Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter has told IGN that Nintendo's new console can support more than one controller. He states that he got the information direct from Reggie Fils-Aime, President of Nintendo of America.
"They were particularly unclear about whether the console would support more than one of their tablet-like controllers; Mr. Miyamoto said no, but Reggie said yes (to me in a meeting)," said Pachter. "Obviously, they intend to ship the console with only one of these controllers, so it is unlikely that anyone will develop games that require two, but they were not clear whether the capability exists."
A few days ago, IGN reported that Nintendo's Wii U would likely support a single controller, with Miyamoto saying that the "basic premise is that you can use one with a system".
However, he did say that they were "doing research about if someone brings their controller to their friend's house and they want to play together on Wii U to whether or not something like that would be possible."
