Did the Switch finally destroy Nintendo's "Kiddie" image?

That is why i provided the context of their first party line-up. You will not find anything there, not designed for children. And in my opinion the first party games are what define the console.

I disagree. Metroid, Breath of the Wild, Fire Emblem, and Xenoblade weren't designed for children. ARMS, Splatoon 2, Mario Odyssey were designed for general audiences, which includes kids yes, but they don't target kids primarily. Only Labo, Kirby, and Pokemon were explicitly designed primarily for kids. Labo's pretty much the only game where Nintendo came out and straight up said that its for kids. You don't need an M rating to target an older audience. Good advertising, aesthetic design, and quality gameplay have far stronger marketing pull than the black letter on the box. 

Can't say i agree.

Also an M rating just means that it isn't targeted towards children.
