Current gen games are not going to be an issue for the WiiU that's for sure, and in all honesty it has enough power to create some decent games. I think people might be expecting a little too much of next gen games, they are not going to look or play that much better. Yeah they will run in 1080p at 60fps (hopefully) but other than some fancy new effects you are not going to see the sort of difference from previous gen to current gen.
I suspect most next gen games will probably run on the WiiU just in 720p and maybe at 30fps, whether devs port the games over or remains to be seen. I don't think the first couple of years are going to be a problem, and as time goes on more and more devs are using middleware engines such as UT anyway. These engines are pretty scaleable.
The thing with the Wii was it really didn't have enough grunt to do most of the current gen games justice, not to mention the laxck of HD. I don't think that will happen with the WiiU.
