I haven't played to many games on the Wii U, as I only have 4 games. So far my favorite game and it uses the gamepad really well is ZombiU.

What is your favorite game on the Wii U?

I didn't link ass creed tree as a game in and of itself, but it does have a great gamepad feature where you can put the entire HUD on the gamepad and your tv screen just has the game on and nothing else. It feels like a movie... I cannot wait to do this with watch dogs. Zombi U, Batman Arkham City do a great job of utilizing the gamepad as a visual scanner... Missed opportunity by capcom to do the same with the scanner in Resident Evil. I like Monster Hunter 3.. Having everything you need on the touch screen and removing the HUD so the tv is clean is awesome. And every game that supports off TV play gets a gold star for making my life more convenient.

Game that I enjoyed the most is ZombiU..makes use of the gamepad the best?...none, ZombiU make good use of the gamepad. Right now I don't see what the tablet gamepad offer beside realtime inventory *no pausing*, maps & scanning? ...atm Im not seeing any use of the gamepad that makes me go wow that's great.

What I do find annoying is cutscene on both the tv & gamepad, when Im playing on TV...only notice Capcom did it right by just having the custscene on TV (only) with RE: Revelations when choose to play TV+Gamepad/TV only (Wii U)

Best game I've got the most enjoyment out of is Nintendo Land. Best use of the gamepad would be the same game. My fear is that Nintendo is going to be the only developer that uses the gamepad in any significant way.

you can pretty much bank on that.

they put out the wii mote and the vast majority of 3rd party titles on the wii were just a waggle fest.. minus Red Steel 2/No More Heroes

It was Nintendo that showed us what the device can do with Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, and Skyward Sword... Kind of sad the only game that really took advantage of the new control scheme wasn't released until the end of 2011.

Hopefully Nintendo can justify the gamepad much quicker this time.

I really like NintendoLand and I really hope they add more attractions. I think that'd be a great way to advertise new games as well. Lke having a W101 attraction etc.

Also, If they added online multiplayer I think people could also enjoy the game more

If the 10 gamesI have, I admit I like Cod and Mario, over zombiu which is probably my fav game. I love being able to play the entire game in the ganepad, with mic and headphones. Zombiu is just great, but you can't play it like that.

My favorite game is Runner 2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien, but the best use of the gamepad is easily Zombi U.

I could, easily, spend the rest of the year playing NFSMWU or MH3U. Both have tremendous replay value and, for me, that is what makes them both great games. Now, for the best use of the Gamepad, I'll go with ZombiU, NintendoLand and Batman AC:AE. All make great use of the gamepad but ZombiU is the best of all three in that regard!
