Do you guys believe in backward compatibility?

My Wii U needs tech assistance, but i am not in a hurry right now. Since i am almost sure to buy NX in launch anyway, was thinking of not fixing it right now.

I expect it to be BC with digital versions of legacy titles, but will require proper ports for Wii U games. Such titles may or may not be crossbuy or discounted if you owned them before.

If they do the legacy bc they will probably handle it like they did with the Wii legacy software for the Wii U, $20 a title. Though they may offer the titles at a discount since the new My Nintendo service knows what you bought digitally, they use it currently to replace the software on the 3DS if direct transfer is impossible.
