I like the Gamepad concept but it seems rare to see anyone take advantage of it. Which is the general habit for all Nintendo's gimmicks, really. On the other hand they sure do love shoehorning horrible Kinect voice commands and gestures into Xbox games, so I guess the alternative isn't much better.

The gamepad is nice (I've basically played Hyrule Warriors entirely on it) but I wouldn't cry if it didn't exist or anything and wouldn't buy it on its own.

Some games take great advantage of it and game's where it wouldn't have any place leave it out. Do you want it shoehorned into everything?

My living room is next to my bedroom and gently caress if it isn't awesome to be able to play Wii U in bed on Sunday morning.

Once I get a Wii U my idiot brother can play his Forza and Battlefield or whatever the gently caress on the Xboner while I chill out with my clearly superior anime Zelda game which is way cooler and totally not lame in the same room because I can play it on the gamepad so gamepad rules.

The thing about the gamepad is, unlike the wiimote if you don't use the gimmick it's still a perfectly fine, comfortable controller that serves the exact purpose a normal controller would.

CrashCat posted:But then what's the point? I have to buy the world's most expensive controller to play on the least expensive, least powerful new console, and then it's not even really that useful? Why can't I buy a Wii U for $150 and jam with my old remotes and maybe pick up a pro pad eventually? because shigurosan wants you to blow on something to progress in mario

The blowing thing is almost worth it for when we got to that part in 3D World and my girlfriend was like "What the gently caress are you doing" in a disgusted tone.

Or the waggle one where I turned it off in disgust literally seconds after leaving the first house?

Phantom Hourglass sounds cool. Not the game, just the title. It sounds like an album my band would put out (I play bass)

If you are a left handed mutant like me, Phantom Hourglass was near unplayable.

Phantom Hourglass got mostly 9s from vidcon journals which makes me think a lot of... ahem... "rupees" changed hands

Didn't buy spirit tracks because I disliked the Phantom Hourglass so much. I beat it, but it was definitely not "awesome"

a Loving Dog posted:Furthermore, Well, I could point out you're comparing the peak results of the Dreamcasts established hardware versus the new hardware of the Ps2, but I was talking more in terms of gameplay. The Ps2 was when games made the true transition from an attempted emulation of the console experience to a more fully realised idea of console games as an experience meant not just to amuse, but to really sink ones teeth into. Lets compare the way the two consoles approached puzzle games. The Dreamcast gives us Chu Chu Rocket - colourful, simple, cartoony. Gaming equivalent of candy. The Ps2 gives us Ico. Artistic, hauntingly beautiful, impactful in the way no game before it could have been. Gamings ambrosia.
