Should Nintendo offer an optional WiiU SKU without the Gamepad?

I have a WiiU and voted yes because I need a new gamepad. I need them to start selling them separately. The left analog stick is acting up and it's out of warrenty already. I don't want to miss it for weeks shipping it off for some overpriced repair.

That sucks. Good thing most Wii U games allow you to use the Pro Controller and Wii's classic controller. Or i hope so.

Yup. It still works but occasionally is slow to respond or doesn't stop going. It was a pain in Windwaker HD jumping from flower to flower up the deku tree and onto swinging ropes. It would be nice if Nintendo can make a sleeker designed gamepad with better battery life.
