Can the Wii U send it sound over bluetooth ?

[chaparral]

Does anyone know if the wii U can send it sound to Bluetooth speakers ?

Does the wii U even have Bluetooth ?

I highly doubt it.

Not as far as I know, your best bet would be to plug the speakers into the gamepad's headphone jack (if the speakers support it). Otherwise you're out of luck I think.

You won't be able to connect Bluetooth speakers no. The Wii U does use Bluetooth for it's peripherals but there is no interface for use outside of first party products.

If you need to get audio directly from the console you could try use the AV out on the back if you have Wii component cables laying around. You would then need to change the audio output cable config in the Wii U audio settings. I haven't tried this myself so might be worth doing some research first... should work though.
