Since Sakurai was using a Wii U pro controller during the E3 demo, what do you think the gamepad will be used for during gameplay?
I personally hope it will be used in numerous ways.
Score screen so you can see your K.O.s, falls, total damage, etc. during the actual game.
Camera/Recording option where the gamepad player has free range to take pictures, pause, record and send to Miiverse when the match is going on, but not disrupt it. The gamepad has a separate stream of the match where they can rewind, pause to take pictures and then fast forward again to catch up.
This would be great to include the more artistic players who want to capture a perfect shot without having to pause the actual gameplay. And a simple way to record your matches.
God Mode. The gamepad player has complete control over the settings of the game during actual gameplay. They can trigger stage events (like changing the playing field in Pokemon Stadium) and spawn items to reward players.
Another cool idea would be to have 4 vs gamepad player and they have to control a boss character trying to beat them
