I dont' know about that. New Super Mario Bros U is a pretty high profile game for a Nintendo console. Whether or not that uses the Wii U to its fullest is all Nintendo.

The problem is if Nintendo starts to cram in as much functionaity in every game you Nintendo haters will start crying about how they add too much functionality in every game and it feels gimmicy. Just like all the waggling complaints with the wii mote.

Calm your tits. Just because I'm not a Nintendo fan, it doesn't mean I'm a hater.

I myselef never complained about any sort of waggling controls. Why? Because I never bought a Wii to begin with. The funny thing is that I was so excited when it was first announced. Good thing I did my reserach though. I saw that the technology was just a gimmick. 

Now comes Wii U. In my opinion, I say let developers do what they want with the Wii U. If they get ideas to use the Gamepad in a MEANINGFUL way....then do it. If not then don't. There is a Wii U Pro controller for a reason.
