It uses a combination of gyro controls and analog sticks for perfect shooter controls that are much more fun to play with than your traditional dual analog shooters. You can't do that with just a Wii U Pro controller. You can jump to your friend or a specially placed beacon whenever you want, not just at respawn. You also need the gamepad to use the ink strike special ability. The arcade minigames while you wait in lobbies in between matches are also played on the gamepad screen.

The wii motion plus has all thouse gyro controls and buttons and its still compatible with the wii u. And I got to say, for me shooters where never better than when I played them with the wii motion plus. The rest are just buttons, including the special ability. No need to have a touch screen when there are buttons to spare.

Splatoon makes use of analog stick and gyro controls at the same time to create the best shooter controls on a console. If you haven't played it don't comment on it. Wii Motion Plus would use IR pointer to aim, not gyro controls. A control system like Splatoon is NOT possible with the Wii Motion controller.

This I dont belive. One of my favorite games ever is metroid prime and all 3 where ported easyly to the wii and the IR pointer worked marvelous for all. That feels more like a mouse than just using the gyro scope, cuz its actually pointing and clicking. Wii controller has motion controlers, analog sticks, IR pointers and its shaped perfectly into something used for shooting, pinting, swinging and anithing else, its far supirior for a shooter in everyway than the gamepad.
