This can work well with surround sound. Imagine looking at a parade and hearing a commotion coming from the back and being able to move with the game-pad to the sound's location to see what is happening.

This could also work well in scary scenarios in horror-survival games. Imagine playing in a scenario where your character is under a gigantic well and hanging on to a swinging rope and needs to climb out quickly because monster are chasing you from every angle (there could be cliffs where monsters can come out of the well's side) besides the opening of the well. The TV screen can be the opening of the well and moving the gamepad screen away from the tv screen shows the different angles of the well. So although you're staring straight at the TV from where you're sitting or standing your character is actually looking up at the well's opening, so pointing the gamepad behind you is the same as staring down the well and pointing the gamepad to the left or right shows the well's sides (trying doing this with a laptop)!. This with surround sound would be pretty cool.
