<p>Nintendo has announced the download size for the first ‘big-named’ title since the console first launched, <em>Lego City Undercover</em>. And with the news it has became apparent that gamers WILL need an external hard drive if they are going down the download route.</p>
<p>The official website reads: <i>“An external hard drive is required to download this software&#8230; Visit support.nintendo.com for information about storage options”.</i></p>
<p>The game itself will eat up 22GB of your memory and although this seems to, just about, fit into the premium version of the console, the Wii U owners of the basic version will have no chance due to console having just 3GB of free space (from the advertised 8GB) after downloading Nintendo’s essential system update.</p>
<p>Are you going down the download-route for your Wii U library?</p>
