Such a shame that the app is pretty much garbage. I mean, you can't even browse from the gamepad and the interface is a sloppy mess. I'll stick to the browser.
Who do you suppose was in charge of developing the app? Nintendo or Youtube? I'm trying to think of where else I saw a similar complaint about Youtube on a device. Oh, I think it was people complaining about how crappy the iOS version of the Youtube app is compared to simply just using the Safari browser on iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch. Maybe this isn't a coincidence.
