2 gamepads, 1 console?

[Th3L3g3nd12]

Is it possible to have 2 different gamepads connected to one console? Not to use simultaneously as I know Nintendo didn’t release that (I know the files are there and about Gary’s new ambitious HB of it). I mean just to have 2 gamepads and use whichever at whatever time. I want to get the Zelda gamepad someday and I currently also have a working one.

You can sync two gamepad at once but you can only use one gamepad at once, the wii u would see the second gamepad as a simple controller.

You can use both gamepads, but one at time. I mean you only can have one gamepad conected to the console. If you wanna use the other you have to pair again, and the other gamepad gona disconnect (unpair) automatically.

Not true. You can sync only one gamepad at once.

If you remember, Nintendo removed the "two gamepads" feature.
I can confirm that you can sync only one gamepad at once because I have two gamepads and I tested.

I remember reading about that.

Nintendo didn't help Wii U's popularity.

Man, Nintendo is like really stupid. Can't a person use the second pad as a classic controller, with the screen off...
