It has a touchscreen. Emily Rogers and Laura Kate have both said so, and since they basically got everything else right I'd say they deserve the benefit of the doubt.

Besides, it would be completely idiotic not to have one anyway. How would Mario Maker work on NS? How would DS/3DS Virtual Handheld work? Let alone just OS and modern game play it would gimp the system in many other aspects. What if Nintendo wanted Super Mario Run or Pokemon Go or versions of some of their mobile games?

Who the hell even makes LCD panels of that size that aren't touch based, lol. It's not 2003 anymore.

Are you suggesting handheld-mode-only games?

Uh yeah?

Switch has to accomodate ALL of Nintendo's IP, not just some. 

How is a Mario Maker game supposed to work? How is DS backwards compatibility/VHH supposed to work? What if Nintendo wants to make a new Brain Training? Or Clubhouse Games? A new Nintendogs? Or a touch-based Kirby game? This has to be able to play them all, not just some of them. 

It has a touchscreen anyway. It's already been confirmed by multiple sources who got everything basically correct, so this is not really a "debate". It has it.
