If not available, then upgraded (ie, Smash Ultimate)?

I'm trying to determine how skippable the WiiU has become at this point.

Monolith already said Xenoblade X will be too expensive to port to Switch

the only other big one I'd say is missing is Tokyo Mirage Sessions

I'm betting Super Mario 3D World will make it to switch eventually after NMSBU Deluxe

50/50 on Wind Waker and Twilight Princess HD

As much as I wish that Xenoblade X gets ported... it probably won't.

still worth getting a wii u tho >_>

That's more than I expected actually! I was certain the path Nintendo was going down was to reissue every WiiU game as a Switch port and essentially discontinue the system.

The 1000s of VC games, for sure. That's where the Wii U's worth comes in.

Game & Wario and Nintendo Land basically can't be ported to other consoles due to how deep the functionality is, to the point where a lot would have to be reworked for the ground up.

And yeah I doubt #FE will be ported for all of the fifteen copies it will sell compared to the twenty it sold last time.

W101 is probably the biggest loss. Yoshi is a weird case. It's totally doable, it just has already been ported to something.

Mario Maker and Yoshi are also on 3DS anyway. So yeah, the Zelda HD games, Tokyo Mirage, Xenoblade X and Pikmin. 3D World will surely be ported

I have to believe theyll announce a Zelda HD Trilogy for Switch with WW/TP/SS at some point, probably E3

Its a perfect placeholder until the next big new Zelda.

Great. I skipped WiiU for as long as I did because there weren't any worthwhile games near launch, and by the time there was something I wanted, the Switch had already been announced and I figured there'd be backwards compatibility.

And then there wasn't. And now you're all saying that like 95% of the WiiU's library will get ported to the Switch anyway, but I'd still need a WiiU for the one game that I actually care about?

They're definitely going to announce Wonderful 102 for 2019 and it'll have W101 free like Bayonetta 2 had Bayonetta 1.

That game sold less than 101 copies. Why the hell would they finance a sequel?

Although it's on 3DS, some of the game's functionality has been stripped down from the Wii U version. Like not being able to share your levels online.

A Switch version would be possible since it does have a touchscreen that can be used for the level creation aspect, but Nintendo would have to solve the problem of how level creation would work when the game is docked (no access to the touchscreen).

It sold disproportionately well in France! This is Nintendo's chance to finally bust into the EU market!

There are other games that only work in portable mode, so I don't think they'd have to let you create levels when docked.
