Accessories

Are there any accessories that you plan on picking up for the Wii U and what are they I plan on picking up a PDP Afterglow headset and a 1 TB External HDD

What are your plans?

1TB External HDD

for now.

and the Wii U pro pad

the headset i would pick up

Will this system be compatible with other headsets that are for the PC? Mine is has a USB port. If not, that's cool, I'll get the one that works for the system. I'm just curious.

I don't see why not. but at the same time, Nintendo might come out with epic headsets themselves (Unless they will make cheap headsets like the ones on Xbox)

Mine were fairly expensive. It would be nice if I didn't have to buy another set. I hope you are right.

1TB External HDD

Probably not, unless they make a proprietary headset.

Also an 1TB External HDD, but I may get this, too.

I don't see myself buying a headset actually. The controller has a mic in it. {;ug in some headphones and wa-lah, headset.

Ditto.

Same. Though I may actually go for 2 TB, cause I will buy SOME games digitally, games I want on my Wii U at all times, though it'll be very few games. And with these games I still want to get my hands on their cases. Gotta have some physicality.

Totally forgot about the Wii U built in mic!

does the Wii U have a Stand? i don't think there is :/

Assuming money isn't an issue? a second gamepad (I know there's no need at first, but I like to be prepared), 2 pro controllers, and maybe a giant HDD (I'm still on the fence about buying games digitally, so I'm not sure about that).

I also might grab another Wii remote +, just because only one of my two wiimotes has motion + built in (again, just to be prepared)

I probably wont need a secondary GamePad for a while, if ever. However, I WILL definitely be buying a pro controller.

Ok, for those of you guys that are more tech savvy...knowing that this system comes with an HDMI cable, how good a quality cable will be in there? should I go out of my way to get a better one?

My guess is that it will be the kind that works as a pass, but on the much lower end. That is usually the case, otherwise the cost would have been much higher. A top quality HDMI cable will cost upwards to about $60-80.

Not that this matters that much, but speaking for myself only, I am a little anal with quality cables. That is just how I am. What about the rest of you?

I just buy another cable if one break. easier to replace a $10 cord than a 60 if that breaks.

I'm wondering if any headphones can work on the controller?

I don't see why not. Any standard headphone works in the DS and 3DS.
