I don't have much access to the TV so the gamepad is ideal for me. I am struggling thought to find games which can be played without the TV and would love some recommendations, especially for non shoot 'em ups as I don't like those very much. I do have Super Mario for the U but that's it for the gamepad only games unfortunately.

I have an old TV, so the games look a lot better on the gamepad. My TV also doesn't have a "native mode" or whatever, so the image is cropped off on the tv. So, I use the gamepad whenever possible, and for the first time in 8 years I feel like I need to buy a new tv.

Same. So it's nice to use the screen sometimes.

About 50/50 for me. Blops2 I will always try and play on via the TV just so my old eyes can see what to shoot. Games like Mass Effect 3 and Scribblenauts I am fine to just use the Gamepad.

I try watching the tv whenever I can, because I didn't buy this to be a damn portable.

Sinse we only have one TV for gaming i have to share it with both of my brothers, so i mostly end up playing on the Gamepad. At night when going to bed i usually play on the Gamepad to, even i the TV is free.

Playing ZombiU on just the gamepad makes a big challenge

I end up using the Game Pad screen a lot since I use it when playing SaASRT. I can't say I prefer it to my TV, but it still works great.

Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed??? what is the lowercase a?

Why would anyone use the gamepad when you have access to a tv?

Because not all 13 year olds who occasionally like to place their Wii U on their desk have a TV in their room!

I definitely prefer the GamePad when on the Internet Browser. Scrolling on the TV makes me motion sick.

Why do people point to their wrists when asking for the time, but don't point to their crotch when they ask where the bathroom is?

I played all of AC3 on the gamepad. It took me 26 hours to beat the game, and it was all on the gamepad. I probably would use the TV but I have a 12 year old SDTV. No joke. It works with the Wii U if you have your old Wii av cables, but looks like crap. So I use the gamepad

I prefer using the TV since it looks much better than on the gamepad, but I use the gamepad when I can't use the TV

I sometimes use it for NSMBU and Sonic Racing Transformed, but mainly I just use the TV screen.

How do you use it for Sonic Racing? I tried last night but I could not find a option to switch the screen to the gamepad.

You swipe down on the screen. Pretty obscure, huh?

I love playing on the screen. NSMBU, Metroid Blast, and Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed just play beautifully on that screen. It's completely legit, and I use it more than the TV screen now.

Metroid, Xenoblade, EarthBound shill

I run a YouTube/Twitch channel for fun. Check me out if you want to!

Please let me know before you send me a FC request, thanks.
