I have more than three kids and they all want to play. How can I have more than three savegames, so that they can all play the game?

You should if there is functionally on the Wii U to back up save data as what there was on the Wii

On the Wii with Dragonball Z Bodukai Tenkaiichi 2 it used a global save where if you wanted to start a new game you'd end up erasing the progress of the current data and it was a big game featuring scenarios from almost every Dragonball Z Saga and Movie (to the date of the game's release) plus "What If" scenarios and scenarios where you play as the bad guys/second party.

Because it's such a large game and my brother originally brought it and played it it would be a problem for someone like me to who wanted to start from the beginning wiping out his progress and build things up my own way. In order to get around this we used 2 SD Cards, one for him and one for me. When I wanted to go on I would take his SD Card, back up his game to it then take my SD Card and restore my save game. When he wanted to play, vice versa.

Now provided the Wii U has similar if not the same kind of save game backup functionality you can do a similar thing by backing up the original data. When the players of that data want to resume their game(s) simply backup the current data on a separate medium (SD Card, Harddrive, etc.) and restore the original data and if the second group wants to play you update the first backup and restore the second.
