Of Course they will look like Wii U games when they are actually Wii U games (MK and Splatoon), lol. Actually only game that isnt Wii U game, 3D Mario, looked better, but Nintendo said people don't need to assume that games look or run exactly same.

Those aren't Wii U games though they had new content. Those are Switch games, that's what they'll look like on Switch. 

It makes senese looking at these specs too, 384 GFLOPS is basically double a Wii U which should give you Wii U fidelity at 1080P.

Wii U graphics are still a challenge for Nintendo, every one of their more ambitious Wii U titles has taken huge amounts of time (and likely more money than they're used to spending) to develop. 

Maybe they are even remasters running at 1080p or some other improvements, you can't really tell from Switch video because you cant see such a difference from small video. And again, Nintendo said people don't need to assume that games look or run exactly same.

Its not only about raw power on paper, very modern Nvidia tech and architecture will have higher real world performance compared to Wii U, also its not only about different GPU power, it's also about CPU and amount of RAM, ARM A57 is much stronger and much more capable than Wii U CPU, also most likly Switch will have 3x more RAM for games compared to Wii U. Also fact is that Switch is using custom Tegra, so there's definitely some under hood improvements.

Thats not true at all, fact is that Wii U was first Nintendo HD console and they had lotsa problems with HD development, and only game that took huge amount of time is Zelda BotW but that's not nothing new for 3D Zelda. Also its seems that will much easiere to work with Switch compared to Wii U, not to mention that Switch is unified console from Nintendo so we will have games from all handhelds and home console Nintendo teams that are now united.
