One of the things I find disappointing about the Wii U is the use of a resistive touchscreen (like on the DS), compared to a capacitive touchscreen (like on the iPad). I understand that resistive touchscreens are more durable and less costly, but they just don't feel very good at such a large size and are severely prone to scratches.
I also heard there were software problems, but those can be easily fixed given time. The touchscreen, however, is a positively antiquated design choice. Nevertheless, I'm sure Nintendo will churn out triple-A first party titles and all will be good.

The title I'm waiting for is Smash Bros. And the Wii U is totally worth it. You get what you pay for. You can't really ask for something that's set to be better than the 360 and PS3 to be cheap.....

OK, I have this beast for two days now and while the contrast UPDATES are annoying, it's tons of fun. I just wish that not everything needed the Wii U Pad.
I really don't want to use it unless I really have to, since I suck at keeping things dust free. |

I've had one for a bit, and I'm really enjoying it.
Galvantula - So far, the only thing that "needs" to have the gamepad in hand for is checking friends stuff on the MiiVerse. Gaming-wise the only game I've played so far that you need the gamepad for is the 10 minutes of Nintendoland I tried before shelving it forever. If anyone wants to add me, my tag is tjduckett.

I'm chalking up the problems in the same vein as PS3 overheats and 360 Red ringing during their early days. You hear horror stories over them, but they're actually rarities when it comes to occurrence.
