Right. Urm, I'm going have to vigorously disagree here. (As if I ever stop doing that...)
Nintendoland did a much better job of showing the boons of asymmetric gameplay and the gamepad. Yes, metroid and zelda controlled better with the wiimote, but there are always going to be games that work better with motion control than what the gamepad relying on analogue sticks can offer.
Also got a lot of use out of Boost mode (One player places blocks on the gamepad) on NSMBU with my little sister who isn't as good at mario as I am, but it still let her join in without having to worry about that.
And the rayman legends challenge app that is up right now is ungodly fun. The murphys cave challenge modes seem to be a hit with everyone I've talked to too (It's the Wii U exclusive mode. Could possibly be on vita if the rumours about a vita version are true, absolutely needs a touch screen though)
