All of Nintendo's recent, very successful, systems have exhibited this schizophrenia. Are you supposed to play a DS game with the gamepad or with the stylus? Is the wiimote a motion wand, an NES gamepad, or a Gamecube controller that's been split in half?

The answer is: Depends.

Versatility is the point of all three controllers, and versatility between augmenting a TV experience or providing a portable experience when the TV is busy is the whole point of the Wii U.



"The worst part about these reviews is they are [subjective]--and their scores often depend on how drunk you got the media at a Street Fighter event."  — Mona Hamilton, Capcom Senior VP of Marketing
