I know it's a joke, but a lot of the information is inaccurate.
For example, Lego City Undercover on the Switch is $30 new.

Breath of the Wild is much more stable on Switch than Wii U (I know -- I've played both versions, plus Digital Foundry confirmed this.) One can actually connect a Wii U Pro controller, PS4, XBO, Wii Classic Controller, etc with a $25 accessory ( https://www.amazon.com/Mayflash-Nintendo-Magic-NS-Wireless-Controller-Windows/dp/B07413R4HS ) or buy cheaper third party controllers for the Switch which have decent d-pads.
Splatoon 2, Arms, Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle are all good to great games that you can't play on Wii U (Splatoon 1's servers are emptier and Splatoon 2 is overall more relevant.)
I use the Switch constantly as a portable gaming device, both while commuting and at home. Whereas the Wii U's low quality gamepad wasn't all that fun to play on in comparison.
And then there is the matter that the Wii U costs money to purchase, and if one is interested in future Switch exclusives, they'll have to buy a Wii U and a Switch, which means they don't really save anything unless they sit on the Wii U until it gains value as a classic console (which might not ever happen. Dreamcasts are like $70-$90 on eBay, and there are fewer in existence than Wii U's.) So maybe in the end of it all they'll save money (as their games gain some value) or they just break even.
Of course, it is a parody, so I shouldn't over-analyze it too much. Lol
