First off, we have not a single idea about what is coming after july, besides smash. so that cant be made yet. 

And those games not selling were not the games fault, it was the WiiU's fault for being a shitty console that no one wanted to buy.

That's absolutely not true, the saying "software sells hardware" still rings true to this very day as platforms live and die by it's library ... 

PS4's victory over it's competitor the X1 was skewed by just a few games even though both largely shared a similar library and it's because of the fact that Sony convinced customers that these very few exclusive games mattered to an extent that it became the tipping of their purchases ...

There's tons of blunders that Nintendo did with WII U software. For instance, why was their Wii franchise largely absent on their new system ? Were SM3DW as good as SMG ? (that goes for SSB, MP8, DKC as well compared to their predecessor's) Why wasn't Zelda ready at the beginning of WII U's launch ? Where was Animal Crossing ? 

Along with WII U's missing third party games, Nintendo itself pulled so much shit off with the WII U ... 

You are way oversimplifying.

A console needs high quality software, a steady output of software and a wide variety of software.

Outside of software there is also hardware features & design, marketing/advertising, price.

 

A console needs to hit all or most of these things in order to be a mainstream success, so far Switch has all of them while Wii U was missing almost all of them.

 

So hes right, you cant use the lame excuse of, "those games didnt sell Wii U so would why they sell Switch?"
