I own both a Wii U and a Switch. Switch is already far better. Here are some reasons I can see people choosing Switch over Wii U.
1) Switch already has much better third party support than the Wii U had.
2) Switch is a full portable console. Not only is the portability nice, but even if I want to play it handheld at home, I can play every single game. Wii U could only play a minority of games on the tablet.
3) Nintendo took WIi U off the market when the Switch released, because they wanted new customers to get the Switch Zelda instead of the Wii U version. The Wii U version was more for people who already had a Wii U.
4) Wii U never got a serious price drop that a lot of consoles get at the end of their life. A lot of people may have paid $150 - $200 to play the Wii U, but they never got a chance.
5) Switch is new and current and still has years left to get lots of new (non port) games. This is in addition to all of the ports which includes most of the Wii U's first party library.
