I personally like the gamepad. Playing Splatoon feels streamlined and intuitive as I try to shoot ink and learn the playing field through the second screen. Plus doing the squid jump with the pad is actually really cool. I can't imagine building courses for Mario Maker being any easier without the gamepad. Plus, off TV with Smash and Xenoblade is pretty cool.
I think the controller can be unique while simple to work. As long as there are options and developers aren't forcing something that isn't good for gameplay. Wii Sports and Skyward Sword work with their respective motion control formats. Same with Galaxy. As least in my opinion.
