Gamepad is fine, but just get the basic classic controller for Wii U.

I have the second one. But think I had the first one on Wii. Got it with Monster hunter tri.

Both have been great! Whichever is cheaper, my man!

There is a classic controller for Wii U? Can you link to it please

 

I would obviously prefer to get the cheaper Wii Classic Controller if it would work on the Wii U well (do not care that it is wired)

Don't forget to post your impressions. Glad you didn't get shitty games like Landguy. That guy....

*shakes fist*

"Classic controllers" need a Wiimote to plug into.  I'd say the gamepad and 1 wiimote/nunchuk is the way to start.  I have a "U" Pro controller as well, and that thing is one sleek and sweet controller.

I was going to make a thread about it tomorrow. I did not spend but a couple of hours with it last night (and 90% of that updating the system) so far I have updated it and watched stuff off Hulu Plus. I have not played a game yet.

 

Idk if I will ever get used to Circle (A) for enter and Cross (B) for back. Its the opposite on Playstation and I have been in the Playstation ecosystem for 12 years almost exclusively (also PC games work the same way as Playstation)

3DS is one thing but getting a Wii U? I think you're going to have to hand in your Sony card sir. * takes out pair of scissors*

You'll get used to it.  After a generation of getting used to the Xbox 360 layout and forgetting the backwards Nintendo layout (Wii Remote for the win), I was hitting the wrong button every time.  Took me a while to get back in the groove.  It's second nature now.  I'm sure you'll like the analog placement too.

So a Wiimote/nunchuk and a Wii Classic controller? and I will be able to play anything I want?

So if I get these

I can play Wii games and play games like New Super Mario U and Super Mario 3D World with my GF?

Did you ever get my miiverse comment even though I am banned? @ kwaidd If he was going to do motion control, then that would be good as well. Which he seems to want to. You are correct!


Yeah, I saw it.  I even replied to it days ago (from my phone.  Didn't have electricity for a few days at home.)
