This is probably the best point made in the thread. It's hard to argue against it being a replacement to a failure, a reset type deal. 🤔 

Isnt this the point of the successors: being a replacement of the previous consoles?

Porting last gen games to the next system isn't a thing that only happened to WiiU -> Switch

In other words: The NSW was intended to be a second life for Wii U. It wasn’t created with the purpose of moving on from the Wii U — like how any typical successor system would — but rather serve as a rebranding. Almost like how DS Lite was to DS OG, though a little bit more extreme.
