More durable than i thought it would be http://n4g.com/news/1128298/want-to-know-what-its-like-to-drop-your-wii-u-gamepad

Wow that was awesome!! Looks like moms won't have to worry about their kids breaking the GamePad.

Edit: I wonder what people, who said the GamePad felt cheap, will say about this. 

That is cringe inducing. Impressive how well it survived though.

very impressive considering that was concrete. My house is all tile except for a carpet I put down under the couch in the living room, so this puts my mind at ease.

well Nintnedo have always spent more money on quality builds than gflops.

But will it blend??

pretty impressive

Nintendo's stuff often looks cheap but its durability is unprecedented.

It is obviously very durable but to truly test it you'd have to see it re-sync with a WiiU console. Something inside could have come loose. It does put mind to ease tough when I do buy one after the first console that my little brothers and nephews won't come and destroy it.

Nintendium at its finest.
