I guess it depends on what I want to look at. Sometimes I might want to look at the big screen or vice versa.

Thats where Asymmetric Gameplay comes in.

Hopefully Wii games can be played with the Wii U Pro Controller because if 3G doesn't get localised then I'll likely pick up Tri.

you can use the controller as a screen, instead of the TV? it's good to a certain extent but why would you want to do that, its too small. i want to be able to play games on the gamepad only and use it as the controller at the same time
i understand it would be difficult for games that originally had a wiimote and nunchuck to play, but what about games that used the classic controller? those games would be able to be played on the controller, as a screen and controller at the same time.

but the whole console is needed to play the games?. so you'd have to plug in the wiiu. Which could be awkward, Although if your somewhere were someone is using the TV it could be used. Although I still want a gamepad only function.

There are electrical outlet converters for the car. So you could plug the Wii U there. They cost 20-30$

I'm not sure the Wii U isn't out yet but I'll take an educated guess. You plug in an Ipad it drains a bit less than a laptop. The Wii U has power around a laptop so it can't be that much.

OOPS silly me. We need the console... But anyway I have an electrical adapter so I can plug it .

I would plug in a Wii U to my families car but last road trip the car started doing some wierd things and we don't know if it was because we plugged so many things into the car.
