Why would you prefer a console with less options? Backwards compatibility instantly opens a whole library to a console, it's like having two machines in one.

What library? It is so thin on the Wii U it is not worth the effort. People can just keep their Wii Us.

NSMB U NSL U Nintendo Land Super Mario 3D World Pikmin 3 ZombiU Lego City Undercover The Wonderful 101 Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze Captain Toad Bayonetta 2 Hyrule Warriors SSB U Yoshi U Kirby U Xenoblade Chronicles X Fire Emblem U Star Fox U Zelda U Mario Maker Wii Fit U SMT x Fire Emblem Devil's Third
And those are just the ones we know about, the console has only been out for 2 years and 2 months so far.

Yes a very small library that isn't worth the effort of getting the gamepad to work and adding extra cost fo the backwards compadibility. If people don't want the gamepad now what makes you think they will buy it as an addon to play old games on a new system? Sure there is will be a small core of gamers that had a Wii U but to them I say keep your Wii U you.
Next console should focus on the core gamer not just the Nintendo gamer and supporting 3rd party devs.
