I'd like it less without the Gamepad, but only because I am now spoiled by the convenience it gives for things like Miiverse and internet browsing. Typing or navigating such things is a chore on any other console, but with the Gamepad it's easy like a tablet. I like it for drawing with Art Academy, where it's very precise and can be used to create amazing things.

The best thing I've been spoiled with however, is off-tv play. This has now become crucial, as I would have had a lot less opportunity to play games without it.

I do agree, that for games themselves usage has been a bit lacking. Maps and inventories are nice, but not really groundbreaking. I guess with the sales the system ended up with, they'll never try anything that requires multiple Gamepads either. It isn't the ultimate problem that doomed the system though, I think it could have worked better if they had given the system it's own unique name, identity and a beter marketing strategy.
