I think this has more to do with the massive cost of the screen and not wanting consumers to see a game requiring a second one. The Wii Remote / Nunchuk is already excessively priced, the tablet would probably cost $100 stand alone (6" touchscreen is not cheap) and that will turn way too many people off.

Myself, I like this being separate (as long as Wii Remote remains an option). It's not super heavy but I can see a problem with marathon Zelda sessions. It also mean my investment in Wii Mtion+ Remotes isn't lost (not an issue for all people). I think it's actually kind of cool that we still get to use our old controllers from the previous system with the new one, even PS2 didn't entirely do that (they added the pressure sensor buttons). It also makes it easier to see both platforms supported (one set of peripherals in Toys R' Us).

Where I would call this move a mistake though, is things like Madden. Selecting plays separately and such (what was pushed for Sega's VMU) or other small scale uses of the screen are out. Though as I said above, the biggest issue is the price of the screens I imagine. The bandwidth for the stream probably also factors into it. Remember, in Japan's small apartments (or dense urban Europe / America) radio interference is an even bigger deal, and adjacent apartments all throwing out multiple streams could start causing some real issues.

I hate using my old footages but I don't know how this turning is slow at all. I can understand some people not having as much precision as me, but there is noway it's slower, it's faster if you have my kinda settings, but you gotta be good at it. I'm just good with all controls =P. In the end though, KBO and Mouse is still the best setup /shrug.

That actually is moving pretty fast. What are your settings at?

I have The Conduit so I could try it out. That or try similar settings on KZ3 to see if it makes me enjoy it on Move as well.

I don't play K/B & Mouse so this kind of style has always been alienating to me.

Generally hitbox really small and camera move speed really high, you have to tweak it, the trick is not using your arm but your wrist, I was up and running in like 5 minutes after I got the game a long time ago after some testing.

KZ3 wouldn't work as well, it has the same "weight" as the analog stick when you use move whereas Conduit moves closer to a mouse setup. I still have to play Conduit 2 =/ it's sitting there lol, stupid LA Noire and League of Legends.

Well that would still be alright for me. I wouldn't mind it having the same "weight" as an analog. I just want to be able to turn as fast as I do with analog while having better aim with a pointer.

I'll fuck around with it later. That is if I finish up with Vanquish first.

Game is so awesome.

That does sound in line with every video Nintendo showed at the E3.
Each time they showed several people playing on the Wii U in the same room, only one of them had a Wii U controller ( and on some noone was actually using the Wii U controller, it was just displaying additional information for the game).
My guess is that there are technical limitation in terms of streaming data to more than one controller as well as displaying it on the TV at the same time. There are probably issues in term of cost of the controller ( I would hazard the new Wii U controller isn't going to come cheap if you want to buy an extra one, I would guess the controller sold alone will probably be around 100$).

Why is this different from split screen? Can someone explain it to me?

Wow thats just stupid.

If you have 2 controllers suddenly you have a handle the following at the same time:

- 1080p display on HD tv.

- 2 touchscreen sensitive displays with different viewports through wireless videom stream.

That's starting to be a lot. 

Each controller you add increases the use of the graphic card memory used too as adding a controller doesn't reduce the definition on the Tv or the others controllers ( whereas with splitscreen instead of one huge screen you have two small ones so the actual memory used by the pixels is the same).

The main issue would probably be that games optimized for one controller would start to slow down when you add another controller or could even run into graphic memory issue ( and to prevent that you would have to design the games so that they only use 80% of the memory to account for the possible use of extra controllers...)

And then like someone else said there is the issue of handling multiple wireless video streams which does require some power, suddenly your Wii U starts to look like a wireless router..)

I'm sure you will be able to buy replacements from the Nintendo online store. 

Also, I have faith that Nintendo will hear our pleads/complaints, if they are indeed thinking of only supporting one tablet controller
