With the Switch launching with what appears to be the best of the Wii U or at the very least, enhanced remakes. There is an interesting approach of Nintendo repackaging what their core audience may have missed because they skipped the Wii U or simply stuck with the 3DS entirely.
The Xbox One and PS4 are doing similar experiences post launch to bolster their library during release droughts with emulated BC and such. However, the Switch seems to be the first console to be able to repackage all-star prior gen content and launch with it without seeming cheap or exploitative because a lot of gamers most definitely missed these games basically making them new experiences.
The potential of launching with Switch and WiiUmastered software makes this software launch potentially massive and it doesn't even factor in Nintendo's portable output. It seems like the Wii Us failure can ultimately lead to incredible Dreamcast like momentum during the launch period of the Switch.
What does Gaf make of this very unique launch output situation?
