Wii U controller gets demoed
Nintendo’s released a video which gives you a detailed demo of the Wii U’s unique new touchscreen controller.
The video takes you through three playable Wii U demos – Chase Mii, Battle Mii and Shield Pose. It explains in detail about how you can get around to playing them with your shiny new Wii U controller.
The video also has other folks playing alongside the person who is using the Wii U controller, but they are seen using the regular WiiMote. This is because the Wii U currently only supports one touchscreen controller per console. Watch the interesting looking demo after the break.

Might’ve been interesting if the thing was more capable of more than 1 controller. Limiting it to only 1 is just stupid and makes no sense considering how much effort they’re putting in advertising the controller.

lol….
this is basically a stupid version of Wii sports.
this is to showcase how the controller can be used and its functionalities.
i’m interested in how this can be used on real games, games like Ninja Gaiden 3:)

It’s just… Retarded.
