Pro Controller support is coming...
http://disneyinteractivestudios.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4126I didn't see what all the fuss was about with people complaining about the lack of pro controller support initially, but after playing the game last night for a while I completely understand the desire.
Gamepad support is awesome but the only really big advantage in my book is for Off-Screen play. Other than that I would like to stick to a pro controller. The battery lasts WAY longer which is more conducive to long Toy Box building sessions and I think it would be less confusing for younger kids.
As much as I love the Wii U and Disney Infinity it feels like all the support for the Wii U's unique features were an afterthought and it doesn't really add anything worthwhile to the overall game.
