Wii U Circle Pads?

I really hope that they change them to analogue and make two of the shoulder buttons pressure sensitive.

More like the 3DS, but taller becuase it doesn't have to fold flat. I rather like the 3DS slide pad, although I would have rather had them do a real analog stick... honestly, I'm more concerned about the lack of analog sholder buttons. I mean, didn't Nintendo do them first on the gamecube controller? But I guess since it only supports one pad (maybe two) people are going to end up defaulting to the CCPro for multiplayer, and that doesn't have analog shoulder buttons either.

Honestly, if it only works with one pad in the end, I would rather have them add analog shoulder buttons to the pad and release a new regular controller with two sticks, d-pad, 4 shoulder buttons (2 bumpers, 2 analog triggers), and the four main face buttons plus all the menu stuff (sans touch screen) rather than just using the Wii CC.

Something tells me the WiiUablet design is not final yet. No one said that it wasnt final, but something tells me it isnt. But really, lets not complain quite yet. The Gamespot and Ign editors who got a chance to get their hands on the WiiUablet controller have said that it is very comfirtable and light. They didnt even complain... yet alone talk about the circle pads.

I really hope that they change them to analogue and make two of the shoulder buttons pressure sensitive.

This, though it sort of looked like two of the shoulders were pressure sensitive to me. I have no idea why they'd make it analog pads instead of analog sticks

Agreed. This would make porting games easier.

Analog shoulder buttons are pressure sensitive, though I'm not sure if the GC's shoulder buttons were pressure sensitive. They could be used, for example, in a racing/driving game to speed up your vehicle the harder/farther down you push the trigger. Or, in a fps you could increase your fire-rate the farther down you push (although very unrealistic :P )

They were, yes. GCN triggers also had a unique feature where after you pulled them back you with feel a some resistance, then you pull further and you'll hear a button click.

In practice analog trigger are rarely taken advantage of. Sure you have racing games, but even then you can often use the right analog stick as well.

... Gamecube was the first to use them... Since they were so widely enjoyed on the Gamecube....guitarist4292

Ah you're right. Sorry I don't play on a PS3 very often. :P
I always play at a friends place, but never played a racing game before on the DS3.
Usually we play CoD zombie-mode or LBP.
