    One way to do this that I can think of is to make the gamepad be treated as a classic controller, with that I could even use it in some games.

    I'm new to all this so sorry if this has already been asked.

    Thank you

    Come on guys, this is a massive request. Is it so complicated or no one ever though of it?

    I can use the gamepad in all application except the vWii...

    The Wii U is still a great machine!

    Of course it is possible. You can control vwii with combination of wii u gamepad and wii remote gamepad. Without a TV and even without an infrared bar.

    That's not what he's asking - he wants to use the gamepad controls in vwii... which isn't possible I'm afraid, or rather, isn't feasible: it would at the very least require a new IOS created on the Wii side to achieve, something realistically only Nintendo themselves could do, and that isn't gonna happen.... think about it lads, if it was pretty easy to do it would have been done a long time ago ;)
    There are other topics about this on here, with probably more detailed answers than mine, so have a gander at them for more info :)

    And I assume we can't create a Wii U vWii forwarder with gamepad support (like Xenoblade Chronicles has) that loads the vWii menu
