Can you extend the range of wii u gamepad?
There is no add-on to increase the range, and it is not recommended by Nintendo to do so. Nintendo President Satoru Iwata stated "if you place the Wii U console in something like a metal TV stand it may deflect the radio waves thus reducing its usable range."
