I never said the controls were bad, I said the controller is.  The sticks are bad, the triggers poor, the shape when holding it in your hand will not be confortable playing for exteneded periods.

It's a good thing then, that we don't have to rely on your assessment.

[...]"When playing, we were interested in. Of course, the Wii U GamePad. This was a bit easier in the hand than expected and in comparison with the very serious prototypes now clearly lost weight. With half a kilo of Nintendo's touch screen controller is indeed easier than Apple's iPad, a real lightweight fabric layer but it is still not.Although our relatively short game sessions still not allow a judgment for long-term use of the Racing Wheel, we can at least hold on before, it's good in the hand, over the two (now more protruding) analog sticks can be operated without difficulty. Also, the digital control pad left nothing to be desired and fits well with a slight indentation on the thumb."[...]

[...]The new controller in the center

The heart of the Wii U is not the console itself, but the special controller with touchscreen. This is very comfortable and easy to hold, because the housing for the most part is made of plastic, which brings with it little weight. Nevertheless, the quality of workmanship in order - the controller can also withstand a fall from a realistic height notwithstanding, as we found out accidentally. The 6.2 inch touch-screen responds quickly and reliably, and also offers a very attractive picture. The display resolution is probably 848 x 480 pixels - a precise statement does not currently Nintendo. Purely subjective, the picture is crisp and sharp. The colors will be bright and clear. Up close, the quality of the TV image is not far behind, and the size of the image is perfect. This is how the controller is a very good overall figure: weight, size, and processing facilities are very positive, the motion control system is working properly and the display stands for quality and touch screen."[...]

All gaming and hardware sites report unanimously that the gamepad is fine. This includes button layout, weight, ergonomics. I'll provide google translation for the german sites soon, so as to not put a personal spin if I translate it myself. [done]

 

Seeing someone like you, with your 92 platinum trophies and your post history, being pretty much the only one trashing the controller, I can totally not see how you would be biased in the slightest way. We should all trust your word on this and disregard buying the Wii U. Ahem, sorry, I watched the new South Park episode yesterday, I think my brain is infected with sarcasm. I'll go see a doctor right away.
