Pretty harsh review. I've been subbed to his channel for awhile now and he seemed like a trustworthy source for reviews until they said the update was 5gb, it was just an updated wii and called the gamepad gimmicky.

He's a game collector and has one of the biggest collections which includes many rare and retro systems.

Stopped watching after he said "it's a Wii, the graphic is a little better than a Wii". Don't even bother to watch the whole video.

Don't want to waste my time to listen to idiots.

They are so wrong they don't even know it.

[falconsaysyesh]

I agree. I basically took away all possible truth from the video from the moment he said "It's an updated Wii". That's total BS, Besides the fact that they know pretty much NOTHING about the system (5 GB update, seriously? Nintendo already said it was 700 MB - 1GB)

That was a little harsh. It seems like they weren't even nintendo fans anyway.

He's been collecting many consoles and games for many years including NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube and Wii. I subbed to his channel because I thought I could get good honest reviews without bias towards any system, turns out I was wrong... ever since this other guy showed up he seems to be different.

"You see, the Wii U System Update is not 5GB for a start – it’s more like 1.2GB as confirmed by many who have since watched their internet bandwidth counters tick over while downloading the file. The 5GB confusion comes from the fact that the Wii U Operating System (dubbed by some ‘WiiOS’) takes up around 5GB of memory on the built in hard drive. What this means is even if you don’t run the update, your hard drive will have 5GB used up for the system software.
Further, Mr. Bigshot need not be so impatient in future. The “Day One Update” can be downloaded in the background.
When you first set up your WiFi settings on the Wii U, the console finds an update to download and asks if you wish to continue to download. You then have two options; “Yes” and “Cancel”. Hitting “Cancel” will return you to complete the system settings and will load up the Home Menu as normal, leaving you free to play your games as you wish."

They are probably just bored of Nintendo.

They are probably just bored of Nintendo.

they don't like the console because it's from Nintendo? that's bias, so it's still harsh.

[TheftyGamer]

I guess haha. I just got mine today and can't wait to use it. GameStop gave me a call from the waiting list
