Actually scaling back would probably be much easier than trying to actually make a worthwhile upgrade (though they did say visually BOTW will be the same as Wii U). Generally speaking though, a dwongrade is easier than an upgrade.

Also, even though TP sold 1.6m on Gamecube, that did not stop Wii from being an AMAZING seller its first years. I'd say this is more telling about how little the impact would be than how big it would be.

According to whom? If this were the case you'd never hear the constant babble about Nintendo needing hardware power in the same range as competitors to accomodate third parties.

TP's 1.6m sales were 1.6m sales that were taken away from the Wii version and the Wii is the perfect example of why they shouldn't do what you say because Galaxy was a show piece for the platform and they completely left the GC behind when the Wii launched that's why it did well in the years after they fully committed to it rather than tag along a past platform.

They got third party support, and the PS3 Xbox 360 still gets it.

Also, no proof that people would didn't get the Wii just because TP was on Gamecube.
