yep looks like i'll be the onlyone play the (when i buy one) Wiiu as i refuse to pay that much just so someone else can play with. srry friends, your on your own.

Actually, most multiplayer will utilize a combination of 1 GamePad and up to 4 more Wii remotes or Pro Controllers.

No developer is even working on multiplayer that uses 2 GamePad's yet as that feature is still locked by Nintendo.

People were wondering why the Wii U OS takes up so much RAM.  Could they be reserving that "extra space" for a possible 2 gamepad feature later?  Better yet what does the gamepad tax the most on the Wii U?  The processor, RAM, GPU? I have no clue.
