After how they shat all over Wii U owners that they promised support to, I hope Nintendo goes bankrupt. They deserve to fail. Anyway I doubt Switch will hit anywhere near Wii U numbers. Best case, it will sell as much as the 3DS did.

The problem with the Wii U third-party support was all about specs. The Wii U could not keep up with 360 and PS3, so when third-party games ran worse than 360 and PS3 games that was the nail in the coffin. Also, the Gamepad was useless.

You mean Xbox One and PS4.  The Wii U had better specs than the PS3 and 360.

If Wii U had better specs than PS3 and 360 they wouldn't have had any trouble porting 360 and PS3 games to Wii U. The reality is that the Wii U CPU was significantly weaker than the 360 or PS3 CPU so third-party ports ran worse on Wii U than on 360 or PS3.
