Wii U owners don't deserve anything. If they had bought more games Nintendo wouldn't even be forced to bring the Switch so early.

That's a joke? Wii U owners are the most loyal fans, attach rate for many Wii U exclusives is insane. Real Animal Crossing on Wii U would have sold millions. Real Zelda BotW with dual-screen functional in 2016 would have sold millions. Real Metroid with sick ass U pad integration would have sold millions on Wii U. But Nintendo decided to kill console because they fucked up everything.

Well imagine what would've happened if all Wii U owners bought every game? Nintendo whould be swimming in millions and wouldn't even think of releasing another console. But the Wii U owners chose not to do that.

Real loyalty means putting money where your mouth is. For example people who buy the Switch at launch for $300. People like that deserve to play the new Zelda game on time at least as much as the non-game-buying Wii U owners.
