I hope Nintendo and 3rd party devs come up with more than a chat pad or a map. A big map can be achieved on the other consoles by pressing the start/select button, Which would take the same amount of time as looking down at the controller. Chat will be OK for typing messages but for in game you will ideally want to use the microphone which it has. I am more interested in the use of the cameras allowing you to look around corners or using like the xray vision in batman by holding the controller up to the screen. The touch screen could certainly help with inventory though. I thought devs did a poor job with the wii mote for the most part including Nintendo, it was only a handful of games and the pointer in FPS games that really made decent use of the wiimote, so it will be interesting to see if they do a better job this time.
Dont think so nintendo 64 was the last hardcore gaming nintendo console it wasnt untill nintendo created pokemon at end of n64 lifespan they nintendo turned casual. nintendo started going casual all out once they created pokemon.
september 9th 1999 is when nintendo64 died and all the hardcore gamers moved to sega dreamcast. nintendo no longer had the most powerful console so they just turned n64 into a casual gamer's console, after dreamcast launched. And there's the last time nintendo was relevant.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlglPJWNaUs I seen killer instinct in the arcade's in 1994, watch at 41 seconds they said avalible for your home in 1995 only for ULTRA64. ultra64 was n64's original name, I MISS REAL NINTENDO. Doesnt matter if rare made these game's nintendo was supporting them giving them money to make these hardcore games :(

big difference between nintendo and microsoft owning rare. nintendo funded rare to create alot of hardcore games for n64. microsoft will not fund rare to create hardcore game's for xbox360.
It would be cool to use the Wii U controller as a Pip Boy now that I think about it. Don't know if it will "make games easier to play", but it would help games feel more immersive.
Dude when u think about it, nintendo bought rare to create hardcore game's for it's console. conker banjo killer instinct 007 goldeneye perfect dark blast corps diddy kong racing donkey kong 64. game's rare created for original xbox conker grabbed by the ghoulies game's rare created for xbox360 kameo perfect dark zero banjo LOL YEA MICROSOFT'S REALLY BEEN FUNDING RARE TO CREATE HARDCORE GAMES LIKE NINTENDO ONCE DID.
I feel once the PS4 and Nextbox release with superior specs, the third party devs will switch their focus leaving the Wii U with the scraps, much like the Wii but to a lesser extent.
I won't be buying one for a long time, that's for sure.

True that. WiiU is saving Nintendo's ass because they can't develop a new gimmick console yet to release and compete with the superior Nextbox and PS4.
