Our Wii just died on us & we have a lot of games for it. Are the Wii games compatible with the Wii U console?

You can play all Wii games on the Wii U as long as you have the wii remote. You cannot play Wii games on the Wii U gamepad, though.

Not even a little. All wii games can be played on wii u but not the other way around.

So far no unless you want to play regular Wii games all wiiu games so far are compatible with the wiiu game pad that comes with it.

Not exactly. It won't work with Wiiu games. This is intended for either the Wii or the Wii virtual console that is built within the Wiiu.

I'm not 100% certain, but I highly doubt it. It's a WiiU game, there's no reason it should work on the older Wii console. If you're looking for a similar style game on Wii, consider Wii Party.

Nope my friend.. wii u its compatible with the old wii remotes, wii nunchuks, wii classic controller, wii u pro controller and soon it will be compatible with gamecube controllers aswell. But of course it all depends on the games.. if a game it's designed to use motion device.. u will most likely have to use the wii remotes to play and other stuffs, some games let you use all type of controllers.. others don't.

You can play wii games on the wii u. You will have to save the data from the wii on a sd card and tranfer it to the wii u. Wii u has instruction on how to do it

Sadly, no, the Wii U Pro Controller is currently not compatible with any original Wii software. An update which could patch in functionality is possible, but not likely. Your best option is the Classic Controller Pro originally designed for the Wii, which also works with the Wii U.

Yes you can. My son ulocked all the character in his Wii. We did use the transfer tool to keep all our save files from the Wii to Wii U and it worked perfectly!

As others stated, Wii-U games are only playable on a Wii-U console. The Wii-U however is completely backwards compatible with all Wii titles, Wii Virtual Console titles, and Wii-Motes/Nunchucks, except a few dance games/accessories that may require the GameCube controller ports. The Wii-U is not backwards compatible with GameCube games or accessories.

Yes it will work the only ones that don't work on the wii would be the new wii u games

Perhaps. There are GameCube controller adapters such as Mayflash Nintendo GameCube Controller Adapter for Wii/Wii U that supposedly will allow you to play on the Wii U. I haven't tried one.The Wii U does not have GameCube ports, and games released on the Wii U aren't made with the GameCube control scheme in mind.

Yes you can. Wii U is backwards compatible and plays all Wii games. It is also compatible with all Wii controllers and accessories.

Nope, Wii games played on the Wii U must be played with Wii controllers. You can pick up the Wii Classic Pro Controller and a Wii mote, but as for the Wii U Pro controller, that can only be used with compatible Wii U games.

No, Wii Fit U is only for the WiiU console. There is however a Wii Fit Plus and that's for Wii.

You can still use it with your Wii U. You will just have to resync it to the Wii U using the sync buttons on the console and controller.
