I really don't see functionally how this is any different from the existing Wii U GamePad ... except it doesn't have buttons. There's nothing gameplay wise you can do that a Wii U Game Pad couldn't do ... I just don't see the point of doubling down on an already failed idea. Yeah it looks "sleeker" ... but so what?

Sometimes the packageing of things make all the differnce in the world.

This looks alot better than the gamepad, its thin and "sleek" as you say, probably lighter too.

Nintendo are just giveing it another go, with the gamepad.

 

Hopefully this console, has better marketing and name, and better games lineup at launch.

It could still do really well, its to early to doom it just because the controller lacks physical buttons. Even if many here are.

These are just superficial changes though (for something that's functionally worse). This is all flash, no function.
