I don't care about playing Wii software with this sort of BC, but it's an ugly solution for people that heavily invested in VC and WiiWare games. I'm glad I didn't buy into VC games heavily, as I feared it would be impossible to transfer them, or something really bad like this. Odds of Wii VC purchases being left behind after the Wii U generation.. extremely high. I hope they offer a solution later on, even if it means sending in your unit, to put your Wii Shop purchases directly on to your Wii U instead of rebuying them all.
