How much cheaper do you people want this console to be? It's already the cheapest of the 3 (£250 (Wii U) compared to £350 (PS4) and £430 (X1) even if the controller is expensive to make. Gamecube was cheapest in it's generation as well and yet still got destroyed by PS2. I don't think we can blame the gamepad on Wii U's failure, i think it's more Nintendo created this controller and don't know what to do with it themselves. They seem to lack direction with it. A good idea but not used very much. I'm not sure if just suddenly ditching it for a pro controller or wiimote would solve anything. I may be wrong but i find it hard to see. And if Nintendo did drop it altogether, how would that affect the games that use it properly? like ZombiU for example. I know Donkey Kong don't use it at all. Anyway, i'm not going to link a thing but it's seems the removal of the gamepad is a common thread at the moment, much like the resolution wars and kinect. It's kinda annoying. People should enjoy these things for what they are.

Obviously it needs to be cheaper because people dont seem to be buying it. Maybe price isnt the issue and just not a desirable product
He didnt say drop the gamepad but offer a SKU that doesnt have it.
