Forget sales, would you like Wii U as much without the Gamepad?

And? Apart from these handful games no games use it. Even mariokart 8 ignores it (if you forget the horn). If top tier games dont use it then it looses its purpose. Plus we need some "meaningful usage" like wii mote, not just afterthought usage which can easily be done from wii u pro controller.

Edit: The thing is you need games that are build around the gamepad. We havent seen that. Thats why people have raised voice.

See, there's a difference between "no games" and "a handful". I don't disagree that it is under-utilized, but it's an exaggeration to say there aren't any games that utilize it.

It was said from a general point of view. Everyone (at least in the gaming forums) knows that gamepad has games that utilizes it. My point of view was from "average gamers" point of view. If I ask an average gamer they might not know it and some might think wii u gamepad is an add on (from their point of view). And Nintendo is a company that is known for making "great" usage of peripherals. But they also have given up to use the gamepad.
