I doubt someone with a next gen console wants to borrow that (I wouldn't do that!) I have two or more friends with Wii and I think they are not using it that much, I'll see.
On a side note: the wii production end and the fact that wii u is 100% backwards compatible means I might be in the target audience of Wii-U, lol, didn't thought about that af first. (I'm such a fanboy sometimes! LOL) XD

Does Wii games work on Wii-U controller  screen? That would be good for non hd games to be played on a "portable" at bed.

Yes... but since you need the original Wii controllers, it's anything but portable.
