I bought a Wii U a few months ago. I set it up by creating a user and linking it to my eshop and all that fun stuff. Got all set to enjoy my Wii U. Then I saw Nintendo was releasing the Limited Edition Zelda Windwaker HD Wii U. Being a huge Zelda fan. I had to have this new Zelda Wii U. Today I got my Zelda Wii U and started the process of selling my old one. First things first was deleting and restoring the old one to new factory settings. I went to do so and it mentioned something about my user and Id being permanently linked to this system. Now I'm nervous if I sell it the new owner can access my account and downloads. Also when I set up my new Wii U can I access my old account anymore? What do I do to be able to make the transfer as easy as possible with the least amount of headaches? Suggestions? Tips?

Forgive me if I'm wrong but isn't the Zelda Wii U just a regular black Wii U but with a special gamepad? If so then why don't you keep the first one and pair it with the Zelda gamepad?
- You're so money and you don't even know it!
- D-Dude, don't get me wrong, okay? It's just guy love, right? Between two guys?

I'll assume you already claimed your wind waked download on the new wii u, and ignore the above posters advice, which is actually a good idea if you haven't already activated the code.
You can call Nintendo and as long as you're persistent and talk tot he right managers, they might transfer your purchases.
Beyond that there is no way to re-claim anything if you format your wii u.
A format will permanently erase your shop account, so no the next purchases won't get your content, nor your id.
They're lost in the void at Nintendo. Even you can't use them, since there's still a lock to your old system for them games and the nintendo network id.
Generally Nintendo IDs are non-transferable, thought Nintendo may make an exception if you suffered a hardware failure.
How does one pair a different gamepad to the Wii U?

Is the process identical for pairing a second gamepad or a gamepad that has been pared to a different console before?
You can only use 1 gamepad at a time so it's identical.
