Clearly though when the gamepad is just generating minor map screens with minimal colours it will not require much processing. Unless we get wii u games that have full on action graphics being generated on both tv and gamepad simultanously I don't think we have to add both resolutions together. |
What about the splitscreen they had in Black Ops 2, where one person used the gamepad as his/her screen and the other one uses the tv?
I'm sure that's not just "generating minor map screens with minimal colours".
