I'd get it quick if I were you. I got it a couple of weeks ago so it's probably ending soon. Also, you can get a 2TB Seagate HDD from Big W for 98 dollars which I got. Works well. Just make sure you get a HDD with an external power source, otherwise it won't work (I learnt that the hard way :p )
EDIT: This is the HDD I got https://www.bigw.com.au/electronics...0816/seagate-expansion-2tb-desktop-hard-drive
Too late they are out of stock :( (Both Southland and Bourke st)

I can't find that deal on their website all I can find is the mario kart premium pack for 429 or a pre owned basic pack for 248.

Does that deal include Mario Kart as well?
Damn, they must've finished the deal or maybe sold out? :( It came with Mario Kart and Skylanders.

I reckon it will eventually, not for their BFs, Star wars, and other big games. But they will want to be getting their casual/'kiddy' games on the Wii U for sure, when it picks up which it will. Hope Nintendo tell them to **** off
Why so sour, EA aren't the only ones not supporting the Wii U, Nintendo console just don't sell third party games warrant constant support.

EA at one point withheld their games from Xbox Live in the PS2 era. They were all online on PS2 only.

Eventually EA came to Microsoft's party and has been pretty successful ever since. EA goes where there is money, if there is enough money to be made on Wii U they'll come back and so will everyone else.

Ok Nintenhoes.

Really thinking about buying a Wii U now instead of a XBONE (will still get this eventually).

My only real concern in the controller tablet thingy, I hate it, never used it but just hate it. Is there a Wii U controller available that is a proper controller that works with all the games?

Yes, Pro Controller.

Edit : The main controller is very comfortable, I was dubious at first but I haven't been bothered by it at all.

Grab one now if you're definitely getting a machine, cheap.
