17 people owned a Wii U. They might as well release the entire library on the Switch.

This doesn't make it any less of a bad thing. We need to remember how there is a good reason why nobody bought a Wii U, and the games had a lot to do with it.

...and make the Switch fail just as badly as the Wii U since all it will have is the shitty shit from that failed console?

1 - The system itself was garbage
2 - There were no third party games.

Switch fixes 1 and 2, so you might as well take the first party games it had and put em on a much better console

Kinda hard to be aware of your surroundings if you are just engaged in a fucking game console the whole time. Like, you seriously need to stare at a fucking game console 24/7 and can't even go outside without one?

Yeah I never get this whining about remasters and ports. It's not like they choose between a remaster and an entirely new game.

The biggest thing was poor execution of the system(bulky, slow U.I, short range etc.) and shit advertising combined with terrible third party support,

The lack of games was partly because the system landed with a dull thud.

And the ports at least often do something to make them more appealing.

Hyrule Warriors bundles in all the content from the previous versions including the Paid DLC and adds some refinements
Pokken Tournament DX has the formerly arcade exclusive characters + a new character and other minor content
Captain Toad has new Mario Odyssey based levels and co-op
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has all the DLC packed in + Expanded battle mode, and double items

DK doesnt really add much of anything though

Let's not pretend this entire console generation hasnt been pretty heavy on ports.

Ports also aren't a really bad thing. Especially when they're ports of games that most people probably didn't play because they came out on a console relatively few people owned.

Hold leash with pinky, or bottom two fingers. Hold handheld with rest of fingers.

I guess this might be problematic if you have a dog that pulls hard though

It's not old for me, which is the only thing that matters!

Kids can say that about everything, doesn't mean every new console should be focused on porting over old games.
