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

With the different architecture of the Switch vs. former (GC to Wii U era) systems it's a good idea to their top teams used to the new hardware fast.  And it's not like there isn't precedence for this even on past Nintendo systems.  The only difference is that they're porting more popular games and getting it done really early on.

 

TP was released first on Wii than GC. RE games were fillers, not counted as "big" releases. On top of that, there was a new controller input for the Wii versions unlike the wii u ports to switch.
