Responsiveness depends on the sensitivity dial and the amount of processor power used to register that touch. I've seen plenty of shitty capacitive touch devices just as I've seen a lot of shitty resistive, saying one is more responsive than another is kinda weak since you are not supposed to use them the same way.

no, its very well known that capacitve touch screens are miles ahead of resistive touch screens in terms of sensativity. just because you used a crappy capactive touch screen doesnt make them any less superior. fact is wiiU's touch screen is 4 year old tech, simple as that


I won't argue about the Wii U since it does run on older tech even though it's very responsive, but if you broaden the perspective of touch screens in general then you would be incorrect and your information is outdated.

i actually thought about it quite a lot, and the addition of resistive makes no sense other than reducing the price of the gampad. nintendo them selfs claim that the gamepad adds value to gameplay. so there main reason to add the touch screen was to improve gameplay. and we all know in the middle of a game responsivness is VERY important. a quick and slight tap should be able to register a touch. but resistives technology works against that. it needs to feel pressure not a slight touch and that there will harm nintendo's goal to add value to the gameplay

Right, like I said, I won't argue about the Wii U because some people are just not used to it and it does run on more proven tech instead of new tech so I can understand that, but you are coming at me with the Wii U, and that wasn't even my discussion since it was focused on the common misconception that somehow capacitive is a lot better than resistive which has been debunked by the tech demo I posted from 2009 as it is very responsive, very accurate, most likely cheaper to produce, and can work with a brush lol. The weaknesses are that resistive are not covered by a gorilla glass and the requirement for stronger back light.
