Yes, the souls game should work. I haven't tried it but I can't see why it shouldn't.

The system as a whole feels extremely polished; I haven't felt like anything in the interface paradigm is awkward or inappropriate. As for launch titles I've only played Nintendo Land because I couldn't afford anything else (I had preordered Rayman but it got delayed until March) -- but I'm extremely satisfied with it. Lots of fun games in it; they're not really MINI-games, but rather small-scale ACTUAL games.

My only complaint is that Nintendo Land wants Wii Motion Plus controllers, which are of course the standard controllers for the Wii U, but I don't HAVE any, so I'm extremely limited in which games I can play. I'm tempted to see how much trade value I can get; swapping two Wii Remotes for one Wii Remote With Motion Plus would potentially be a good trade for me if I can land it.
