I'm worried the games won't look as good since it's designed onto a smaller screen. This should be quite interesting.

Meh not really a big deal to me XD I don't even own a Wii U so yeah... but i feel like it's a smart marketing move.

DS games on the Nintendo Wii U will definitely boost sales. I wonder how some of the games will play on the Wii U? Too bad I don't have a Wii U to find out, although I'll probably buy one when the new Smash and Mario Kart comes out Now I want Nintendo to add GBA games to the Nintendo 3DS.

I can only see one problem with DS games on the virtual console for the Wii U: some games use both screens as one continuous screen (Sonic Rush comes to mind). I don't think they'll be easy to play with basically the "screen area" split in two parts, one far from you on the TV, the other close to you on the gamepad. If they allow switching between only displaying the top screen on the TV and displaying both screens at the same time, then it's OK.

And I'm kinda sad that this announcement basically kills this concept: The DS U. I know, it's a fan-made concept, but Nintendo once said they'll think about it, guess they decided against it.

Friend codes:
Pokémon GO: 2092-0866-5439 | Electric-type Safari: 4468-2370-5617 (Electrode - Pikachu - Galvantula) | Dark-type Safari: 1134-8222-3179 (Nuzleaf - Cacturne - Liepard)
PM before adding. If you don't mention which code you added, I will NOT add you back.
