"We've known the Wii U can support the simultaneous usage of two WiiPads for as long as we've known that no launch titles will support such madness. Japanese Wii U owners will eventually be able to purchase extra WiiPads for &amp;yen;13,440 ($173), while Americans have not been given a price or separate release date yet.\"Through the launch window, there are no games that leverage a second controller,\" Nintendo of America CEO Reggie Fils-Aime told Engadget. \"And so, during the launch window here in NOA territories, we will not be selling at retail a second gamepad. But certainly, when the games come out, we'll be making that accessory available.\"We suppose that wanting to future-proof your living room against the inevitable games that will support two WiiPads could be a valid reason for buying one right now, but a more likely scenario is one involving children, permanent markers and that stylus-driven touchscreen. Anyone looking to replace a damaged or otherwise undesirable WiiPad will need to contact Nintendo customer support when the times comes."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
