Between the DS, 3DS and smartphones there are countless examples of how to use a touch screen in interesting ways so even mediocre developers should be able to use them effectively. |
Hah! This post made me smile.
But it also kinda proves the point. We've seen plenty of dual screen and touch screen games already. Therefore the Wii U is going to offer much more modest gameplay opportunities over already existing platforms (insert word "asymmetric" here).
It's no big deal. No industry gets turned upside down every five years. It could be decades before anybody builds a game system as successfully divergent as the Wii.
