So the PS3 can connect to 7 Bluetooth devices, but the next gen Wii U only supports 2 tabs!?

Firstly, I'm not trolling - I'm serious.

Secondly, doesn't it depend on the data transfer between the console and the tab? Meaning that it's up to the dev to get it to work with the amount of tab's they desire? I mean come on it's common sense. Why would Ninty block this.

Thirdly, if Wii U is to be very successful then I want to take my tab to my friends house and enjoy some wickedly original 4 (or more!) player games. THAT'S WHAT IT SHOULD BE ABOUT GDMNIT!

Bluetooth 1.0 through 3.0 are very low-bandwith wireless connections that are inadequate for the straming of video (even standard definition video) ...

Bluetooth 3.0 + HS, and Bluetooth 4.0 are newer versions (far newer than the PS3) and have the bandwidth to stream video, but I believe their bandwidth is split between all connected devices and I doubt any one Bluetooth controller could support streaming on more than 2 devices at the same time. You could (possibly) use multiple Bluetooth controllers, but then you would run into processing power problems when trying to render to so many devices at the same time.
