exactly, they should have offer both platform for user, if people wan cheaper and only portable, they can choose 2ds/3ds
they wan more premium and console , they can go for switch
but the problem now is they wan milk more money on 3ds/2ds, thats why they restricted to up-res and port to switch. I doubt its the technical issue which not allow the games to be ported to switch.
It's all about the business man. No point of having similar games on 2 platforms. It's better to have a differentiation to market your new platform. Why would I spend money to get new platform to play the same damn game I had on 3ds? they wan more premium and console , they can go for switch

Re-releases like Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon (Wii U) to Switch are not bad. They are nice but re-releases are double-edged sword.

3DS resolution is 240p. The Switch's resolution is 720p.
They just can't port the games without them looking horrible on the Switch's screen, they'll look even worse on TV - have you tried to see a FE:A gameplay video on HD in youtube? The figures look terrible!
Its easier to port from the Wii U because those are already HD graphics, I think most 3DS games would need remakes to look decent and that is far more expensive than merely porting. The games that have been ported from Wii U to 3DS are scaled down, and from my understanding, that is far easier than to upscale and make sure they look nice.
I don't think we'll se 3DS games as part of this gen's VC. And since they unified their dev teams into one single division, they shouldn't have problems pumping out hardware as to need to paddle the release schedule with 3DS ports.

It definitely matters.
