My point being that if hackers (who are backfiguring everything) can add those kinds of features that nintendo neglected to on the old hardware, the only reason Nintendo didn't add the desired WiiU features is because they didn't want to.

Hackers will always try to hack, but leaving out no brainer features like wii software on the handheld screen just pushes them even harder.

Right.  They didn't want to.  Like how they don't have plans for a Wii U VC at all, right? 

I mean I'll just take your word for it and believe Nintendo didn't want to add GamePad functionality for Virtual Console games.  You know, despite Iwata saying they wanted to do that but couldn't (because of the sandbox system) and that they have a Wii U VC already in the works which wouldn't be limited to the Wii's sandbox system.

Look at what you just said regarding the Wii itself.  They still having figured out how to get Wii remotes to work on GC games yet and it's been out for 6 years.   Do you honestly believe that with a vastly increased security system that they'll enable GamePad usage before Nintendo initiates their Wii U VC?
