I kinda think Nintendo is making a mistake insisting that the GamePad remain part of the Wii U.
It's keeping the system too expensive, and to be honest the Miyamoto game concepts that are supposed to make the Game Pad look more interesting just seemed really dull and forced.
They'd be better off ditching the GamePad, replacing it with a standard controller with a (cheap) NFC chip built in and bundling it with 1-2 amiibo toys for $249.99 this holiday IMO (or even ... gulp $199.99?). Bundle either Mario 3D World or Mario Kart 8 with some amiibo functionality added.
