After receiving a Wii U Deluxe Set, which includes a black console and Wii U GamePad, Ars Technica found out that there’s a mystery connector at the bottom of the new controller. Although the user’s manual says the connector is for controller accessories, there haven’t been any revealed yet.
In addition to a slot for the charger and a standard headphone jack at the top, the bottom of the tablet GamePad has a mysterious connector at the bottom. The user’s manual says this connector is for “controller accessories,” but none have yet been announced. The connector is a thinner than the Wii Remote connector that was used for things like the Nunchuk and Classic Controller. Karaoke launch game We Sing doesn’t use it either—the microphone that comes with that game plugs into the USB slots on the base system. Curious…
PRIMERO RAZAAAA WUUUU
And you think people won’t guess what you meant? Prepare your butt…
It means “first poeple”. =D
butt! you penis take my out until Not your
You are not first until i remove my penis from your butt.
That’s weird. I wonder myself…
thats where wii u zapper will go.
THE TRANSFER PACK IS BACK! xD
It would be nice to have a like button
lol I literally laugh out loud….when I read some of these comments…. so yes I agree.. xD
Was thinking the same thing
CIRCLE PAD PRO WIIU XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXL
Honestly, can’t tell if really stupid attempt at trolling or just really stupid.
I know it’s hard for you to understand this, but not everyone is trolling. There are things called jokes, and this appears to be one of them.
I think it’s a microphone tbh.
hahahahahahahaha
That’s for aleous to put his little pee pee in, it looks like It’s his size, maybe a lil bit too big for him but atleast Nintendo thought about him, have fun ….
Wii U Zapper guys…
Or the Wii U printer.
lol that would be great.
Not unless the zapper is electronic.
Good lord, we’ve known this since last E3.
This has been told by Nintendo at E3 in that guide tour video about WiiU
Vitality sensor!
The slot is for casual mum to stick “its” penis into.
Its for accessories and the gamepad charging cradle.
Now that is a million dollar mystery…
it for accessories most probably for stuff like the gun attachment and other things also know as accessories
Well, we already know that it’s for the charging cradle that comes with the Pro Pack but I imagine it will be used for the inevitable Zapper some day.
I think the cradle only uses the yellow parts, but I’m not sure…
It also uses the grey plastic slots at the side to keep it in place.
Is this related to mysterious action figure?
Non-specific*?
It’s to put rolled up banknotes in, to send directly to nintendo.
Everyone forgot the shooting gun they showed in last years E3 when the WiiU was announced?
I bet it will be used for that, and maybe they bring back donkey conga and you plug that into the controller so you can play it with and without tv screen? I’m just guessing but i think it will be used for somethiing laike that.
It’s a VAGINA!! I can stick my penis in it!
I think you should see a doctor about that.
Maybe YOU can fit
well of course there’d be an extension slot.. nintendo would be silly not to include it.. you never know what the future may bring accessory wise

^ Amazing…Simply….Amazing!
Its’ zapper
It is obviously for the Wii U Zapper. Look it up on Google and you will see how it works. The Wii U sits ontop of the gun like a “scope.” You can totally tell that the “mysterious plug” at the bottom plugs into the top of the accessory.
Old news is old
what if that connector is for 3ds to tv that allows us to play ds/3ds games on the gamepad and tv.
God, I hope so!
That would be much easier to run by just wirelessly connecting the 3DS and Wii U and have the 3DS transfer the image over. There’s no need for any extra physical components.
And Nintendo would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for you meddling kids.
:D^^^
ha ha xD
My goat will inseminate and make GOATU’S! theye will be evil and I shall sex them to death.
inb4 the retrun of transfer paks and pokemon mystery gifting.
Definitely stuff like Zapper support. MAYBE Nintendo will bring that Vitality Sensor thing back up lol?
Hm, only time will tell
It’ll be there just for future possibilities, be peripherals or whatever.
“tablet gamepad” why not just gamepad?
Sometimes I feel like they put these ports in and never use them. There’s a “mystery port” under a second door on the PS Vita too. I can’t wait to see what they use it for, if they use it.
hi there yeah its for head sets for online multi-player
Isn’t that connector for the controller to connect into the kiosks?
At e3 they had a “mystery port to HDMI” cable connecting it to the TV so the people in line can see what was happening on the GamePad… How awesome would it be if they released that for consumers?
More like hugely impractical…
its for the wii u zapper and other accessories.
To bring some light into this topic:
I say the port is for the cradle/accessory and the holes next to the connector are there to keep the gamepad in place. It’s just like the two holes on the wiimote for the wm+ add-on.
It’s for the…*cue dramatic music*…Vitality Sensor!
Those are just extra holes so that peripherals can hold the Gamepad better.
what if it’s a ds player add on like the gameboy player for the gamecube or the super gameboy for the snes
i JUST hACKS my three dee sss too plays three dee pornos. wuuuuuuuhahahaahaha
who thaaa manss nowwws doggs!!!!!!!!
connectivity is for 3DS

You heard it here first. I’m guessing we’re going to the likes of a keyboard or something for the remote for playing music. Maybe some sort of 3ds connectivity
ojala sea para poder gravar videos a traves de la capturadora jejeje
This is hardly news … it’s used for charging when docked on the charging cradle, ars technica lives under a rock ?
Quite sure it’s also a multi-purpose external extension connector.
Vitality Sensor is BACK! LoL
The Vitality Sensor is BACK! LoL
Reblogged this on Gigable – Tech Blog.
its connector for personal 3d video glasses with motion detector… (will cost a lot $).

Is there a way to control the volume of background music on tv?
Does anyone have a link to Hero by skillet in midi or sheet music form, for free?
