the wii u gamepad has yet to prove useful at all to me. i have a pro controller and just use that for everything so far (new mario/luigi, wind waker, and 3d world). there are some parts in 3d world that require gamepad interaction, basically gimmick stuff like blowing into the microphone, and i just found myself disappointed that i had to do some switching back and forth for stupid stuff like that. the gamepad just feels like an expensive accessory rather than the centerpiece of the next gen for nintendo, at least for the few games i've played so far.
:thumbup: to everything. If only this was a launch game! Ugh... the wii u has no games and doesn't seem as innovative as originally planned/advertised. I'll always own everything/only Nintendo, but at this point with the wii u, I'm only looking for first party releases. Few and far between... Most of my four days off consisted of drinking, football and the latest Mario/Zelda releases.
