DoA is a bold assertion. I'd retract.

I would think it'd be tough to argue with. The Wii U concept was certainly not received with a great deal of enthusiasm by the community at large. The vocal reluctance of publishers to embrace the concept provides more credence to the idea that the console's main appeal is something of a non-starter.

1. What's the community at large suppose to mean? Forums? Moot point, if so.

2. Has there been some mass vocal reluctance from publishers about the gamepad that I'm unaware of?

1. Video gaming/consumer market as a whole. Comparing the Wii launch to the Wii U, you can see the difference between a successfully received concept and one that has not received a strong reception.

2. I'm referring to various comments from developers/publishers that they are not developing game X or game Y for the Wii U because they couldn't think of anything to do with the GamePad. I recall hearing something to that effect from Gearbox, among others.
