its not hard really. the OP states there is a conflicitng philosophies between hardware and software. of course you dont need to be a genius to see that the end result is the WiiUs current failure. but since you shot down the OP's reasoning, i want to hear yours. unless, you dont have one that is. 

check the quote a few times. see this part "It serves a minimal function in most games, adds a huge cost in development, increases the price of the system for consumers"?

It was enough to know the kind of bullshit that was coming afterwards. and as I said, i didn't read.

Care to explain how that statement is incorrect?

it increases the retail price by what? 50 dollars? wich means no huge cost in development. and regardless of x and y game using it, at the bare minimum, it makes the games slightly better. If you don't want some extra functions in certain games, many titles offer off tv play, wich is amazing.

the fact is that you pay just a little more for a much better controller.
