say if you're only buying one console get a xb1 or ps4, even for a 6 year old. There are so many games for all ages on those platforms. You will get 5+ years out of those, i doubt any wii u games will be released in 2 years.

I'd have to disagree, our 6yo is glued to it, and he adores making new levels and playing other peoples content. He's successfully re-created some excellent levels, and shown how very creative he can be in his own right.
I think you'll be surprised just how awesome Mario Maker is for young 'uns. :smiley:

Yes, we sold our x-box one as most of the games are aimed at adults. Not much choice for kids. My 2 love the wii u, such a great, fun, family console

Supposedly usb sticks arent meant to be continuously read and written from and will eventually burn out. That said i dont play on my wii u that much so i bought a usb stick for like £15 (cant remember if it was 64gb or 128gb) and have the xenoblade installs running on that without issue.

For me it always has been the case, I would never own any Nintendo console as a 'sole' console, but enjoy what little exclusives are out for them.

You could sell the Amiibo for £10+ on eBay too.
