I understand what your saying, but I don't think that people want to pass the tablet around. They want to have the awesome experince at the same time and not have to wait or rive it up. It's my gravest concern that the biggest and strongest guy will always have the tablet and wimpier kids will be outta luck. |
I see what you're saying. Think back in the NES days, when siblings/cousins or friends got together to play games like punch-out or Zelda. Even though these were 1-player games, it didn't stop Nintendo from making a killing because the experiences were that much fun that some didn't mind even just watching.
Still, it's a step higher because with WiiU because the other participants aren't just watching anymore, they'll actually be playing. They just won't all have the unique experience at once, and probably the leader (as you're saying) and maybe one other person will hold the padlet since he will do things that affect everyone. And that's just another social dynamic with its own charm. Great thing compared to the NES, everyone gets to play, despite the "biggest and strongest" leader phenomenon of the past, which it has its own charm.
It should also create the "I want one too" phenomenon, since the owner will likely be holding the padlet at get togethers.
