Nintendo has confirmed that the WiiU's backwards compatability will not be expanded to the Gamecube. I guess to a degree it can be seen as expected, but I would've quite liked the ability to play GC games on WiiU.
In this case, I'll guess I'll keep my Wii in the same way I kept my GBA SP so I could play my GB and GBC games.
