Guess the tablet wasn't worth it, not this early too many drawbacks.
Tablets aren't constantly receiving video streaming from another device though. How much time does it take for an iPad to run out of battery streaming Netflix?
For comparison, Ipad3 gets ~5.75 hours at medium brightness playing games.
No excuse for this. It doesn't even have a processor in it wtf.
Battery tech going backwards.
I was thinking it was to keep the price of the thing down.I'm sure they've saved on battery size to minimize weight. I'm satisfied.
I'll just plug it in when the battery warning sounds, to keep playing indefinitely.

But then again, the WiiU gamepad doesn't have a crazy power-hungry A5X processor and a 10 inch 2048 x 1536 display. 3 hours is beyond pathetic.
80% of the ipads innards is battery. streaming video and running a screen eats battery like mad and with nintendos cost cutting its probably only using a single 3ds battery in it.
LOL at you guys who play a system for over 5 hours per sitting without charging. This is only a problem for a handheld. How can you care about this news.
Because you're meant to be able to take the gamepad anywhere and continue with the game you were playing. Not-so-portable now.Why is this a big deal? You don't take it out of the room.
Just charge it when your done.
I dunno, it could still be really demanding on power for streaming at a very high quality with little to no lag.It's hardly as battery consuming as rendering the graphics.
People really play for much longer without breaks? Just set it to charge every time you stop playing and it'll probably be good outside the very occasional long session.
Hopefully Nintendo does a SKU with this bad boy instead of the pad

I have to admit, a fast charge would alleviate this a lot. Who cares if it's only 3-5 hours of playtime if 1 hour could fully charge, or at least get it MOSTLY charged with an extra half hour for the very last step or whatever?Looks like you get a 1:1 to 1:2 charge time to play time, so if you take a 5 minute break you're going to get at most an extra 10 minutes of battery.
