illdog Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Has anybody else bothered getting one? I need one now, my puny 8GB has been exceeded has now spilt over on to two (count em!) USB sticks which the WIi U doesnt like much and neither do I. Help and stuff? There are tons available but I wanted you guys to re-assure me and stroke my hair and tell me everything is going to be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I might have to go this route too, not that I can see me downloading a ton of stuff on the WiiU, but I've already had to delete stuff to make room for a patch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted December 29, 2014 Author Share Posted December 29, 2014 Yea, that shits not cool. Buy one Ben, then tell me about it and I'll buy one too. It could be really fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manicm Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I'm getting one of those for my xbox1 ^^ 2tb should do the trick and has pretty good reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 bought. I paid a bit extra and got a USB 3.0 y-cable because the hdd is 3.0, but the WiiU is only 2.0 so it's not really needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted December 29, 2014 Author Share Posted December 29, 2014 That's the one I was looking at actually Marky Wiivo Facebook Mark Lakitu. If its good enough for you two nothern fuckers its good for old paedodog too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I wouldn't mind one of them but I like having the GC adaptor plugged in at all times (I am very lazy). Does the WiiU have any other USB ports than the two on the back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 my hdd turned up today. Annoyingly, even though both are fulfilled by amazon the y-cable is being sent separately, so I can't set it up yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illdog Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 So, I cant get this to work with my Wii U. Its has a white light on the hard drive itself and just makes clicking sound systematically. Tried it on my Xbox One and it worked straight away. What the funk?

DANGERMAN Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 have you plugged the y-cable in? (did you buy a y-cable?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted January 17, 2015 Author Share Posted January 17, 2015 Totes got a Y cable. Also, i tried it on the WIi U first, wouldnt work, thats why i tried it on the Xbox. Stuopid fucking shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 Ive tried both man. Ive tried the lead that came with it too, front and back. And I counted Mississippily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 can you get the WiiU to format the drive? I had a look on google for you, but the only advice I found was that it was a fault with the drive, which it could be, but you've had it working with the xbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 Yea, works perfic on the box. The Wii U cant see the hard drive when its plugged in. Fuck knows. Guess its an xbox hard drive now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 reading around it could be that the hdd has gone in to power saving mode. Apparently if you plug it in to a pc you can change something on it to turn off power saving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 If that works ill be sending you a picture of my cock. Better hope it doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 So I really want to play Xenoblade but i don't have a Wii U yet. I know Xenoblade has some downloads that speed up loading times that will probably take me over the basic 8GB. So what the score external memory? Nintendo's website is saying that the external needs a power source? I don't think I'll need that much memory. So can you just use USB sticks? Will Mario Maker eat it up making levels? What's your set up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 you can use a B stick, if memory serves that's hat illdog was using. But you're risking it failing, wheras a y cable and an external hdd is fine and bigger, it's what I did and I'm pretty great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
