Two days ago I posed the question, how will it become feasible for Nintendo to keep the price down by offering up-to-four touchscreen controllers at a guesstimated $100+ a piece for the new Wii U? Well, it appears the answer is simple - only one controller.
While they haven't "officially" said that, their press release is pretty telling. It discusses "a" controller and none of the demos at E3 feature multiple controllers. So, I guess I was right that the controllers are too damn expensive for multiplayer.
I guess Super Mario Kart, Mario Party, and other multiplayers will take on a whole new level of competition as brother beats on brother to get the cool touchscreen controller. It will be anarchy in households across the world. It is a sad day to be the youngest in a household of four children as that child will be forced to use the old, generic battery fueled, Wiimote that came with the original Wii purchased in 2006.
