1) it wont get multiplat AAA games.
2) it wont matter, because like the Wii U that isnt the point of the system
3) Nintendo first party games will look great (they always do)

"Has Nintendo Given Up On Home Consoles?"
They gave up on getting 3rd party.
They gave up on trying to compete in terms of graphics.

I could see some multi-plats like maybe Batman (though a late port) and Dragon Quest XI and maybe even Final Fantasy VII Remake. 

I think Japanese devs will be more willing to do the work of downscaling for a NX version because the upside is much larger for Japanese devs since NX is likely going to be the market leader in Japan. So there's obvious incentive to want your biggest games available to the biggest game audience. 

Western devs though ... yeah. Nintendo's probably in tough there. I could see maybe Activision trying with COD for a year to see how it goes. 

Late ports dont work well on nintendo systems.

And nitnendo users generally dont support them, because... why should they? its a late port, and runs at less graphics settings than if they got it on another system.

Also Batman is a pretty demanding game, with half the power that could become a issue.

Same is true for FFVIIR, it looks pretty graphically intense.
