Nintendo will still release games for the gamepad, althought none of those use it in a meaningful way.

What defines "using the Gamepad in a meaningful way"? It's different things to different people from what I gather.

Here's the list of Gamepad features

-NFC - There aren't games now that uses that feature, aside from Skylanders

-Motion control  - Wii, Kinect Move, and only few games uses it, like Nintendo Land

-Off-tv play - Ok

-Extra sound - ??? Nothing meaningful

-Second screen map/Menu - ??? Nothing meaningful

-Second screen control input/mechanics (including blowing on the Gamepad) - Nothing meaningful (blowing is akward)

 

If a game offers more than 3 of these, I consider that game to use the Gamepad in a meaningful way...


As said, only Nintendo Land and to an extent Zombi U showed us the potential of gamepad. Games supporting Controller Pro show us how important is the gamepad.
