The audience are similar still. The Switch and Wii U are aimed at hardcore Nintendo fans it just happens to be less fans bought the Wii U.

Its like how Black Ops 4 have the same audience  (fps fans) but that doesn't mean every fps fan will buy both games.

Switch is not aimed at the same audience as Wii U at all. Look at the advertising. Wii U was aimed at kids. Switch is aimed at 25-35 year olds.

25 and 35 year olds may not necessarily want to play vastly inferior versions of games though.

Also, I look at the sales of Wii U games. The top selling games on the platform look like the typical Nintendo audience for the most part. Probably because Switch isn't just the successor to Wii U, but the successor of the significantly more popular platform called 3DS.

I know Bethesda said their games have done well on Switch, but the numbers don't really reflect that in my opinion. PS4 and X1 did a better job selling 3rd party content at launch than Switch has in its life (that's a userbase argument I made).
