The gamepad introduces new ways to play.
It does things like, showing the rear view mirror in a driving game, or using it like a shield to block arrows, or to hold your ninja stars that you swipe INTO the tv from the remote. There's a lot of cool things about it, and it really should be the one reason to buy a wiiU, not 4 player multiplayer lol.

Those are all just gimmicks. I have yet to see a Wii U game that uses the Gamepad and makes me think "this really makes the game better/more fun".

It clearly does things that have as yet not been possible in games - See Zombi U, Nintendoland and other games with asymmetry. That's a good enough reason for me. As well as the handy keep playing when people want the TV on...

I have to say I would have loved it if it could have coped with 3 pads and a TV for ultimate COD multiplayer!
