No, you can not redownload them... why? Because your original Wii-U will have died by that point and your games are tied TO THE SYSTEM. Also, and believe me, I've given this alot of thought, "redownloading" only works when the parent company is still hosting the data for you to download. So if Nintendo isn't in the business of keeping 20 year old games on some server for Wii-U owners in the year 2034? How are you gonna get that download? You're not going to be able to do that.

My original Wii U will likely be absolutely fine. My NES and original GameBoy are both in perfect working condition, and both are close to 30 years old. Same goes for every other piece of Nintendo hardware I own (and I own basically all of them), so yeah, I have no worries about that. The fact that your games are tied to the system will be handled in time, Nintendo have been working towards that for a while now, so that's a non-factor too. Once that happens, and they fully adopt an iOS/Android-like environment (as they will, Iwata has stated so literally) there's no reason they wouldn't keep  their (old) games available for basically eternity. Your orinal discs are more likely to have become scratched and/or lost by 2034, so yeah.
