Hall of Famer
Not sure in what universe spending almost $500 on a system just for one game is considered "worth it". More so when I can buy the same game on the Wii U.
Because the next Mario and Smash Bros and Pokemon etc will be on the Switch. Knowing Nintendo's history, all of them will be good and massive time sinks. The Wii U is dying out, it happens with all older consoles.
Consider it a form of future-proofing.
