Isn't it great that Wii controllers are the motion controllers for Wii U?

I suppose that's once way of looking at it. There might actually be another controller made for the console, and the Wii remotes are also compatable.

Can you put the game discs inside the new controller? How does it work when you are playing a game, and then someone wants to watch TV, and so you just move your game over to your Wii U controller? How does that work?

Also I don't think the console is compatable with gamecube games.
