We also saw this with Microsoft and Sony's last-gen systems GTA V updates outpaced the size of some PS3 hard drives, while numerous games can't be played on the hard drive-less model of Xbox 360. Xenoblade Chronicles 3D wouldn't fit on the SD card included with New 3DS systems, while last year's Bayonetta combo was too big even for the 32 GB version of the Wii U. It's not the first time this has happened with a game on a Nintendo system. (SD cards can't be used to store digital games on Wii U.) Even those with the 32 GB system might be forced to delete some of their games, as the full 32 GB is not usable.

While the size of the games is slightly reduced after installation, the initial size is still too large for anyone who doesn't have either a 32 GB Wii U or an external hard drive. Things only get worse if you want to download the remainder of the game (technically offered as a $50 upgrade for the free trial version), which requires an additional 8,186.6 MB download. The download for this on the eShop requires 9964.8 MB, already in excess of the 8 GB of storage the lower-end Wii U model is equipped with. Unfortunately for those with certain Wii U systems, the digital-only game is too large to download.īlack Water offers a trial version that allows access to the first portion of the game. This week's eShop update brought with it the latest entry in the Fatal Frame series, Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water.
