Miyamoto: People will come to depend on second screen
"I almost feel like, as people get more familiar with Wii U and these touchscreen interfaces, that there is going to come a point where they feel like 'I can't do everything I want to do if I don't have a second screen'." The trick, of course, is getting people familiar with Wii U, something Nintendo has yet to accomplish judging by hardware sales.
"I feel a device like Wii U, with its ability to continue to offer new features and that network connection and the connection to the TV and the interface, really makes it feel that it's more than just a game machine, but something that offers a lot of practical use and practical purpose in the living room," Miyamoto said.
Miyamoto reiterated plans to update the firmware to make it "a little more stable, a little bit more convenient to use from a system standpoint." He's also working on figuring out how to "convey the usefulness of Wii U" to potential owners through games. "For me as a game developer, obviously I look at Wii U from the perspective of what games I can bring to Wii U."

The device is a good idea. But the experience isn't there in terms of games, or the idea backed fired

BrigandYOLO i dont like the look of the wii u? i think it looks abit retro?
Style doesn't really matter,its all about what it brings to the consumer.
You'll find a lot of people won't buy something they don't like the look of.

RTEChieftainslaughtercell I look at the tv when I play video games... If you have to look at the controller you're a noob
You look at the TV when you play? Anyone that's half decent at video games can tell what's happening without even looking at the screen. Try playing whilst only looking at the controller, if you can't you suck.
Aren't you supposed to look at the TV when you play >_>
You can play without looking at the TV yeah, no.

BrigandEuler Not a fan of this idea. Overcomplicating it, just keep it to one screen.
Guessing there are still some flaws i guess.
Yes, there have been flaws with the Wii U since the launch.
