I hate how Nintendo made the Wii U completely worthless just a few years after being discontinued. Even Gamecube was treated better.

At some level, I agree, but even the Gamecube sold twice as well as the WiiU did. The WiiU sold *very* poorly, which is really a shame because it had some fantastic titles. For the sake of allowing more people to experience those games without having to buy a system that they generally don't consider worthwhile (as well as some easy extra revenue for studios that had trouble recovering development costs due to the system's low install base), I'm fine with seeing most of those titles ported and the system rendered obsolete (particularly where I didn't really expect to get more games for it once the Switch launched anyway). It kind of sucks to be "stuck" with the inferior versions because I don't really want to buy enhanced ports so soon after buying the original games, but really, I'm okay with missing out on the bit of extra content.
