Party games and 2D platformers were the last thing that was on my mind when it came to the gamepad functionality. Unlike the wii they've failed to make software that proves what the Game Pad is all about. |
Nintendo Land shows off the Game Pad in a variety of different play scenarios quite well and NSMBU and other games show off the pad's other primary feature -- off TV play. So does Zombi U and Scribblenauts.
Nothing is going to be like the Wiimote again for a long time, probably not until virtual reality really takes off. I think people need to understand the Wiimote was catching lightning in a bottle and doesn't happen all the time (or every 5-6 years for that matter).
The Wii U controller is not so much about "changing" game play more than it is about being a living room companion and making gaming a bit more convienant.
