Oh please Hynad, plenty of peoplke acts like is not there, how many times have you heard the "but is only a wiiu game" excuse?

As for the rest, I've answerd you a second before you wrote this

That's not an excuse it is a valid point.  If I didn't have a Wii U I would be buying Switch day 1 to play the new Zelda.  Instead I will be waiting until the new Mario game drops to pick up the Switch during the holiday while buying BotW on my Wii U.  As others have mentioned early adopters are going to make the Switch launch a success regardless of the line-up.  However, the line-up - even with Zelda - is a weak line-up.  It has a great game in it that will sell well on the Wii U and probably sell gangbusters on the Switch, but that doesn't save it from being a weak line-up.

I don't think Nintendo has to worry about all 20 Wii U owners not buying a Switch right away.
