I'm not really sure why it has to constantly be pointed out that the GamePad is not a tablet, and shouldn't be COMPARED to tablets, as in at all.
The DS and 3DS are not "tablets". They are portable gaming devices, with regular gaming controls, that happen to have touch screen input as well.
The GamePad is the exact same thing. A regular controller, with ALL the regular amenities (and then some), plus it has a nice big touch screen, that also acts as a nice off-tv screen and second screen for gaming.
That's it. That's all. End of story. If Nintendo wants to promote something, promote GAMES with better advertising. Fuck "trying to edge in on tablet markets".
