So, the Wii U run's the Wii in a virtual environment, meaning it's sandboxed and not at all connected with the Wii U..... because of this, old Wii modding techniques are already being used on the Wii U while it is in Wii mode. This is similiar to how DS hack cards work in a 3DS, but only using the DS capabilities. Not everything is working (yet) but who knows what this will lead to. Video in follow up post, because I'm not sure how to post it in the opening.
