While the controller has an external mic, you won't be able to use it to voice chat. Nintendo confirmed that voice chatting will have to be done through third party microphones.

I as well had a chance to play the Wii U at Gamestop and yea, Rayman looked great, but it was the worst game they could have used to demo the system. They really needed to demo the system with a game that takes full advantage of everything the system does and can do, especially the Gamepad.

Plus, Rayman isn't exactly the kinda game that's gonna blow you away graphics wise, and since Nintendo is trying to rebound from their less then powerful Wii, you'd think they'd demo the console with a game that would simply amaze people with it's graphics and what it can do.

That being said, the Gamepad felt comfortable, even though it's big, it feels great. I have to complain about the distance between the bumper buttons and triggers, when it comes to FPS games, the distance between these buttons is important. I also felt the placement of the right stick wasn't good, but that's most likely due to my constant use of the Xbox 360 controller.

I still don't see a reason to run out and grab a Wii U, but I'll probably get one next year after they get some really good momentum going with games.
