That article is an older one. I thought that the newer updates used more?
Personally, I'd rather not spend money to add onto my consoles. It's kind of the reason I don't really do PC gaming. Whenever I get a Wii U, it may be this unit or not, I don't plan on adding an external hard drive to it. I'd just assume buy physical disks and only download the really small older games (that I'm getting free through club nintendo).That article, while do explain it, sounds stupid when it whine about external hdd needing a Y cable not being included.

That's pretty much me as well. Unless I see the Nintendo digital ecosystem become something interesting I doubt I'll ever make a single purchase in the store. I've pretty much abandoned XBLA live off of free PS+ games at this point.That article is an older one. I thought that the newer updates used more?

Yes and yes.So, can I pre-order this in-store and then pick it up in store? Just curious, I've never preordered consoles before, let alone a bundle like this.
Then won't wii U work perfectly for you then... you now got to add it as a plus among your many reasons why wii u fail..., no unnecessary harddrive space/cost that you are just going to waste since you only have physical games or small downloads... ;/That article is an older one.

If it had full sized games at really good prices then I would consider buying them...if it had more space but I have no desire to add more space. For example, the PS3 and Xbox 360 have had some really good sale prices on full sized games. Some as low as $1 - $3. In the case of the Wii U, I'd have storage anxiety (similar to "range anxiety" which is experienced by people that own all electric cars).Then won't wii U work perfectly for you then... you now got to add it as a plus among your many reasons why wii u fail..., no unnecessary harddrive space/cost that you are just going to waste since you only have physical games or small downloads... ;/
Sooo... turns out it's a digital download? What is it going to be 5GB? 10GB?$299? Not too bad. With the game, that's a defacto $100 price cut on the deluxe. I might deal at this price point.
Where's all the people telling me a week or two ago that there wouldn't even be a black friday/holiday bundle for $299?
Now the decision, to pick this bundle which may or may not sell through depending on how limited it is. Or wait and see if Black Friday brings us something even better (i.e. a $249 bundle of some sort)
is the wii U wind waker bundle system exclusive only in Gamestop?You guys on the fence about getting the Wii U Zelda bundle need to do it now because that thing probably won't last after pre orders. It was even rare to try and find the skyward sword controller bundle the day of release. Trust me, pre order now and don't wait until Black Friday, there won't be any left.
Yes, ONLY Ripping Gamestop Exclusive. Kinda suck The Figurine bundle make me want to pre-orderis the wii U wind waker bundle system exclusive only in Gamestop?
Didn't they say its going to be Target and other retailers also and whatever site that broke the news changed it?Yes, ONLY Ripping Gamestop Exclusive. Kinda suck The Figurine bundle make me want to pre-order
Maybe next year, but it won't have any zelda design.LE Console is pretty cool with Pre-installed game is terrible deal ever. I waits for black friday deals.. possible Wii u 32 GIGS Bundles for $199.99 with 2 free games
Yes sir, use code saver for free shipping.Any Gamestop.com codes for discounts and/or free shipping to use on this?
possibly in 2015LE Console is pretty cool with Pre-installed game is terrible deal ever.   I waits for black friday deals.. possible Wii u 32 GIGS Bundles for $199.99 with 2 free games
What is the console bundle SKU? The GS I just left couldn't find it. I did order (2) WWHD with statue thoughI went in to GS to pre-order WWHD w/ Ganon statue. Ended up pre-ordering two of them and the console bundle. WTF.
The Zelda WiiU console bundle is NOT limited to Gamestop, only the Wind Waker game with Ganondorf statue is limited to Gamestop. You can expect Target and Best Buy to carry the bundle. Why would Nintendo limit that to Gamestop when it's supposed to kick off the price drop of the system?

I might end up doing this as well if pokemon edition 3ds get announced, thenI went in to GS to pre-order WWHD w/ Ganon statue. Ended up pre-ordering two of them and the console bundle. WTF.
'I tried going to reserve it today and they told me it's not in the system.. anyone else get it to work?I will need to stop in GameStop after work today and get my reserve switched to the Ganondorf version. Hopefully it is in the system by then.
the zelda 3ds bundles were easy to get for 1 month after relese but they stopped making them an theyre worth $500+ nowSpeculation you say??? You've come to the right place! *snaps suspenders*
I predict a flood of these consoles. It's cheaper to not produce a physical game and since they're taking a loss on the console they're going to prefer you buy this to the Nintendoland bundles. Plus it's Zelda and this seems like something of a Hail Mary pass to sell a ton of consoles because so far they've sold almost nothing.
So yeah I predict that this will be limited to the number they can sell.
I also predict Deader comes and tells me I'm wrong!

Good call. I just signed up and got approved for a credit card. Woooooo! So you automatically don't have any payments for 6 months the as long as it's over $250?Cool, thanks Mack. No payments or interest for 6 months with Newegg Preferred Account. That is of course if I play my cards right.

So as long as I pre-order by the end of the month. And pay them for $300 + tax within 6 months, I don't get charged any interest?
Given Newegg's history of cancelling pre-orders... I'd be a bit iffy with ordering from them.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16868100140 Looks like NewEgg is getting it
I'm in the same boat.The only tough thing is convincing the wife I need an XBOX One or PS4 in a few months... but I will cross that bridge later.
It was in there, it just wasn't set up completely. SKU is 240234.'I tried going to reserve it today and they told me it's not in the system.. anyone else get it to work?
