You know, Switch is aimed for the kids parents, so that the kids too would get their hands on Nintendo hardware. The market is different than the Wii U market.

It was aimed to the COD and Fifa gamer. Everything in it was just made "better". The controller was a gimmick to lure in the "high tech gimmick" portion of the market. Minigames are very much core games (because the casual COD/Fifa gamers are the industrys core market), and it should've been easy to port the PS360 games on Wii U - only with better controls and a controller gimmick for people interested in hardware. 

Since when are COD and FIFA casual games? They don't seem like it.

Who don't like COD and Fifa? Sports fans? Or people in their teens and twenties who are under social pressure to play the games because they're popular? They're the core games and the casual audience is the core audience of the industry.
