Sounds like it lost sync. Did you try and re-sync?

I guess somehow you pressed the tiny red button? Try pressing that again.

I tried that but it said the GamePad was all ready synced. How do I unsync?

hmm.. not sure how to unsync.. perhaps take off battery cover, unplug battery and plug back in?

Sync up a pro controller, hit the home button, controller options, and try resynch from there, otherwise, holding the red button on both the console and the controller should do the trick.

To unsync all controllers you have to hold the sync button on Wii u for 30 seconds with it powered on

Oh, yes lol. I did try that when the problem first happened. I've just been living with it for a while until I started to try to fix it. And then my ideas didn't work.
I'm home now again, so once my roomie stops watching tv I'll try these ideas.
And thanks guys!
