The gamepad is a miss, but the answer is for Nintendo to find a way to add value to their console, not strip out what little value the Wii U offers.

Anybody who wants a Wii U without the gamepad should already have a PS3.

You can't play Nintendo's games on the PS3.  

My point about offering an alternative SKU without the Gamepad is not to strip away any value, but to make the prospect of being able to play Ninty's games more affordable to people.

Believe me, I was strongly against separating the Gamepad in any way, but these are desperate times.  And it's Nintendo's fault for not having the gameplay ideas ready upon the device's release to warrant the extra cost that resulted.
