wiiU: 7 x 10.5 x 1.8 = 132.3 sq inches
vita: 3.3 x 7.2 x .73 = 17.35 sq inches
those are your numbers btw...i can't be bothered to look anything up but the wiiU remote is clearly a lot bigger. 132.3/17.35 = 7.6:1
for a controller that doesn't leave your house the wiiU remote is fine but if MS is actually going to have a tablet that people can take with them on the run like people do with the ipad ... the wiiU remote is too bulky for that purpose and MS would be smart to slim the design demensions down.

Umm, the Vita is smaller. You have to go by proportions kitler. Plus, those are cubic inches, and such buggers grow very fast if you're unfamiliar with volume measurements.
Bottom line, my numbers were much more powerful to express bulkiness (surface versus width), so use them instead. 40/32 = 1.25. Only 25% thicker, and we're not sure if that includes the trigger handle (which doesn't count in bulkiness and greatly enhances ergonomics).

no actually, my numbers make more sense. i'm am quite familure with the cubic nature of measuring volume. ignoring the other two dimensions is only a valid arguement when you want falsify circumstances. by your meaurements, a wiiU controller that the size of my 40" LCD tv would be less bulky then the vita as the surface to depth ratio is technically less. are you prepared to say that really stupid statement?

If it is a 40" LCD with a thinner debth compared to a vita's surface to depth ratio, then for all suits and purposes it is less bulky. If you're arguing portability, then of course volumetric measurements are the way to go.
@Volumetrics. So familiar with them you called them square inches. Something's fishy.

...so according to you
