You probably already know what games are out for it and what's coming up, so I will say, the gamepad is cooler than it seems and all the crying about online/graphics/whatever is just that: crying. If you like Nintendo games the Wii U is excellent. And with the dames coming this year it will get progressively more excellent.

Does the Gamepad appeal wear off? Is it used alot in 2D Marios and Zelda? (I know the only Zelda on it is an HD Remake)

 

If they made a Wii U play 3DS games I would buy it in a heartbeat because I honestly want to play A Link Between Worlds (Link to the Past is one of the greatest games of all time to me) but I can not bring myself to get a 3DS either lol

The gamepad is cool because of what you can do with it, not because of what it adds to most of the games I have played. Keywords are off TV play, hulu and netflix streaming to the pad and an excellent web browsing experience. Best use of the pad in games are Nintendoland as far as I'm concerned, and maybe that weird spin the bottle indie game I haven't bought yet.
