That sounds pretty sweet, but how would it work with only one Gamepad? If you wanted to do 2 vs. 2, one of the teams wouldn't get the Gamepad advantage.
@OP: I think the Gamepad will be used conservatively in Mario Kart Wii U. Acting as an additional screen would be ideal since it would allow a fifth player to join each race. And maybe it could work as a rearview mirror during single-player action. Other than that, I don't know what else Nintendo could do. Maybe an asymmetrical multiplayer mode where the Gamepad player can manipulate items in a battle arena or something?
