They didn't care about what people who bought the Wii U copies of games felt. Almost every major wii u title became a Switch title instead.

Needless to say, when my friends started hitting me up to play Mario kart 8, I was very pissed that i had to explain to them that they couldn't play with me because i already had it in its original format and they didn't. I had to go rebuy it for switch later down the road.

I'd like to use this moment to say, the Wii U was one of my favorite consoles. The few games that REALLY utilized the second screen were incredible. The social aspect was one of the best, if not, THE BEST I've ever seen. Felt like such a slap in the face to see all the relaunches on the switch. I still have not purchased any re-release, except for Mariokart for tournament reasons.
