Yeah, masterpiece game are very rarely games, and it's even more  rarely than one platform have two of them in first year like Switch. IMO Nintendo Land is better game than Wii Sports, Wii Sports just had huge casual appealing. Mario Galaxy definatly had bigger impact on market but SM3DW was also great game. Like you wrote, Wii U did actualy got even bigger game than Zelda TP. I agree that NSMBU is basically NSMB HD, but DKTF was not DKCR HD and was great game. Also we can mentione Pikmin 3 thats actually best Pikmin game, or Smash Bros 4. and MK8 that are probably best games in franchises, Super Mario Maker is also great game, Splatoon 2, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, great Yoshi game...ad to that some ports like WW/TP HD...so totaly disagree, Wii U had some relly great and must have games, but had short full suport from Nintendo (only around 3 years) beacuse console was fail and Nintendo didnt want to invest any more in failed platform. I would actually arguing that Wii U has more quality games than 3DS if we compare number of quality games compared to number of all games released.

We agree to disagree, then. But in the end software sells hardware and the software on Wii U didn't sell many consoles. And I don't even want to get into that discussion if you really argue that Nintendoland was better than Wii Sports :p Wii Sports was a worldwide phenomenon that single-handedly sold millions of Wii consoles around the globe, found its way into pop culture and was featured in the news for months after its release. Nintendoland probably didn't appeal to anyone outside the hardcore Nintendo fanbase. 

Well huge difference is that Wii U start receiving heavy hitters when consoles was already considered fail and nothing couldn't save it (while Switch has multiply hevy hitters and system seller games in 1st 9 months on market), but fact is that Wii U ended at end with some great games. Like I wrote, Wii Sports was worldwide phenomenon beacuse was great game for casuals and people that never before played any game, its game for 3-99 years old, but Nintendo Land was much more interesting game for core gamers, and for me Nintendo Land is easily better game. More popular and more apeling game for market doesnt mean its better game, Wii Sports has 76 metascore and despite that sold tens of millions Wii consoles to people that never before had any console.
