I have a few games I downloaded on my Wii that I will transfer over to my Wii U once I finally get one, will I be able to play these games on the tablet itself or will I have to stick to a Wii controller and TV screen? Sorry if this has already been spoke about.

No upad use. only tv in wii mode, which is completely locked off from the wii u stuff.
it even reboots the console into wii mode.
To get back to wii u menu there's a new channel.

Unfortunately WIi VC games have not yet been developed for use on the gamepad. You would have to use classic controller/wiimote

Not at the moment, didn't Nintendo say yesterday that it might be possible in the future?

In the Japanese presentation, Iwata said they're going to make it possible to play virtual console games on just the Gamepad - which makes me excruciatingly happy, almost as happy as when I heard there was a Gameboy Player coming out that'd let me play Wario Land 3 on the big screen. <3

If VC games come on the Wii U, wouldn't THOSE games be gamepad compatible, or was he speaking generally about all VC games?
