Do I need a tv licence to play wii u just on its tablet controller?

Hey guys, This is probably the worst question I have asked but it was on my mind :).. Anyway I don't watch tv because its full of crap these days If I was to just play the wii u and only on the touch screen tablet without the tv would I need to have a tv licence?

ur in the UK?

how to skip TV license, buy a PC monitor with HDMI and 3.5mm audio out (add a set of PC speakers to the monitor's 3.5mm plug for sound). about the tablet controller, i reckon a lot of games may loose some gameplay abilities by playing onjly on the controller.

In the UK, you need a TV licence to watch any TV program when it is being broadcasted by any signal method (terrestrial, satellite, cable or the Internet). You don't need one if you use a TV to only watch DVDs, play video games or if you watch TV programs on your computer after they have been shown on TV. Because it is a tax if you don't pay it you will face criminal charges.

So to the TC, you can still play a Wii U on a TV without having a TV licence (it may be diferent if you don't live in the UK though).
