The Wii U CPU and Wii CPU are based on the same tech. Like every new generation intel pc cpus are based on the same tech. But the Wii U CPU is much more powerful, before you can emulate this on a pc with proper speed we will have christmas 2024.

That some people even think a proper Wii U or even a XBox360 emulation would be possible in a near future is hilarious. Even modern games like Assassins Creed 3 don't run exceptionally better on PC than on XBox360. And people really think a emulation would be possible? The Wii U even has much more power than the XBox360.

Since WiiU is barely superior to PS360, mid-range PCs are way better already (similar to the Wii launch). NSMBU will be the first fully playable game with 60FPS and could already be achieved now since it's barely more advanced technologically than NSMBWii.

Of course the devs would need time to make a somewhat stable emulator first with proper plug-in support and so on, so it could take 2 years for them to do it.
