AFAIK they basically 'downgrade' the Wii U to behave like the Wii, although vWii does have it's own NAND.
 
That was an interesting read. While a lot of it is still over my head, the connections I could make intrigued me.
When you have an hour, watch the video and follow along with the slides.
Even just switching back between wii and wii u diagrams will give you a better understanding.
 
The wiiU GPU is a completely redo. It has the registers of the old wii but its now a completely shader based gpu. I would imagine though that on future consoles, wii emulation would be done entirely in software. Or they would pull a ps3 launch and have the hardware onboard seeing as its super cheap/runs very cool.

But yeah, similar CPU, MUCH different GPU
