Chris Buffa (Modojo): Nintendo doesn't want the media or the company's fans referring to the Wii U gamepad as a tablet, but the comparisons are not only inevitable, but also impossible to ignore. A wireless device that plays movies and games, while offering Internet access away from a desktop? Sure, it has tangible buttons, analog sticks and what not, but the controller serves similar functions as the iPad and Nexus 7.
TNS - NCSoft CEO admitted that AI is rapidly becoming a core part of game development, but he added that it cannot replace what makes games fun.
To be fair, there are also human made games that release and lack any fun at all either.
Guild Wars 2 been playing for 14yrs, 1st beta. This is just one company I support, Arenanet and NCSoft, even though I torrent, there are a few PC companies I will buy from. "PlayStation’s Horizon MMO spin-off, Horizon Steel Frontiers." I feel this will be good, NCSoft is a good developer/publisher.
It’s a tool. Use it elevate things and get it done faster. I’m sorry but not every game made by humans is good. If this can help things, then I fully embrace it.

GOOD! Real control is more fun!!!
If you get too close to the word 'tablet' Apple will come out swinging with more lawsuits and nobody wants that.
The Upad will not play movies and games. It has no components inside to do so. It simply receive a video feed much like the Wiimote could receive audio feeds and save data. I guess that make the Wii mote a telephone. The GBA could play videos and games so I guess that makes it a tablet as well.
The only difference between this and a standard controller is that it has a touchscreen. You can't carry it with you, you can't do anything on it by itself. It is for all purposes, a game controller.
The Upad is no more a tablet than the DS, DSi, 3DS and Vita. I mean heck, the core design itself is just the bottom half of the DS with the TV being used as the top screen.
