You're never "forced" to own anything. There's always the option of just skipping it. BOTW single-handedly carried the successful launch of one of the fastest selling systems ever.

A game does not necessarily have to be exclusive to be a killer app. If a game is desirable enough that people will buy the hardware it runs on in large numbers just to play it, then it is a killer app.

You're "forced" to own a Nintendo console if you wish to legally play BotW, yes.

By that logic you were "forced" to buy a Switch if you wanted to play it on a platform that wasn't trash and had a future, and if you wanted to play it on the go. It compelled the purchase of Switch units in vast quantities, even attaining an attach rate of over 100%, by being so desirable that people bought a Switch just to play it. Therefore, by definition, it was a killer app. The fact it also got a Wii u release is ultimately irrelevant.
