the question is how did anyone care enough to notice, if you didn't buy it in the four years since it came out you weren't going to buy it now.
you can still get the disc version for under $20 i've definitely seen it for under $10 before if that price didn't tempt you nothing will.

I personally loved the Wii U, I still play it to this day! I'm glad Nintendo hasn't let it die completely yet.

Inferior is subjective. The original was easy enough that I didn't need an easy mode, so the changes don't matter at all to me.
The removal of it from the Wii U eShop doesn't matter a whole lot. People can still get a physical copy if they want it and don't own a Switch. Most people who have a Wii U probably already played it.
Honestly I am shocked that there is still a Wii U eShop. Nintendo dropped support for the Wii U before the Switch was even released, so I was expecting the eShop to drop just as quickly. Nintendo really seems ashamed of how poorly the Wii U preformed.
Doesn't make much sense to shut it down when it's largely using the same servers as the 3DS. As long as it's making them some money that is.
If it starts costing them more than they're making from it they'll no doubt shut it down.

I find the outrage and hate toward Nintendo to be a bit overblown over this (prior to it being added back in). As stated, the game came out several years ago. Anyone who wanted it on Wii U would have likely bought it, already. And saying taking it off to force people to buy it on Switch may be a jerk move, but it's a sound business decision. You don't see car lots with brand-new 2012 cars sitting on their lots with new 2018s.
