I have got 4 wii U premiums for my extended family since the 3ds hacking scene is complete with freeshop etc and was thinking the Wii U was complete as well, but currently i would need to buy a DS Virtual Game for each console to run homebrew .. If i wait a few months or more, will there be better ways to get to homebrew/CFW? also does Wii U even have Freeshop?

If all Wii U's are on 5.5.1, then I suggest putting custom DNS(it's on the guide) to avoid updating to 5.5.2. With that, you can just use browserhax to load MochaCFW(so you always need internet and to access the browser to have CFW). But if you are on 5.5.2, I suggest buying a DS VC(Brain Training/Brain Age is the cheapest they say) and install Haxchi(or CBHC if you want) once you manage to get into homebrew since the current web exploit on 5.5.2 is unstable.

nah these are going to Kids, all that stuff is to complex for them, haxchi/ds game is the only opion for now.. but if the hacking scene is still active for the wii U, i can wait some more years since the kids are still young

As long as you use the web browser exploit you can install and run a ton of games that can run without CFW (no DLC, eshop games, virtual console etc), that might be enough for most of your Wii U's.

Wii U hacking is excellent right now. I finally moved to using CBHC after Wii and now even Gamecube repacking is possible for Wii HDD. This is VERY GREAT right now.

Overall everything is simple enough with Wii U and the amount of stuff you can extend your Wii U to play with VC injects or Wii injects. It all is pretty great, really.

Not likely. The Wii U is dead, even Nintendo has stopped supporting it. There wasn't much of a homebrew scene to begin with, and there is very little left of it now.
