Not enouth games.
I did that for the Wii U. Saw there wasn't enough games that interested me. I never bought one

Personally, they'd be risking a lot by not launching with one of their heavy IPs. They Wii U didn't have anything major that was exciting to many. NSMB U felt like a rehash, and Nintendo Land was, well... With console launches, you need to come out hard, just like they used to. Getting Mario and Zelda all at once shows to me that they are at least trying, whereas the Wii U was them just burning money and leftover goodwill from the Wii. I'll wait until people actually professionally review BotW before making my own judgements though. I mean, I haven't really played a Zelda game that I disliked, so I'll probably enjoy it regardless of what kind of ratings it gets.

I want to thank them for this. To me, it tacitly admits that they goofed with the Wii U, and this is a small way of saying "my bad" (although, it's kinda like flipping off existing Wii U owners). I don't want to have to sink a couple hundred dollars on a used Wii U to play MK8 or Splatoon, and then turn around an sink another $500 buying all my switch stuff this year. So thanks, Nintendo. They dropped the ball, but at least they aren't making me pick it up
