So this basically means Nintendo is going to make HD ports of the best Wii games... I approve of that.

Nintendo probably did a quick emulator.... its not really HD ports, its probably just old Wii games that run at higher resolutions, like what a PC emulator does.

If it can run on a shield, it can probably also run on the Switch too.

Its time for nintendo to put these titles in its nintendo virtual console.

There are plenty of quick ports, but emulators are anything but "quick".

I think you are overcomplicating things here: why would they, even if the effort required wasn't much more extensive? Port it to the Tegra and you automatically have a game adapted to run on both the Shield and the Switch. No point on doing it twice.
