Different for its own sake isn't the answer.  Different for the sake of being better, is the answer.  



you've read every post in this thread and you still haven't found the answers? Do you own an iPad? Can you not see the benefits of touch gui..?

The basis of my original post was trying to follow the original argument people were making in the other thread that the Wii U wasn't selling, because the software that sells hasn't been out.  To that, if what they say is true, why did Nintendo include the second screen?  Conclusion here is to either then say that there has to be something with the second screen Nintendo has failed to make compelling for people thus far, and it isn't just software alone.  So, when people are saying the Wii U isn't selling because of the lack of compelling software, they are off.  It isn't selling because of a lack of compelling software that argues the case for the second screen being essential.  But, I left it open for people to end up arguing other ways if they like.



Oh, you're mind was already made up. You concluded it was a failure, that the touch gui is useless feature nobody wanted, and no games can solve the way you see things. This thread was to convince ppl of your opinion and be a forum to exchange ideas. That's alright. Though, I thought you wanted to be convinced of the merits of the gamepad, but you have repeated the point of your op to me twice when I tried to show you the merits. Well carry on then your thread (not able to convince you) will convince others who come in with an open mind.

I have argued that Nintendo has failed, thus far, to make a persuasive argument as to why the second screen is essential.  This thread is all about the second screen being key and people can argue for it being so, and showing it.  And then show how that would make a difference.  It is meant to refute the "software only matters" argument some have said.

But, thus far, seeing the sales numbers, Nintendo hasn't done a good job selling the second screen even close to what they did with motion control.  Feel free to refute this and go on to show that the Wii U's sales numbers are doing gangbusters.

If you want to personalize this, go to my other thread on here, because it deals with my personal experience.  In no way should one take my personal feelings and believe they are the same for everyone.  They just aren't.



You asked what is the point of the pad if sw sells consoles, right? Here's your answer. not that you'll acknowledge you were wrong (to think there's no point)

--->The pad's GUI facilitates the sw.<--- /end thread
