I'm thinking of selling my wii u because I dont play it no more. What happens to the games I downloaded on it if I delete my Nintendo ID? Do they stay on the console?

Those games are linked to your ID. If you delete your account, those games will be erased on the Wii U.

Since your not playing it anymore and want it gone, does it really matter what happens to the games?

They'd add extra value if he'd be able to keep them on the system...
