Nintendo World Report have uploaded an exclusive clip of the Netflix app on Nintendo Wii U. What surprises me the most is the ability to use the Wii U Game Pad (gPad). I'm not very good at words, but this is truly extraordinary. Just one single finger on the touchscreen. You can even switch it from TV to the gPad in case someone wants to watch regular programming while you're watching a film. Let us know what you think.

All this is how i assumed it would be, my only issue not with netflix but the game pad (and call me nit-picky) but i think id rather prefer my headphone jack on the bottom of the game pad opposed to the top

In the privacy of your own bedroom, I think it would be a good idea having the headphone jack on the bottom. If it's on the top, the cord would distract the view.

That is what I'm planning to use it for. Since we don't get NetFlix here in Australia I'm going to use it for YouTube and Hulu Plus.

The Netflix app looks pretty Good and the video is good on the TV and the Game pad but do you really think the Game pad range can reach to your bedroom because didn't Nintendo say the range was limited or something like that. But don't get me wrong if your able to do this it would be awesome this also brings to mind is it possible to play your Game in your room while someone watches TV in the living room or do think the Game pads range is to short for that?

As long as it's within the room range of your home, sure... there's a great possibility for that.
