It's basically a TV remote.

It's just a super tv guide/remote which the gp already does regardless, I don't know why I expected more I really shouldn't have. It's still pretty nice though, best part is being able to search shows and movies.

What were you guys expecting? It doesn't have a tuner built-in, It's just an add-on. Glorified remote/guide. I still find it pretty Cool.

This will work for me considering I just switched from Optimum to Verizon and I have no clue how the hell to operate my Verizon menu's.

You do not need a tuner built-in. Check Samsung Smart View (stream from Samsung TV to SG2, SG3 in HD). All this Nintendo "TV"ii looks like a scam (for me), they should call it TVGuide-ii ot TVGuido!

All it does is control your tv and cable box it really has nothing to do with the Wii U, you're not watching anything through the Wii U or GamePad.

On top of how otherwise useless it is, it's slow too. Well done, Nintendo.
