| NightDragon83 said: The pro controller is being released for 2 reasons... one, because buying separate Wii U gamepads is mad expensive, and two because the system only supports 2 of them, so without alternative controller options like the "pro" controller or backwards compatibility with Wiimotes + nunchuks you wouldn't be able to have more than 2 player local multiplayer. And the not being able to use the touch screen and buttons simultaneously isn't an issue, because no game forces you to use the touch screen as a replacement for buttons, only for special features like the room scanning / lockpicking in Zombie U, or as a quick select inventory in action/adventure games like Darksiders II, where you're going to temporarily stop what you're doing to select / manage inventory anyway. |
That's what Nintendo is telling us but no hardcore gamer is going to use the pad for a seriously intense game.
That is such a BS excuse. Game developers understand the issue and are working around it. That doesn't mean it isn't a problem.
