Ofcourse if there is barketing, high price, not appealing gimmick, not must have games, weak support...that average consumer will not want to buy it.

Actually PS3/Xbo360 were around $249 and people really didn't had any reason to buy Wii U instead of them because reasons I mention.

Like I wrote, message about Switch from trailer is very simple and clear, there is no any confusion out there, so totally different than Wii U. Ofcourse that Skyrim is coming to Switch, Bethesda confimred partnersihp and suport for Switch, and there is zero chanche that Nintendo would show 3rd party game runing on system if they are not 100% sure that game is coming on system. It's very obvious that Nintendo holding all amendments of games for later date. Why Switch will have better 3rd party than Wii U!? Because of better sales, main reason why 3rd party abandoned Wii U in 1st year is catastrophic sales of Wii U. Thats only one rumour about battery, other rumor saying mediocre batter while Nintendo said "that the whole thing was designed so that users could play as long as possible, “comfortably”, even in places where you don’t have access to a power outlet."

Actually tablet is around 6". Well tens of millions of people caring tablets and phablets. No, definatyl not aiming directly same consumers like PS4/XB1, like I wrote aiming NIntendo fans, mobile users, casuals, kids and families, secondary console for PS4/XB1 users.. Lol of course that will stand incompatible much better than Wii U, even now after just one trailer has much more positive reaction than Wii U, not to mention Wii U mistakes..

I acutally looked up the price of PS3s when the Wii U came out. They were $299.

If you think this console is totally different than WIi U, then we don't really have anything to discuss because that's ridiculous. Moving the processing of the console from the base to the controller does not make it totally different.

Bethesda refused to confirm that Skyrim was coming to Switch. That's a fact. It's currently not known whether Skyrim will ever be playable on Switch.

If Switch is going to have better third party support  than Wii U because of sales, why didn't Wii have better third party supprt? The wii sold better than the Switch ever will. Third parties abandoned the Wii U because of catastrophic sales of third party games on the Wii U. Nintendo has had no trouble churning out million + selling Wii U games on that small sales bases, but Third party games sold terribly in comparison. Why was that? Why will this time be different?

The main concept they tried to sell with the WiiU was dual screen play. The Switch totally moved away from that. Yeah, it's definitely a quite different concept.
