Fun Fact: The PS4 was heavily defended by fans from the critic, but we aren't allowed to do the same for Nintendo I guess.

and we are back to the but, but, but them too

Your sentence contained a but. I made fun of it.
Yes, PS4 got criticized. Back then I was surprised the PS4 sold well despite that. I realized it is not that important. Now Nintendo does the same with Switch, and again it works. Would more new games make me happy? Sure, you can bet on it. But (yes, yes, yes, I said it) the PS4 got over time new titles. So I'm content this will happen with the Switch too. First year already looked better with Breath of the Wild (a multiplat is NOT a port), Fire Emblem Warriors, Arms, Kingdom Battle (which was to my surprise a great game), Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade Chronicles. 2018 looks not that great so far and suddenly it is all Doom and Gloom. But (I did it again) at January in 2017 we didn't know about all games I just mentioned.
And more to it, I think most of the ones complaining here about ports never owned a WiiU. So, from their point of view the games are new to them.
Also the shovelware argument is just ridiculous. Indies are (mostly) not shovelware. I don't get the Indie-hate here in these forums from some people. Games like Petz or random movie tie-ins are shovelware. Games that are made with minimal resources and no heart to get a quick buck. Indies are mostly dreams of their developers. Often they get into debts and take personal hardships (like no pay for some months) to get their dream-game ready. The resulting game is something different than the soulless game made for a movie to get some purchases from the hype.
