Why updated ports make sense for Nintendo fans

A lot of people are missing an important factor for these ports.  Porting these Wii U games helps the Nintendo teams get familiar with the new Switch hardware and gets Wii U game engines running on Switch hardware which will expedite future releases of NEW games on the Switch in the process.  You got to learn to walk before you run.

So everytime they release a new machine Nintendo is going to port the past library to learn to develop for it?

 

If that's the case, the company must consider looking for better dev teams or for other areas to expand because they are going to fail hard with that idea.
