If consoles sales are all about the software, then what's the point Wii U's second screen?

Have you ever played The World Ends With You or Fragile Dreams?^

 

The gamepad does add to the cost of the system, but so does any controller, its a single unit its not something you can look at broken into pieces.

The hardware itself is what it costs.
