Talking with my girlfriend about the wii u earlier, and saying that if they have a good showing at e3 i think i'd be up for buying it, and even getting third party games like assassins creed 3 and darksiders 2 on it...then she asks "but what about installing your games, how are you going cope with that if there's no hdd and you can't". I'm under the impression that there will be sd cards and you can plug in an external drive if you want but is it technically feasible to be running such big games installed from an external hdd? Sorry if thats a noobish q but I have no idea. I think the ability to install games would be the big deciding factor for me between buying a 3rd party game on the wii u or the 360.
So I'd wish it has the ability to install your games, but does anyone know if nintendo has talked about this at all?
They're a lazy method to inject replayabilty into software.
God forbid you get value out of your purchase!
As most of you know, I am the King of Australia due to my sexy nekkidness. Games are expensive here. If something in the game extends its replayability I'm all for it. I don't want to spend $100 (that's $105US/£65) just for an eight hour game.

I believe you're somewhat confused @Aviator. By contradicting my statement, you just contradicted your own. But I guess that's the norm between all Kings and Presidents.
I don't think so. You see Achievements as lazy ways to extend replayability.
I welcome the replayability, as I get value for money.

Nah, Achievements/Trophies are more of an annoyance to me than fun. They don't even do anything, such a worthless addition.
Maybe an annoyance to you but others enjoy them. No reason to not have a feature when people want it.
I could say the exact same thing using the opposite argument. So that doesn't really mean much.

Nope. Optional would be me having a way to turn them of completely. Sure, I don't have to DO the achievements. But sometimes you actually do them by mistake or just because of exploration and a little achievement comes up in the corner with a annoying sound ruining the fun.
They should be able to be turned of completely if you want to.
They'll most likely include it, but for me it doesn't really matter. Although it does give an incentive to do certain things in games, it's not the driving force in games for me, but it would be nice and something that would give their games more replay-ability for many gamers.

But they can. Even if you couldn't who said you had to get every achievement? Come on now.

better online service the virtual console service but with games from sega saturn, dreamcast, nintendo N64, gamecube, neo geo that it is powerful than the wii- never mind being on par with x box 360, PS3 is backwards compatible with the wii and 3DS more quality 3rd party titles and for the likes of capcom, konami, namco, SEGA to name to properly support this console that we see more less known nintendo franchises on the wii U- they deserve to be played as the likes of mario, zelda that you can access your Facebook and twitter accounts and send messages to users via the wii U
I don't like achievements very much. In any game I play with achievements I just ignore them anyway. I'd like it to be more than just a gaming console, y'know, like with apps and such. Which they probably will have since they said it shouldn't be labeled as a home console 'cause it's so much more than that.
