This is a given. Nintendo put a lot of development money in those games and needs to recuperate those costs since it was a bit wasted on the WiiU.

A Mariomaker port is coming also.

Wasted? They say that the massive, big team, several years in development Zelda BOTW needs to sell 2 million to make a profit. Imagine how much profit Splatoon, MK8 and Mario Maker made with between 3-6 million sold each...

Nintendo is indeed good at cost management, but I meant more wasted in sales potential. The Wii U just lost too little. Imagine that those games were put on the 3DS instead, the profits would haven been higher.

Nintendo knows that a big part of the new, potential NS audience never played them, just like some of the PS4 remasters worked. So this makes a lot of sense. Even more so when you look at NS software support. It needs to be there in the first year.
