Pachter: Reggie said Wii U can use two controllers

This information comes from Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter…
“They were particularly unclear about whether the console would support more than one of their tablet-like controllers; Mr. Miyamoto said no, but Reggie said yes (to me in a meeting), Obviously, they intend to ship the console with only one of these controllers, so it is unlikely that anyone will develop games that require two, but they were not clear whether the capability exists.”
In the end, I have a feeling the Wii U will use at least two controllers. Anything beyond that is probably a stretch due to how much it’ll cost. I personally do most of my multiplayer gaming with two controllers anyway, so I’d be fine with just two Wii U controllers. Also remember that numerous Wiimotes can be used as well!
