I have to admit, I expected Nintendo to showcase a few more Wii U ports for the Switch during E3 last month. It seemed logical; Nintendo had released several new first party titles last year (Breath of the Wild, ARMS, Splatoon 2, Fire Emblem Warriors, Super Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade Chronicles 2) but their slate for this year is quite bare in comparison.

Remastered Wii U titles would have been good fillers to keep the sales momentum going – because game assets are already existing, the task of remastering can easily be farmed to second and third party studios and not take any development time away from Nintendo. And we all know that the Wii U did not sell well, so I’m sure there are Switch owners who did not get the chance to play some Wii U exclusives that were really good.

E3 has come and gone but that doesn’t…
