If someone could take the time and port Nintendo Switch games to the Wii U, that would be amazing.
I'm freaking tired of wasting all my money just for a new console with good games.
Does this sound like a good idea?

Wii U is dead. Let it stay that way.

Sum1 pliz port to 3DS :ha:

Seriously though, this will never happen. You'd have (very little) more luck asking for someone to port wii u games to the switch.

Even though backporting would be possible in some way, you would have to completely dissassemble the game to c/c++ and alter it to work on a wii u (different graphics and shit), make the models more low poly probably, scale textures and everything, it would take years to do that, aka, it's not gonna happen.

A good idea but no, you can't.

We are glad that we didn't bought Wii U in the first place because of no 3rd party support. Me wise! :D

never thought some managed to do something like that, they deserve a medal lol
EDIT: eh it still not a full port, lots of stuff missing and broken so yeah I still stand by my statement that none has back ported succefully before

Maybe when we get a change to get the files of the Switch titles we can port the Squids and Splatoon track of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U with some Mod, because it's the same game and probably works similar, but IDK, other games like Xenoblade 2 that's just impossible.
