Why would you just assume that you're "hitting a nerve"?
It's not exact equivalence. The Switch is getting ports of current gen games. It is not the same as Playstation 3 or Xbox 360 games being ported over to the Xbox One and Playstation 4 to make their libraries look more impressive, which to be clear is what they were getting hate for, because these games are still current generation titles and are still relevent. It's a false equivalence to say that Doom coming to the Switch is like an old game being ported to a new platform to bolster it's library, cause the game isn't old.
My stance on ports has been consistent. I got a Wii U because it was the console delivering actually truely new experiences, and I loved it. When I see the same Nintendo fans that were making fun of the PS4 because it was the "portstation 4" excuse ports like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Pokken Tournament, or mediocre sequels like Splatoon 2 .. it definitely enrages me.
Doom is not even close to that scenario though.
