So those of us who don't care for the Gamepad now have further evidence to blame the thing for the system's pricetag. Yay!

I think without GamePad the basic setup for Wii U could be launched at $250.

That's really cheaper.

" if all that everyone does is uses the enhanced power to create more and more games that look and feel the same, then all that it becomes is a competition about the power of the hardware rather than the uniqueness of the experience. "

I thought the gamepad was what made Wii U so much more expensive

Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Prediction: Switch will sell better than Wii U Lifetime Sales by Jan 1st 2018

Sony/MS would probably make an even worse case for the value of the gamepad than Nintendo have managed to do, so it's a good thing they don't come with one.

All I see here is that Nintendo could've had a $200-250 Wii2.

Sony have one per $250? lol

Lol, case in point.
