how many gamepad controllers needed for wii u?

At this time only one gamepad is supported. Wii remotes can be used for additional players. Watch out for unscrupulous sellers like Sadpolar7 selling the "Deluxe Set" without the gamepad. The system needs the gamepad to work. SCAM!

Yes you would need to buy the wiiu and I advise to purchase two motion plus controllers.............

It depends on how you set up the controller. This device supports Xinput, which is equivalent to Xbox 360 drivers, and Dinput, which are standard controller drivers. In Xinput mode, only one controller can be connected to an adapter. On Dinput, up to four Wii U Pro Controllers can be connected simultaneously to one adapter.If your PC game requires Xbox 360 controllers, you need an adapter for each Wii U Pro controller, but I think most games don't care about the type of controller.

Sorry, I dont know about using it with the WII U as i dont have a WII U. But I have the balance board and hand controllers. I have been using this FOR YEARS and I still enjoy it a lot! Would love to see some squells to it. Like walk in different cities or countries.

You can use regular Wii controllers or the Wiiu pad that comes with the Wiiu

No, for that, you need a Classic Controller or Classic Controller Pro. Or better yet, a Gamecube Controller Adapter for Wii Remote.

Only one battery is needed for each wiimote control. So, two batteries = two controllers.

An "Android-native" Gamepad should work, either plugged to USB or connected by Bluetooth -- but not all games support Gamepad input. I rooted my UG007B & use "Six-Axis" app to connect a PS3 controller via Bluetooth -- works well with most emulators (if they support hardware controllers)

The Wii U Pro controller is only designed for Wii U games. Wii games on Wii U can only be played with controllers that were supported by the regular Wii, such as the regular Wiimote, wiimote+nunchuck, or the Classic Controller Pro. The Wii U also does not have slots for a gamecube controller so those can't be used as well. You'll need a wiimote, the good news is that a lot of Wii U games actually support this older controller and it can be used to navigate Wii U menus so it wouldn't be a bad purchase Nintendo Wii Remote Plus - Black

Yes. Go to http://www.logitech.com/en-us/support/gamepad-f310?crid=411&osid;=14&bit;=64 for the controller, click downloads in blue, and underneath the controller image you will be able to choose windows 8 (32 or 64 bit) for the drivers. I'm sure they are on the cd provided too. If not, you can just get them off the site.

I do not know. As I have a same gamepad long ago (which I bought with $4), the driver has already been installed to my PC. So I can use this one directly without installing the driver.

You can connect until 4 Wii U Pro controller in "standar mode" and only one in "xbox mode"

The classic controller should work with all downloaded 64 games. However, if you have a Wii that has Gamecube controller ports, you are much better off getting a Gamecube controller to use.

You can literally use any controller: the old Wii controllers work as well as the standard one that comes with the Wii U. I prefer the Wii U wireless controllers they made for the system

you still need a second remote because in some games you are pitted against each other. also i dont think it can be played on the original wii because it requires the little game pad that is with the wii u

In fact, Wii U Gamepad is not too important int this game, 1 to 4 players can play wii party u and sometimes when it is a 3 vs 1 player mini game you use the Gamepad and another "asimetrical party mode games", so all players do need wii remote (dont have to be plus) to play this game. it really is a great game you and your friends will have fun GARANTEED! :)

Not necessarily. I didn't buy a pro controller til later down the road. And its mainly for guest when they want to play with me. Other than that, I use my gamepad for everything.
