Not supporting your system is anti consumer, what do you think happened to all the 2016 games that was supposed to be released on WiiU? they didn't vanish into thin air, the projects moved to Switch. I don't think Nintendo delivered on the promise they made to the consumers when they sold them the WiiU, a lot franchises were not released on it, and a lot of games were rushed, unfinished or had half the content they should have had.
Also the sales of the WiiU are only Nintendo's fault, they should have reacted faster when they saw the WiiU failing, they should have dropped the gamepad (since they barely used it anyway...), made the console a lot cheaper, like 200 with one game. Like Microsoft did with the Xbox One and Kinect.
As for Zelda, the reason why the WiiU version is released on the day as the Switch version, is because Nintendo pushed it back to 2017 for the Switch launch, we know the game could have been released at least end of 2016 on WiiU. Don't be so naive.
Anyway it's not just about "being screwed", it's more about not being sure that Nintendo is able to deliver on their promises anymore, on the quality and quantity of content they used to make. Today, I just don't know that if the Switch is not a success, Nintendo will do what is necessarry. The switch has poor 3rd party support, the first party support isn't stellar either, and I can't say that I am sure that things will pick up later, not after what happened with the WiiU.
There was a time, when I bought a Nintendo console, I knew I was going to get "this", now I don't know what I'm going to get. Do you understand the problem here?

What games did Nintendo promise that got moved to the Switch? If they never promised these games how are they screwing you over? Of course they moved projects over to the Switch after they saw the Wii U was a lost cause, that's what any smart business would do.
As for Zelda, TP was also delayed for a Wii port and it released two weeks before the GC version.
Yes, the sales of the Wii U are Nintendo's fault, but it's not like they did it on purpose.
And Nintendo's games on the Wii U weren't really bad...
Super Mario 3D World: 93%
Super Smash Bros. 4: 92%
Bayonetta 2 (wouldn't exist without Nintendo financing it): 91%
The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker HD: 90%
Mario Kart 8: 88%
Super Mario Maker: 88%
Pikmin 3: 87%
Twilight Princess HD: 86%
Xenoblade Chronicles 2: 84%
New Super Mario Bros. U: 84%
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze: 83%
Splatoon: 81% (and it got a butt load of free dlc after release)
Captain Toad: 81%
Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE: 80%
Pushmo World: 80%
Sony has 13 games that scored at least 80% on metacritic (and many are remasters).
