I liked the prototype they showed when the WiiU was announced, much more tablety, less controller.

The original design was more innovative, at least to me. It's less wide and the back was flat, except for the triggers and thumb rest. But they went with the controller based one to appease third-party developers with the standard analog stick. That worked well... and even now the hardcore still diss the Gamepad even though it functions like the WiiU Pro controller, but with extra functions.

I like the grip handles (whatever you call them) on the back of the new model. And the sticks being moved outwards was to make it easier to move from stick to buttons and back. Oh and hardcore will always diss Nintendo just for being Nintendo. They make kiddy games (aka games for the whole family) more than adult games (aka games for kids that make them feel like a big boy, pew pew BOOM!!!)

The analogs in the prototype were just like the 3DS, circle pads. They moved them outwards when they switched to standard analogs.

Indeed.

My list would be:

1. No real Zelda U yet.
2. No Smash U yet.
3. I don't even have my PS4 yet, so how should I afford one of these buggers when I want one.

No multitasking is what pisses me off the most about it.

#1. The Gamepad is heavy and uncomfortable to game with.

I find the mandatory use of the Gamepad in SM3DW quite annoying.I prefer to play it with the Pro controller, yet I have to use the pad in some levels just to touch the screen to raise platforms, blow in the mic and to turn the camera in those toad levels, something that´s far better with the right analog stick.

The system´s 'best' game doesn´t even make use of the pad properly.

The dvd player does annoy a bit. They had players for fourteen dollars on black Friday. Would it be so hard?



I've never understood people wanting the Wii U to play DVDs/Blu-Rays. The world and his wife already has at least one DVD player in their home if not several. Why on earth does anyone want yet another one..?

As for Blu-Rays they're also very common these days, and then you've got to take into account the popularity of the likes of Netflix, LoveFilm, Hulu etc.

NO graphics? Cool, I like text adventure games, gonna buy a WiiU then =D



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

I live in Australia so streaming TV shows and movies dosent exist here. I just use my PS2 and PS3 when I want to watch movies. Would be awesome to watch movies on my gamepad though
