By now, it'll do more bad than good... especially more so considering Nintendo's 3 major games this year (Splatoon, Super Mario Maker and Star Fox Zero) all make good use of the Gamepad. |
From what I've seen and played, only Mario Maker does. Not Splatoon, and definitely not the abomination.

You haven't played Splatoon.
It makes great use of the gamepad.

You hardly require the gamepad. The map should've been placed on the TV, and the only reason it's on the gamepad is because of a desperate attempt from Nintendo to justify the gamepad. Gyro aiming isn't exactly a must. Besides, unbundling the gamepad doesn't mean to discontinue it. Just sell it as a peripheral. Heck, you could still have an SKU where the gamepad is bundled.
However.... It's too late. Nintendo should've unbundled it a long time ago.

It´s not a fucking desperate attempt of nothing, it´s a logical and intuitive choice, the gamepad makes Splatoon way more fast and dinamic than already is, they need each other, it would be way less fun and accesible without the gyro controls and jumping to your friends would require to stop the game, put a list of your teammates in your face, and chose one of them with the stick, making you lose 15 seconds easily on a game where the matches are 3 minutes long. And the missile would be even worse, stop the game, put a map on your face, and chose with the dpad the exact point you want it to fall, another 15 seconds lost when in the gamepad you just tap and that´s it.
