trading my wii u for money. Downloaded games question

im trading my wii u with 5 games and 1 extra game which i downloaded for money. how can i do it that the person that buys my wii u can download the game again.
i read that the games are connected to the console and not the account so if i unlink my nnid from the wii u and trade it, the next person who makes a nnid will be able to download the games that the previous owner had bought online. I want to do this because the certain person whos "trading" it wants the game that i bought online and is willing to pay extra. Do i just unlink the account from the console or i do a system restart?

Unlinking the NNID will delete the game and you wont be able to redownload the game i think

Games are linked to NNIDs. Unless you give him your NNID and let him use it, he can't DL it.

You done goofed son, now is the time to actually own a Wii U (Unless you're on a tight budget then continue)

Isn't the game on the console and he's getting the console? I just got a wii u and I'm not sure
