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.

You're right, but only if new Switch owner buy every Switch game for all Switch history. The moment one of them miss one, Nintendo should retroactively delay Zelda for the next platform hopefully more loyal buyers.
