The Wii U supports up to eight-player local play, as seen in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. It was intended to be able to support two GamePads, but this was scrapped during development. The console has an internal flash memory, holding 8 GB for the standard set, and 32 GB for the deluxe set. Additionally, the Wii U has the option to expand its memory by using an external USB hard disk drive—however, even though the Wii U has an [[Memory Card|SD Card]] slot, SD Cards cannot be used for Wii U data storage (excluding Mii storage), though they can be used for storing Wii data via the Wii Menu only. This also means that Wii U game data cannot be transferred onto other Wii U systems on SD cards. | The Wii U supports up to eight-player local play, as seen in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''.

Nintendo's current online shop service, first released on the [[Nintendo 3DS]], is also present on Wii U. The Nintendo eShop was first made available on the system through a system update released on launch day via a wireless Internet connection. With the eShop, users can download exclusive Wii U software, demos, and videos, as well as view information on upcoming games, and some Wii titles are available as digital downloads.
