I guess Star Fox 64 sort of benefited from a gimmick in how it introduced the Rumble Pak. That said, the important thing about the Rumble Pak was that it could be unplugged easily without taking much from the game experience. I really believe that if Star Fox U is going to be as successful as Star Fox 64, it has to approach the game pad the same way. Make good use of the gamepad, but also provide gamers with plenty of game play options with the standard controllers.
The best gimmicks are the kind that aren't forced on people.
