I think Switch will get two Mario Karts, two 3D Marios, two full 3D Zeldas, a 2D Zelda, Splatoon 1.5 + full Splatoon sequel, two Smash Bros., etc. etc. There's lots to doubt about Switch, but not Nintendo support, that unified library and also being able to quickly rework Wii U games is going to result in an absolute monstrous Nintendo library for the system.

That's why I think they want to do the "remix" route with Mario Kart 8.5/Splatoon 1.5/Super Smash U 1.5 very early in the life cycle, they can get those out of the way quick, then in year 2/3 the full blown sequels can arrive (ie: Mario Kart 9).

Having two Mario Kart, Smash Bros and Splatoon games on one console is totally different than having two 3D Mario's, two 3D Zeldas, etc, beacuse MK, Smash and Splatoo are compettive online and multiplayer games and they were always (expect Splatoon offcourse) one game per console compared to basically all other Nintendo franchises and games.

We could have Mario Kart 8.5 and Diddy Kong Racing for instance instead of having two Mario Karts games on one console, Smash Bros 4.5 and remaster of Pokken Tournament, Splatoon is only year and half old game so Switch could easily get only Splatoon 1.5.
