RE: Wii U

It will be backwards compatable with Wii games and controlers, though not Gamecube.I've already got mine pre-ordered with ZombiU (a survival horror FPS) and I'll probably get Batman: Arkham City and Black Ops II at some point, then Pikmin 3 when it's out (early 2013). I have heard that Wii U Zelda won't be out until 2014, but that's already on my list.

I believe the gamepad has built in accelerometer and gyroscope for motion control so you don't need a sensor bar to use it. Some games (like Nintendo Land)will use Wiimotes as secondary controlers for multiplayer.
