It has a 6.2-inch touch screen, two analog sticks, a full set of face and shoulder buttons, a front camera, a microphone, motion sensors and an NFC reader for amiibo. Games use the screen in different ways. Super Mario 3D World can show the full game on the pad with Off-TV Play, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD keeps the map and items there, and Nintendo Land builds whole attractions around one player seeing things the others cannot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePairing a GamePad with your Wii U\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GamePad connects only to a Wii U console over its own wireless link, and it cannot play games by itself or work with any other system. A replacement pad has to be paired before use. With the Wii U and TV on, you press the SYNC button on the console, then press the SYNC button on the back of the GamePad with the stylus tip and enter the short symbol code shown on the TV. The GamePad works best in the same room as the console, since its wireless range suits a normal living room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat to look for in a used GamePad\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe parts of a GamePad that wear with use are the analog sticks, the shoulder buttons, the charging port and the battery, which is a replaceable pack behind the back cover. The screen also shows marks more easily than a regular controller. We cannot speak to battery run time on any pre-owned pad, and the stylus, charger or charging cradle is included only if the listing title says so. The GamePad charges with a Wii U GamePad AC adapter or a compatible cradle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- rgm:details --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-facts\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct facts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eHardware\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWii U GamePad\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePlatform\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWii U\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eController\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003ePlays\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWii U games, as the main controller and second screen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eConnections\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWii U GamePad needs a Wii U console to work and must be paired with it\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eScreen\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.2-inch touch screen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eCharging\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWii U GamePad AC adapter or charging cradle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-faq\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this item\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWill this GamePad work with my Wii U?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, once it is paired.

Wii U games use one GamePad at a time.

Many Wii U titles, such as Super Mario 3D World and Mario Kart 8, can show the whole picture on the GamePad so the TV is free, while others use the pad for maps, inventory or a second view of the action.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\u003cp class=\"rgm-shipping\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFree U.S. Shipping\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo minimum order.
