Here is my list of Wii U Games that work without requiring the Wii U GamePad accessory. This could be borrowed for setup then returned with no further need to own a GamePad after setup / homebrew / game installing is complete It is worth noting that you will need a Wii U GamePad to set up a console. There are many games that will launch without first checking for GamePad connection and can also be played with the WiiMote (Classic Controller / Nunchuk) and/or Wii U Pro Controller. Other games will launch but then require the GamePad after loading. Some games are compatible with the WiiMote and Wii U Pro Controller and can be played without the USE of the GamePad, however WILL NOT LAUNCH unless you have a GamePad connected. Many Wii U games will not launch without a GamePad present. Inevitably resulting in scarcity of working GamePads while many working consoles will likely remain in abundance. The Wii U GamePad is going to become a relic that will become increasingly harder to find as they break down, go missing, are destroyed, batteries die etc.
