Is not every single big title from Wii U already on Switch at this point? (I don’t play 3DS so I have no idea how that might affect this.) Switch is arguably Nintendo’s console ever. Yes, even stronger than SNES and GameBoy combined. |
WWHD and TPHD are missing. No idea why these games haven't been ported. |
Most of what Nintendo does is illogical to us. There are probably only two major reasons they're not on there, though.
1. Nintendo has plans for the games, either ports in 2026 for Zelda's 40th Anniversary or probably the old versions (in place of ports of HD versions) when they add GameCube and maybe Wii to NSO. You also have to keep in mind maybe it's a Zelda scheduling thing. I know they would just be ports, but there was the Link's Awakening remake and Skyward Sword HD in between the releases of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. And there was even a new Hyrule Warriors game. Adding in the HD games from Wii U might make that too crowded for Nintendo.
2. Nintendo has no plans and just doesn't want to release them for whatever budget or logistical reason.
But you're right. Most games that should be on Switch from Wii U are. I all but guarantee Wii U will lose even more exclusives with the next system as more of its titles will get remasters or even remakes.
