I think Nintendo is still too concerned about the cost of buying a separate Wii U controller for the system because it isn't going to be cheap. I don't doubt that the system can have more than one Wii U controller connected at a time, but buying multiples of that controller won't be cheap for the consumer. But still early on so we'll see how this transgresses over the next 6 months as more games are revealed. |
Yeah, I definitly get the price thing, and that Nintendo probably doens't want to force people to spend $60-80 each per controller (or however much that new tablet controller will cost). It just seems like since it's still esentially going to use Wiimotes for its main control, at least for multiplayer games, Nintendo may as well have just stuck with Wii support. I think they would have been better served following through on some more deep and complex motion plus games instead of moving along to new hardware.
