Have you bought a bunch of Virtual Console games? Do you have endless SD cards filled to overflowing with purchased WiiWare? And are you frightened that those investments might be lost when the Wii U arrives to take its place as your primary Nintendo portable?
Fear not. They won't.
Nintendo has confirmed that all of your old Wii downloads – including WiiWare games and Virtual Console classics – will be able to be transferred to your new Wii U. The confirmation comes to us via ABC News, and the report goes on to say that a restructuring of user logins and accounts will occur to help make the transition happen.
We won't know for sure exactly what that means for a while, but if it's anything like the solution Nintendo came up with for moving DSiWare purchases to new 3DS units, the process should involve a lot of cute Pikmin scurrying around your screen.
More details as we get them. Stick around.
Finally some good news
