Nintendoland is cruising for about $78

i think most big titles are about $78, i'm hoping that assassin's creed will be $69 for the wii u since it's that price for the ps3 and xbox 360 version.

[-JJ-]

My decision was only based on the color of the Wii U. I like nintendo's modern futuristic theme so I went with the white lol

[Caius Casshern Sins]

I choose Black because I was interested in NintendoLand, I like the accessories and I know I will use them and I want to Use Nintendo Premium to get some cash back on some games. I do plan to download games and more. Black is also nice with some extra gb of memory.

[thehappening]

yes i do want a delux as im in the UK and il be getting zombi U and a black pro pad with it LET THE ENVY COMENCE

[GreatestGamer]

To be honest, I actually only got the black version of the Wii U because I did not wanna be the odd ball.

I was in a Gamestop store with around 10 people pre ordering the Wii U and everyone, was getting the Deluxe Wii U as well as Gamestop employees were telling people the Deluxe was a better value.

So when he asked me what color I wanted..everybody looked at me...and I was like Oops...I want the Deluxe also.

But I really wanted the white console, just because it looks cool to me.

I wasn't really excited about Nintendo Land mainly because I don't have friends over that often (mostly play online) but when you add this and the extra space and the other stuff, it is hard to not go for the deluxe model. Plus I wanted a black console. The more I see of Nintendo Land, the more I want to try it though. I have a daughter who is 4, I will probably spend most of my time playing it with her.

Eitherway, even if you don't want Nintendo Land you can always just sell the game (I think I read somewhere it is a physcial copy).

If they had the stock, you could change your preorder to the one you want.

I agree, if you prefer the white and don't care about the bonuses, then switch your preorder to white.

As for me... I prefer the white console but the fact that the deluxe comes with the 2 year thing is tempting. And Nintendo Land isn't looking as bad as I thought it'd be. Hearing everything is able to be played singleplayer is a plus too.

[jono]

I want Nintendoland, I want the extra accessories, I want the NN premium, and I plan on buying lots of downloadable games at launch. So, yes.

[Alph]

I think it's worth it. Nintendo Land was going to be a day one purchase anyway. I really like the look of it and it would be good to play at sleepovers or with my little sister. I want it because of the stands, the extra space and Nintendo Premium which you can't get anywhere else. I'm getting the ZombiU bundle so it will be even more cheaper (than buying the stuff separately).

It's more of a value thing. For $50 more you get a game, quadruple the space, more accessories, and 2 years of premium online service. That's ridiculous for only $50 more. Obviously to someone who doesn't want Nintendo Land or plans to not connect online...maybe the $50 isn't something they want to spend.

^^^This... word for word taken right from my mouth

[Robotic Sunshine Commander]

i want nintendo land, the black console ( white looks cheap), and all the accessories just for the hell of it

[GreatestGamer]

If they had the stock, you could change your preorder to the one you want.

Well at the time they did have the stock, now they are completely sold out of both, so I guess I will have to stick to the black one.

I wish I could, but the dude that works at Gamestop said that most likely I would have to get to the back of the line when it comes to pre orders or I might get the 2nd or 3rd rounds of shipments, saying that unless someone fails to show that ordered a white one or changed their order I'm out if luck.

why would you care what everyone else thinks? yes a majority of people want the black wii u but there is nothing wrong with getting the white one.

Obviously I really don't, seeing that all the gamers that I know personally that are friends and family, hate Nintendo and think it's a kiddie system. I mean ALL of my friends are Sony or Xbox fanboys..so obviously I don't care too much because I'm probably the definition of a Nintendo fanboy.

I guess it was more of being persuaded to get the Deluxe, especially from the Gamestop employees, that were like dude "the White Wii U us ugly" and blah blah

[Expansion Pak]

The Deluxe and Nintendo Land are worth it IMO.
I first started to want NL when it was shown off at E3. I loved the idea and the concept.
I want the Deluxe because of:

• Its Black
• Nintendo Land
• The 24 extra GB
• The Charging Cradle
• 2 Year subscription thing
• Did I mention that it was Black?

[GreatestGamer]

However I do want the black one, simply because of Nintendo Land, because there's not very many lunch games that I'm crazy about, so I might only pick up 1-2 games on launch day.

And therefore Nintendo land helps.

Maybe I'm still stuck on the Sega Dreamcast launch....man that was awesome... Powerstone, Sonic, Mortal Kombat, Ready to Rumble and House of the dead..all on one day.

I am getting the deluxe because its like why not. More memory for free. It comes with a stand and charger and Nintendo land. To me just the system and game is the $350 then your get the extra stuff for free.
I dont care to much about the Nintendo land if it was not included i wouldnt buy it, But since it is in the deluxe bundle i feel more like its a demo game for the system. Kinda like wii sports, and i look up the chager and thats around $25. So i just feel like its a better deal getting the deluxe.
I do however feel that nintendo should of gave more choices and released a Basic White and Black and then a Deluxe Black and White.
But ah it cool with me. The black will fit in with everything else i got and look good. Also the gamepad wont show dirt. (lol family guy).

Hm. Yeah it wouldn't work if they're sold out of white preorders. But honestly launches are kinda first come first serve, so it would work if they had one available >>

8 GB isn't even a limitation.

Just plug in an external hard drive you no doubt have laying around or go buy one if you need to.
