The Wii U Basic comes in a blue box marked “Basic Set – 8G”

When the Deluxe system comes, I’ll plan on unboxing that as well.Īnd so, without further adieu, the Wii U (Basic): So today’s post will be all about the unboxing of the Basic (White) Set of the Wii U. He can beat anyone on the planet on Super Mario Kart, so it’s worked out well for him.Īnyway, the box sat here in my living room unopened for about a day when it stuck me, I really should test out the system, right? After all, I don’t want the system to be DOA when I give it to the kids, and if there’s any updating to be done, I should really do it first, right? (Okay, I really wanted to play, but we’ll keep that between us :P) My nephew Michael has a penchant for jumping around wildly whenever he plays the Wii, which was one of my inspirations for starting up. I actually got them the Wii five years ago, and it brought a ton of joy to almost every family gathering.

It’s all part of the great Nutwiisystem weight loss plan.īut I figured they’re the perfect ages for a Wii U (9, 11, and 14) and it won’t be long before they’re all growed up, so I figured I should seize the day. I wasn’t originally planning to be so extravagant (especially since the wedding pretty much blew away a healthy chunk of my savings), so I guess I’ll just have to start bringing healthy home cooked to work instead of eating out for lunch every day for a few months. My nephew’s birthday happens to fall on Thanksgiving, and I’ll be going to my brother’s house in a few days to celebrate. I figured I’d go for the title of World’s Greatest Uncle, so I bought my nephew and nieces a brand new Wii U Basic. But in the meantime, I was in Toys R Us yesterday and saw a big stack of Basic systems in stock. So, I pre-ordered a Wii U Deluxe from Walmart, which should be arriving sometime before the end of the week.
