Maybe 15-20 years ago they were "premium products". Certainly not now
They're sitting on the legacy of being "premium" products. At this point they're only seen as premium because of game journalists who don't even play very many games giving them inflated scores so they don't lose out on future free games from Nintendo.
Bro, I want to be fucking 13 again. :/
It was alright back then. Not perfect, but alright.
The thing about these shitty remasters is that Nintendo doesn't make them themselves. They give them to these shitty companies who shit out half baked ports.
Looks worse, I'll give them the benefit of a doubt and hope they're just finishing it up
Same
They have already finished it and will ship it with no changes.
People are saying they'll update it like 3d all stars, but 3d all stars was developed inhouse. This is probably done by the team that made that shitty Donkey Kong port.
It's what Rockstar did to my beloved GTA III I am still butthurt over this ... . :/
Nothing about the Wii or Gamecube were "premium". If anything, Nintendo became what should be the budget option choosing for weaker hardware.
Nintendo is just the Apple of gaming consoles. Riding on name recognition and silly normalfag consoomer bullshit.

The GameCube was premium when it comes to power. It was more powerful than the PS2. It's only limitation was disk size. Wii was the first Nintendo console to not prioritize graphics.
Gamecube ports had better graphics and performance than ps2 ports, that console had a much better hardware than any other console outside of maybe xbox (but not that many games were released on that console so it doesn't really matter). Wii was pretty shit hardware wise and since then tendy only kept making weak consoles till Switch 2 which is much stronger than Switch 1 and Steam Deck. And that's why it's way more expensive.
Yeah now they are pretty much Apple but in the past they tried to innovate and create cool games.

Wii focus was full on casuals that's why they showed normies and their parents and grandparents playing shitty family games. It was similar to xbox360 that did the same thing with crappy kinect.
premium shit
I will say some games did utilize motion controls well near the end of its lifespan. Skyward Sword and Wii Sports Resort are a good example. Switch is a downgrade when it comes to motion controls.
I wish Nintendo would start experimenting with VR and combine it with motion controls.
Xbox games and everything ran so much better, but the library sucked and it was released later.
I'd say Gamecube and PS2 are comparable. Gamecube has the better specs and far better graphical capability, but PS2's CPU and memory could handle an impressive amount of tasks at the time. PS2 was basically made for old TVs which is why it looks weird with emulation and drastically higher resolutions now.

Nintendo won't even spend money to optimize tears of the kingdom for switch 1
