More appealing looking? Sure

More functional? Not sure

Though if it costs less to make than the old Gamepad, they should certainly do that. I've long said that a smaller, sleeker gamepad would entice more buyers.


Well i guess its to late now^^ 

But i think the gamepad design might be one of many reasons why the wii u failed. Many core gamers saw it and where instandly uninterested (not everybody even knows the pro controller does exist). 

Alot of my friends also said things like:" Wow it is alot better as i thought it would be". 

Like i said, the gamepad is ok for gaming (i still prefer the pro controller) but the appearance made alot people not beeing even interested for the whole console/the 2nd screen concept in my opinion.
