This is such a big deal. For serious. This is the vision of Wii U from the begining. A lot of people think that it doesn't have the 'casual' draw that motion gaming has, but the casual mass market has become very comfortable with touch interface. It's the big trend in tech gear, and the Wii U pad allows conversion of iOS games, and also the conversion of customers who like touch screens. There are a lot of people out there who would like some Angry Birds and Mario Kart in one convenient place. Not to mention Facebook and Youtube. Thow in some COD and GTA5 at $299 and you have a compelling package. A really great marketing campaing that makes Wii U look like an iPad to the casual audience combined with GTA5 and a very impressive Mario 3D title and MarioKart could make Wii U explode in popularity.
