Tropical Freeze underperformed so badly on Wii U for multiple reasons.
1. Wii U bombed and most games failed to reach their potential.
2. Backlash from people wanting Retro to develop something else.
3. Wii U first party lineup was very platformer heavy with NSMBU, Luigi U & 3D World having already released.
I think it will perform much better this time since Switch is such a huge hit, backlash has calmed down and is now regarded as one of the best 2D platformers, and while Odyssey & Kirby are on Switch they play much differently (Odyssey is open world 3D, Kirby is very casual/kid friendly).
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
