We should be happy that they are allowing Wii games playable on the Tablet at all!
They could have easily said "only the new games work on the new controller" - in fact that still might easily be the case knowing Nintendo.
We'd all love Mario Galaxy to be playable only using the Tablet, I mean you can shake it and point using it right, why wouldn't it work?
But I highly doubt that would happen without a HD remake. If it does happen, we're more than likely going to be playing using a Wii Remote pointing at the Wii U Tablet, not ideal but I'll take it if I can play Galaxy in bed!
I really hope they make the Tablet a universal remote as suggested, this could be the advantage it has over the other systems, a full media centre controllable all from one (portable) screen.
The problem the 360 and the PS3 have is that they're gaming systems through and through, no self respecting parent/grandparent is going to say "fire up the Xbox I feel like watching Harry Potter", the interface is baffling (yes even the newest ones) it's one of the reasons why Netflix is most popular on Wii, the remote controller like interface and easy to navigate buttons.
With stuff like Hulu getting more popular, an easy to use and familiar interface could give Nintendo a huge advantage. I can't wait to see what they do with it!
