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.


Sorry didn't understand clearly this is precisely what I would like: Insert Xenoblade Chronicles in Wii-U, go to another room to play it on the pad.

Is that possible?

I have no idea of the range of the pad, but to play wii games even on it, you need a wiimote/nunchuck (or whatever scheme is used in Xenoblade, I used a classic controller pro).

...but you already have a "classic controller" with screen in your hands, this implementation seem crazy/dumb in my opinion. (searching on the net fast I only found this was not possibile at launch and people told about maybe a software update but in the end I didn't understand if/how it works now)

Thank you for the reply.

The very very last Wii U fw update added that. Idiotic? Absolutely. But I guess it's at least a step toward having it independent of other input methods. Who knows what Nintendo might bring next.
