Though the feature in Splatoon doesn't seem like a minor like in WW. It seems more vital and could be a deciding factor in matches between winning or losing a match, since the screen makes it easy to jump to certain areas on the map. Wouldn't that seem a bit of a handicap if you couldn't do that with a pro controller?

Though if they can configure this feature to work on a standard controller, then more controller options should definitely be offered.

They don't need to. My point was that the feature wasn't important enough to force the gamepad. In WWHD, you could switch items on the gamepad while still using the Pro Controller. There's no reason this same idea can't be used here. Let players use the Pro Controller, and for the 5% of the time you need to use the touch screen it's still there.

So are you suggesting that you mainly use the pro controller and have the tablet on the side to use to warp around the stage? Hmm, I never considered that. Alright then, nevermind what I said. That seems like a good option for those who prefer different controllers.

It's probably apparent that I never played the Wii U version of WW...
