Forums - Nintendo Discussion - CES: How it feels to hold the Wii U controller + video interview!

Does anyone know if the Circle Pad is like the 3DS's? Is it smooth? But a great thing to hear that it is comfortable! I was kind of worried about it being too heavy.

Then it is settled! We will start a petition to get Nintendo to allow Bklfish to hold the controller himself. Operation Ocarina!

 

There are better titles out there.

I have read, and of course made a thread on it, that the circle pad is actually very comfortable. Light weight as well. Battery life is good, but it is held by a screw! I would think that after a while it would wear out quickly!


You've held it before?!

If it was more like how the PS VITA is it would look comfortable but yeah if you are going on look then it doesnt look comfortable at all. The PS VITA is like a portable Wii U so you want it to be comfortable.

We will probably be seeing games way before E3. It seems Nintendo will hold pressers and Nintendo Direct video throughout the year. So hopefully we have a good look at the different games that are going to be in the launch window.

Wow, took me a while to find my posts. Here is one source for battery life if you are still waiting, I added the price rumors to the other thread.

Lol! I thought we were talking about the Circle Pad pro. See bold. 

Yup saw that when I quoted you

I thought it was strange as if there was something WiiU related I would have known about

Well there is a Wii U batter life rumor, but it is from a while ago! It was also mentioned a few times. I am not actually positive what it was about , but something about how it was charged so on and so forth.

I will search for it later.

You mean how it might use the cradle as a stand and charger? I think that will be the way to do it. Just like how we do it with 3DS.

Maybe the U-pad will act as a screen that can always be on with text and news, mail, faceboock, twitter stuff popping up or flying by slowly.
