But its not. Its every single of their biggest IPs from several years ago arriving year one. It would be like if Sony launched with TLOU R, Nathan Drake Collection, God of War Remastered, Ratchet and Clank, Beyond: 2 Souls, Fat Princess, and nearly every other PS3 game at the launch of PS4. Do you think Sony fans would have been happy? They would be saying exactly the same thing Wii U owners are saying. We played those. Where's the new stuff? How about some BC instead of trying to bend us over for stuff we already have?

But it is. It'd be like if sony launched the PS4 with God of War 4, Infamous Second Son, cross gen Uncharted 4 and bunch of huge remasters like TLOU, GT6 etc. 

Objectively speaking, launching with a Mario Kart enhanced port in year one is better then having no Mario Kart at all. You can argue that you want to see more new games, thats fine, but lets not act as if this won't hugely benefit Nintendo. BC with Wii U is impossible considering what the Switch is so put that to rest.

I don't see why it wouldn't be impossible to have digital BC. Xbox One and Xbox 360 are two entirely different things and MS pulls it off. Wii U is pretty much running on an electrified potato so I'm sure that it won't be near as difficult to pull off. And yes it will hugely benefit Nintendo to make the same people double dip on games they bought. I'm just saying that its not right to bend dedicated fans over for the same stuff they bought a couple years ago just because they added a couple things to make it not seem like its a blatant cash grab.

Digital BC should be a focus for them instead of doing the PS4 double dip. Especially considering the suffering Wii U owners have went through. Its bad enough that Nintendo is tryiing to tell people that a tablet is a home console.
