Imo that grandma crowd, and older casual gamer crowd will think wiiu is way to complicated. Its much more less friendly than Wii. I think they made a mistake. The Wii took away alot of controller issues, but wiiu brings back the complications. However Microsoft seem to be on the easy to play path. Microsoft and Nintendo are on 2 completely different paths. Making games unportable.


in a way i kind of see your point nintendo's goal to take all the standard buttons used on conventional controls ( which some people say confused people ) and add even more input options like the touchscreen, cams, mic etc... if just having the conventional buttons confused some people what about if there are even more input options present?

but of course nintendo has said that they will continue supporting wiimotes and they will be used in some of the games for the wii u so at least in that case there will be familiarity for wii fans

The success of the DS is a point against that, though your concerns may still prove valid, though it largely depends on the kind of software Nintendo chooses to bring to Wii U

But from a pure "intimidation" standpoint, Wii U only has the fact of analogues with a d-pad to be more intimidating than a DS

true i didn't even consider that when you look at it the ds almost has the same amount of input options, but my comment was in relation to people who have said that they find the wii easier to adjust to because its input methods are less complicated than the ones on ps3 and 360
