Nintendo has less flaws to talk about.

But Nintendo still has flaws...

True...
I still think Gamecube games on WiiWare is a clever move, I dunno if it would require a Wii update but anyway I like the idea because then I don't have to lose track of disks PLUS I can transfer games to SD cards if I run out of room.

Gamecube Games will take up a lot of memory, probably too much for the Wii...
hmm... $:-\$

Nintendo are Masters of compression, and most of the 1.2 (I think?) GB Disks were filled with about 70% dummy data anyway. xD

Smartest move since sliced bread.

Don't forget that the Wii U is supposed to be a LOT more powerful than the Wii, so I could see it being done. Also, dummy data

Well the Wii U has no Gamecube memory card slots, so if one were to play a gamecube game by disk on the Wii U...

Anyway, if this were to be true, how would anyone play games like Mario Party 7? Most of the games (or rather, some) need the mic in memory card slot two, so I'm not sure how this will work.

Mic? Use a USB Microphone?

That is a good idea, just that if that would work, Nintendo may have to change some data and dialogue.

hmm maybe... or they could just take out those parts of the game

... Never say that again.

What about Pokemon Colosseum? that required the damn GBA more than anything...

Simple, attach the Game Boy Advance to the Gamecube and get the broadband adapter and connect to Wi-Fi with the Gamecube and also connect the Wii U online to the internet and then eventually things'll happen and then GBA Pokemon is into the Gamecube game Wii U game.

They'll remove that feature from Colosseum, then.

And it was only to trade Pokemon. You could only use it after you beat the game, anyway.

What about Four Swords Multiplayer? they might be forced to remove that

Well, the WiiU does have an extra screen...
