This is my first post. love the site. I just got my wii u... I bought it used. I has no hdmi cables or power cables for the gamepad or console. Please point me in the right direction. Thank you.
You will probably have to get a power cable from Nintendo, so you might as well just order everything from there. Why don't you have the cables?
EDIT: I'm not sure how much you paid, but it seems like the cables are pretty expensive from Nintendo, and that seems to be the only place to get the A/C power cable.
Those newegg cables are still kinda expensive, I got a pack of three HDMI cables on Ebay for five bucks. Nice and thick, too. Never buy cables in a store, they'll screw you over big time. Power supply on the other hand, I'd only go official. No telling what crappy components go into cheap power supplies.
Lots of censorship here...

Ya, but if I want cables now, I would just go buy them at the store. It's not worth waiting 3-5 days for shipping to save $5 when that's not really an issue.
I do agree for the most part on SOME cable prices being too high, though.

Thx for all your replies. Does the gamepad need a special charger or is it a micro usb? Also, is the hdmi cable just a standard hdmi cable?
It's a special charger. The Nyko cables I linked you to look like they're only showing the micro USB part for the Pro Controller, so you might want to check if you look at the store.

I have tried quite a few places to get my HDMI cables, including amazon, walmart, and other big box stores. The best quality HDMI cable I have bought came from FireFold. All of their cables come at a great price.
