| ECM said: I gotta ask: who are these people that want to play with the Pro Controller over the Gamepad? Do they really exist or are they merely (one of) the spear point(s) that fanboys use to discount the console in general (up there with grousing about Bayonetta 2 and the state of some ports having full HD and 60fps)*? Cause, seriously, who wants *less* functionality? *And Nintendo has it primarily to head such criticism off at the pass. |
Well one of the main reasons for the Pro Controller is that it's a viable option for competitive local multiplayer games. Like say you want to play a game like Madden or COD with a buddy... player 1 is obviously going to be using the Wii U's game pad, but what is the other going to use? Wiimote and nunchuck?!? Get outta here!
Also, with the Wii U gamepad's rumored 3-5 hour battery life, if you're the type of person who plays traditional games like AC3 or COD or whatever for long sessions at a time, then the longer-life Pro Controller again becomes a great option, since the U pad's touch screen and motion controls aren't mandatory for games like that.
