No NFC games in the Wii U launch window

There are no Wii U games in the console’s launch window that will be making use of Near Field Communication – including Skylanders Giants and Rayman Legends.
Nick Ruepp, producer at Vicarious Visions, says that the studio considered implementing the technology for Skylanders Giants, but decided against it.
“We did entertain the idea. We didn’t want to cripple the GamePad the entire time just so you could put your Skylander on the GamePad.”
Ubisoft also considered NFC support for Rayman Legends. Actually, many of you may remember that the functionality was hinted at in a leaked internal video.
Nintendo product manager Bill Trinen confirmed to Polygon that there won’t be any NFC-supported games right out of the gate. However, he doesn’t think it’ll be “too far out” before we see developers take advantage of the technology.
“That is a new tech, particularly with it being available in the U.S. A lot of the developers are wondering what are the options? How do we leverage it? As they start to come with their ideas, solutions and great content, we will talk more about it. I don’t anticipate it will be too far out.”

Wii digital content can’t be played on the GamePad, transfer process tidbits
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Nintendo has confirmed that all Wii digital content won’t make use of the GamePad. That means you won’t be able to play Virtual Console (or WiiWare) titles on the controller.
In order to transfer digital content from a Wii to a Wii U, you’ll need both systems and an SD card. It’ll work very similarly to the DSi to 3DS transfer process.
One other important note: Nintendo of America won’t confirm that the transfer tool will be available at launch.
