My kid brother is keeping my Wii U alive. Still buys games for it.

.

I still love my WiiU. It's an underappreaciated little system and the gamepad is one of the most comfortabe controllers I've ever used.
I love the Switch too and I get why it's designed the way it is, but handheld play is so cramp inducing.

The wiiU has a great Library, similar to the Gamecube in that regard, but I feel like it will be less remembered for it because just about everything is getting enhanced ports/sequels now.
What really get's me is how almost every single Zelda game in playable on it, it really is a Zelda machine.

No need to feel bad. I had fun with the titles years earlier. I even rebought some of the titles - not because I had, because I wanted to. I wished the WiiU would've been more successful, but I'm not mad at anyone over the WiiU. Well, I am mad for one point: Why Nintendo did oyu have to kill off Miiverse? That couldn't have been that expensive, why not just keep it?

I kind of feel the 3DS has a lot in common with the Wii U.  It definitely has some good games, but overall it is disappointing compared to other Nintendo handhelds.

Nooo! *cries silently with his beloved 3DS in the arms*

Actually, most WiiU buyers, like me, felt ripped when Nintendo stopped "supporting" (i.e. making new exclusive projects) the platform in early 2016.

The WiiU had 2 and a half years, from mid 2013 to 2015 end, in terms of great releases, after that, few good games were launched and the lineup was most composed of indie titles.  Nintendo could, at least, localize some Japanese games, or make deals with third-parties to bring more ports to the platform. A price cut to boost sales would also help, but they never cut its price, not even when the Switch was announced. This is something I really don´t understand why. 

Of course, many of its good exclusive games were later ported to the Switch, something that "reduced" the importance of the WiiU as a collector´s piece, but on the other side allowed more people to enjoy those games, that really deserved more recognition, like Bayonetta 2 or Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze. As a WiiU owner, I really don´t felt ripped by that, but by the lack of support after early 2016

It has a good library? I mean its not exactly a vast library of notable content.

I have almost every Wii U game worth owning and that was easy to do because there aren't many. I had fun with it, don't regret buying it, but I don't feel it had a strong library as a whole.

I see Wii U and its failure as Nintendo's transition from home console to doubling down on mobile. I much prefer a Nintendo that focuses on a single platform and portable works for them since they haven't put an emphasis on power since the 6th gen.

There are so many things that WiiU had that I miss on Switch (or PS4/XB1):
Miiverse (and private conversations) with drawings, text, stamps, screenshots.
All the marvelous artists on miverse and Art Academy.
The possibility to browse the web privatly and then display it on the TV if I want share with others.
Pictionary games. Great fun for family & friends.
Animal Crossing plaza wich gave me hope of a new AC game.
The possibility to play on the tablet and still be part of the family conversation.
The Fisher Price quality plastic that allowed the tablet controler to fall numerous times on the floor without any damage.
The ergonomic handle of the tablet that made it possible to fall asleep without loosing the grip.
The alluring possibility of asynchronous gameplay that never really materialized.
Mario Maker. How will MM2 work on the Switch? A handheld game only?
The HD Zelda ports: TP, WW.
...and much more...

Splatoon was my life.
